Potentially the biggest disappointment for PS4 owners next year. Vapid QTE's. forced stealth and instant death if you don't 'read the mind' of the devs for their cover mechanics, it's looking really fucking grim tbh.

I love Steampunk this is one game I was really hoping they wouldn't **** up. Sucks.

I dunno, I'm holding my judgment. Some people who have played it claim the QTEs are infrequent and that they had a generally great time. I certainly won't pre-order (never do, any more). I agree, though, that even if those problems are infrequent, the game will be worse for wear. I dunno why devs insist on including QTEs, for example. Who likes QTEs?

Yeah... From what I have seen it isn't looking great... Almost every preview has been negative.

not true, havent read a single negative impression from the playstation experience demo. infact most people have done a 180 from not being excited to saying it is on the top of their list now.

Too bad. I had high hopes about this title -- I love the setting and the theme. Let's not hope it turns into "Ryse"...

I'll hold my judgement until the game comes out but from the videos I've seen it looks meh at best. Kinda disappointing really...

The demo looked good visually, that much I can agree on

what is there to complain about? it showed action, stealth, de emphasis on QTEs, amazing graphics.... and the impressions from journalists regarding the controls and gunplay have been extremely positive.

I have no complaints, there have just not shown anything that grabs me.

@mdk12345: It is your loss if you will not play PS4 games that are not exclusives. I'll play any PS4 game that interests me. Remastered or multi platform, it really doesn't matter to me as long I enjoy the games. Guess you will be missing out on some interesting games like Batman Arkham Knight, The Witcher 3, Final Fantasy XV, etc. since you will be waiting for Uncharted 4... Also, PS4 games are not that expensive if you look for good deals. Every new game will cost like $60 when it first comes out, but will be cheaper over time. Look at Amazon prices today for PS4 games... Dragon Age: I for $40, Shadows of Mordor for $40, The Evil Within for $25, The Last of Us for $30, Call of Duty: AW for $40, Infamous: Second Son for $30, Diablo 3 for $30, etc.

@noblecowboy: I think this is the right attitude - why don't multiplats "count" as games for some folks? Fun is fun. Same with the anti-indie brigade... I don't care who published it, if anyone. Is it fun? If the answer is yes then I'm interested

I'm not sure what you have seen but there are a few people like videogamer.com that had issues with the demo and they played it. I don't like QTE's if you don't do it perfectly and you get instantly killed. I don't like the fact in the stealth part if you get spotted you die instantly.

Guys I didn't want to post a downer post on a game I was really looking forward to but the negative response from reviewers who have had early access is a bit discouraging. It may well turn out I'll play the damn thing and love it but I HATE QTE's and am not massively enamoured with stealth mechanics that adhere to pre-written rules.

It wasn't a flamebait post. Truth is the PS4 is my 'upstairs game machine' and I am loving the multiplats particularly DAI I'm just waiting for the big hitters like everyone else. This was my own personal 'big hitter' and it looks totally naff. Alternative viewpoint is keep your expectations low and it might just knock your socks off. Evil Within as an i.e. was massively underwhelming after all the hype and the less said about fucking Destiny the better!

Most of the previews that I've read have been mixed, but from my own perspective of the new gameplay footage, I've seen improvement.

It looks great don't understand peoples problems, who cares about QTE it's about time we got a decent story driven linear game instead of all these predictable boring open worlds were getting.

I think it looks great.

Liked what I saw from the PSX demo.
