I have faith in it!
Way different from what I expected but looks really good.
guy at 0:21 reminded me of some old Nathan Drake.
Faith's facial structure looks really different from the first game, but at least she doesn't look like that horrible render from a few months back. Also it looks like this game really cares about the story now. Can't wait for the soundtrack. Too bad I don't have a PC or Next gen console to play it on :P
Looks good. I feel like it's going in a good direction for the type of game that it is. However it looks like it's going a little bit like Deus Ex where the prequels end up having better technology in their worlds.
The facial animation in this trailer wasn't all that great
Oh shit, that drone riding at 1:33. I wonder how that's going to work out in gameplay.

[QUOTE=HazzaHardie;49671703]The facial animation in this trailer wasn't all that great[/QUOTE] I don't know, It looks pretty acceptable.
Not sure how I feel about the heavy story aspect. Hopefully they either write a halfway decent story or it stays out of your way like in ME so you can appreciate the god-tier art and environments.

The parkour is nice, but when do we get to see some new gunplay?

Remember how the first mirror's edge was first advertised by actual gameplay - they just showed the first section of the first level, until the jump to the pipe. It was simple and to the point and showed exactly what the game was about.
Looks good enough so far, but I still won't be happy until I see proper gameplay. Any emphasis on gunplay and I'm gonna be pissed.

Now pretty much every game has parkour elements, so it won't sell based on that alone.
[QUOTE=kapin_krunch;49672375]Looks good enough so far, but I still won't be happy until I see proper gameplay. Any emphasis on gunplay and I'm gonna be pissed.[/QUOTE] Well Faith can't pickup guns now. So a focus on them is impossible.
[QUOTE=Genericenemy;49672562]Well Faith can't pickup guns now. So a focus on them is impossible.[/QUOTE] Oh shit, really? I'm fucking down with this then. Also, am I making shit up or did they say last year at E3 this game was open world as well?
Something's off about the voices and/or faces, like they don't belong together; feels like I was watching a movie in the background
[QUOTE=kapin_krunch;49672644]Oh shit, really? I'm fucking down with this then. Also, am I making shit up or did they say last year at E3 this game was open world as well?[/QUOTE] Yes, its also open world.
[QUOTE=Fish_poke;49672526]That's because it was pretty unique back then. Now pretty much every game has parkour elements, so it won't sell based on that alone.[/QUOTE] Yeah except every single thing they showed in that trailer is rehashed generic trite so that's even worse.
[QUOTE=kapin_krunch;49672375]Looks good enough so far, but I still won't be happy until I see proper gameplay. Any emphasis on gunplay and I'm gonna be pissed.[/QUOTE] I'm not sure, but I think there was mentioned somewhere that, on the contrary, there will be no guns available to the player. Again, I'm not really sure if I read that right.
Looks good, not great but good enough that it's gotten me interested. I still have gripes. I wish it didn't go the futuristic route. I liked it how the first one was much more grounded. And I prefer the eerily clean look of the first game. Everything here looks grimy and not in a aesthetically pleasing way. Mirror's Edge 1 still looks unique and beautiful whewreas this just looks like a typical sci-fi setting. And to top it off the music sounds boring and generic compared to the first game's amazing soundtrack. It just doesn't stand out that much, And considering half of what made ME interesting WAS the setting and aesthetic, that can be an issue. Especially when parkour in games isn't novel on its own anymore. It needs something else to rely on, and I have my doubts about the story. I don't think it'll be as good as the first in some- if not most- ways, but I'm just glad it's getting a sequel and they aren't make it into a shooter.
[QUOTE=Amiga OS;49672189]This one? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/6gIFT4vl.jpg[/IMG][/QUOTE] good photoshop though
And I thought the city looked amazing to live in the first game, now even more so
[QUOTE=Skyward;49673016]And to top it off the music sounds boring and generic compared to the first game's amazing soundtrack.[/QUOTE] Solar Fields is doing the soundtrack for this game, too. They probably used more "generic" music for the trailer, but there's a preview of the game music. IMO even if the game isn't that great, I think they still have the soundtrack right.
