Just played the new demo.
Ok I want my hour back. This is one of the worst demos I've ever played. This demo plays like a pre-alpha test of a game. If this is any clue to how the real game will be...good god, what have they been doing for all these years of development?
1. The character animations are really bad. Strafing has no animation. WoW looks better than this game.
2. The graphics are fucking terrible. It looks like a game from 2002. No joke. The character models are decent. Maybe decent is going too far. How about "ok."
3. The level design is at least 5 years dated. Really bad.
4. I like the premise. Hacking and slashing and shooting is funner than clicking once to do everything. But when the graphics suck dick, the animations suck dick, and the controls suck dick, it's simply not fun. Why is there a camera view change when you jump. Why is jumping clunky and unresponsive. Why can you not attack and jump at the same time. WHY IS THERE NO STRAFE ANIMATION
5. Shit like this just can't be released in 2007. Sorry but it can't. People say graphics don't matter, just gameplay. Bullshit. This game looks like it's from 2002, plays like it's from 1999, and has a plot that is non-existant. The menus are dated and grungy.
6. If someone released this game as freeware I would say it was interesting, but only barely interesting. Instead this is a real game and I can't believe they're charging for it. Again, what have they been doing for the past few years.
7. OK, so the graphics suck. BUT WHY DOES IT RUN LIKE ASS ON MY PC?? It's one thing to look like ass, but it's another to look like ass AND run like ass for no reason. Slowdown in indoor areas?? Are you kidding??
This game sucks.
