Heavenly Sword update (E3 cometh..)

BLOOD? ?????????????????????????????

:sobs:

 

I was thinking more along the lines of keeping the show at E3 "kid friendly". So they could have told NT to cut the gore for the show, and they can put it back in the final game, which can have any kind of rating on release. Or maybe NT themselves came up with the idea...

I don't see why the final game wouldn't have blood, it seems a bit silly, considering it's a game centered on killing people with 2 huge swords...

 

Just whack them on the head really strong with the side of the swords ?

 

You mean bash them into a pulp with the blunt edge of the sword? That is even more lovely

 

Thanks for the GS HD footage Stillmatic. It looks tremendous, easily amongst the most impressive stuff i've seen about. Very fluid and visceral. If the outdoor areas maintani this level of quality it'll be even more impressive. Looking forward to it.

Only gripe is I noticed LOD pop on some of the guards during the custcene about halfway through the demostration.

 

Anyone else notice how the screenshots are looking a lot worse than the HD gameplay videos? Seems like everything has been tweaked a lot from textures to lighting...

 

devs

hair is clipping all over the place. Well, pointless me being here saying that because you know that already, obviously, but it does look kind of bad clipping like that.
like DOA4 hair crossing the arms and stuff

 

Ninja Theory strikes again!!! Heavenly sword looks grrrreat and it looks to play grrreat too which is something next gen games have been a little lax in accomplishing.

Thank you Ninja Theory for the incredible amount of diligence you're all putting into making this one heck of a game.

Awesome work!!!

 

My main problem with this game is that it's bound to be a short one. Ninja Theory you guys are doing an awesome job and must be under lots of pressure to get this delivered by end of September.

There's just no way this game will be more than 6 or 7 hours of gameplay. Can I be wrong? There aren't any miracles to create 12 levels of art assets God of War wasn't extremely long either, but second gen 360 games like Too Human and Gears of War are streching to 20 hours and having lots of different environments. I hate to say it but Heavenly Sword looks like the perfect game to buy for $39 in Fall 2007 or Spring 2008 or whenever Sony finally price drops PS3 to a reasonable price.

 

Where's the link for the itw Titanio plz? Thx.

 

Oh? Well Ive already seen it I guess, thx though...

 

The designer in the Gametrailers.com interview mentions 'next year'...

 

Let's hope January 2007.

 

Maybe it's just that still screens give you a chance to focus on flaws while with video you're watching the action.

I like the look of this a lot, my favorite of the PS3 showings, but what was shown of the gameplay doesn't do much for me. Hopefully it'll be a lot deeper than fighting mobs in an arena and the like. Anyway nice one Deano, nA0, etc.

 

The character models are noticeable different in the screenshots and in the E3-floor videos.

 

I just want to say Im absolutely awed by the animation. I wasn't expecting it to move like that during gameplay. The variety, smoothness and seamlessness, man it just looks so alive and dynamic. Its the kind of leap Ive been hoping for next gen. The designer in the GT interview mentioned they're using mo-cap which surprised me consideirng how fluid it is. He also said they're mixing some procedural elements as well I think but I couldnt make it out. Kudos to NT!
