i can't imagine a scenario where this game meets expectations.
Looks fine to me. The few random frame drops are silly though.

the character looks clumsy as fuck
This looks great, I can't wait to play it. It looks like it controls really similarly to Shadow of the Colossus and also has the really great animations that SoC had. I'm not sure what about this makes it a disappointment. The gameplay looks to be pretty in line with all the trailers they've shown off so far. I was a bit iffy on the weird cel-shading of the kid, but it doesn't look that bad here. Maybe I've just gotten used to it, though.

Those button prompts are hideous
Cant really hate the game for a preview which is a work in progress, It looks really fun but a big buggy (which will be fixed, Hopefully) and polygon cant play games for fuck.
Just reskin uncharted or tomb raider, put a giant hyenabird in it and call it a day.

What I'm saying is, other than remapping all the levels, a lot of the things are already in other high budget action adventure games. It's just that the comment is completely unserious. Mechanics and gameplay-wise, it seems like it would do a lot better with a port of how Lara plays with some tweaking.

The mechanics of climbing and shit are from ICO and Shadow of the Colossus. This game looks like it'll play like ICO with a linear puzzle story-ish driven gameplay, but instead of the girl to guide around, it's a giant feathery puppy.
[QUOTE=noh_mercy;51057598]the character looks clumsy as fuck[/QUOTE] normally i'd argue that, this being a Team Ico game, that's kind of a recurring theme.... but this looks like a straight-up technical failure instead of a conscious design decision
