I've been saying this forever. It's a PS3+ graphically...but it's the gameplay that excites the niche crowd this game will draw.

It's going to be a good game, but graphically it's not going to excel. There is always the possibility of a sequel if we see amazing sales.

I've been saying it since forever too, however it has always been the case that people bashed me for it. What is more, they were claiming otherwise, that it's one of the most graphically impressive titles into this gen so far...BTW I don't have an agenda since I'm an enthusiast of Souls-like games.

The dev just isn't known for graphics and it's a 1st gen game. The only upside is it's not cross gen, but due to the smaller dev size and other factors it's not a next gen looker from what I've seen, but it's far from horrible. It's competent and above average. To be fair, that vid is a first look from an early build, but I don't expect too much from the studio with regards to graphics. Gameplay is another thing entirely.

That said, it has the pedigree behind it to be a great game, let's hope Miyazaki delivers.

The demo looked cool enough.

Some things I noticed - they're still using that shitty lighting on your character that causes just the area around you look light up. I also did not see any lips moving for the NPC character you see at the end. And that camera during the boss fight - just horrible. Sure, it's an early build but I hope they clear it up in the final version. Level design seems really good so far. I just hope they won't put bullshit levels like the Crystal Caves(?) in Dark Souls. ****, that was just terrible.

The saw-cleaver is one bad-ass weapon.

Because the game will be good enough that it won't need to fall back on pretty graphics for it to be considered worth playing.

Looks terrible, but would you prefer a game like the Order where it looks amazing yet plays like complete crap? Gameplay > graphics.

True, TC is right, maybe the graphics could be better, though I imagine they'd have to sacrifice the Souls signature seamless world design. They'd have to introduce loading screens, restrict the freedom to explore, and confine things into smaller sets to achieve a higher level of performance. Personally I prefer they keep the seamless world design. Besides, graphics look good enough for the type of game it is, and it's appeal doesn't seem to be in the graphics but the challenging (sometimes brutal) gameplay.

I've played uncharted, its not a good game (in my opinion) Boring mixture of below average steal and below average TPS, with player control taken away alot and too much cut scenes. Hell i even went back and tried UC2 on PSnow to see if maybe I missed something the 1st time with all the good talks it gets around here. , got about 90 minutes in and said **** it I'm bored. Sneaking around a museum with dumb security guards after dealing with an hour of climbing and cut scenes before that is not my idea of fun.

Graphics are just fine. Better than the last games and show a lot of detail. Hope the game runs very smoothly though.

And i could say you have shitty taste, and then we go nowhere. how about adding in something constructive? what does UC do well? stealth? its outclassed by games like MGS or splinter cell? TPS? outclassed by tomb raider and gears. Its not anything great its just a mix of average game mechanics. As far as bloodborne goes, we don't really know. yes the souls series has a good following, but its not my type of game due to the slow clunky combat and trial and error type advancement. In short, i find both series (souls and uncharted boring) your more then welcome to disagree with that, cause opinions and all, but just saying your taste in games suck, is a dumb statement, as I can say the same to you, and we would both be right according to opinions. which really means nothing

Um you just listed a bunch of subjective bullshit, but ill gladly go down the list. Is the stealth good as MGS or SC? No its not but the TPS is far better then either of those games. For you to say Gears or Tomb raider is a better TPS is hilarious, TR straight ripped off UC TPS mechanics, there almost identical and both are far better and more dynamic then gears of war. The melee combat in gears is a joke, there is no platforming , no climbing and shooting and not to mention every enemy is a bullet sponge. That's not to knock Gears of War because it came out much earlier then either and it was a good game but UC does pretty much everything better. That's what makes UC great it does so many things up there with the best of the games in its genre. How many Third person shooting games had platforming, vertical integration applied in the levels, great animations and nice melle combat all in one package? All while being one of the most visually impressive games of its time. As for Bloodborne it seems much faster paced then Demonsouls but its not your type of game you cant blame those who are hyped for a game from a developer that has released three AAA titles in a row not to mention I have yet to read one negative preview of the game. Im curious what games do you like on PS at all? You seem to do nothing but bash it.

as much as im hyped AF for this title, i have to agree, graphics are abysmal. Its an improvement from DkS2 but DkS2 looked like shit to begin with so this improvement isn't much of an improvement. LOOOOOOOOOVE FROMSOFT but their tech engineers/engine is garbage. I hoped for a change this gen but it looks like they're 7 years behind when it comes to visuals.

Visually it looks fine. Exquisite even. My primary concern is From Software staying too close to the tried and true from their last three games.

Im curious what games do you like on PS at all? You seem to do nothing but bash it.

I never said it wasn't subjective, But gears is pretty universally known as having the best TPS mechanics. Sure there is no climbing because its a straight TPS not an action platformer TPS stealth mix like UC is. TR might have ripped off UC mechanics (in your mind since you know tomb raider has been out much longer like in since the PS1 days) but its really UC that ripped off TR but doesn't do it as well. The reboot did the mixture perfectly. The melee in gears is perfect. How is it a joke? you talk subjective BS but then throw it out yourself. wall bouncing 2 piece with a gnasher is just perfect. the combo of melee, shooting, and movement results in a perfect combat system. ALso some weapons have the OSK melee kill like the retro lancer but requires timing and risk but totally worth it and of course the lancer chainsawing people in half. the canned melee in UC doesn't come close. You obviously never played gears. The last line, well thats the main issue with system wars. People think if you don't personally like a game, then you are bashing it, then they think you are bashing it because you don't like the platform. In other words, its people's own stupidity that leads to thinking that. I said I don't give a dam about forza or killer instinct or screamride but that's fine with you. But i say I don't give a dam about blooborne or drive club and I'm bashing it. The truth is the PS3 era pretty much sucked for me. Most of the games I liked from PS in the 1 and 2 era, are either dead or I grew out of or went multiplatform or a combination of the 3. I used to love MGS, FF, Devil may cry, GTA, Twisted metal, resident evil, tomb raider, GT, Ridge racer, tekken, wipeout. But i grew bored of fighting games and racers. I don't play them anymore. I don't play JRPGs i'm not a teenager anymore, they don't appeal to me. I assume most people that like them are teens or pre-teens. Again it doesn't make them bad, they just aren't for me. God of war is my favorite sony series. Its awesome and its fun. The order was the perfect type of game I wanted. They just failed at it sadly. I don't really care for any of their other series. LBP, GT, DC, Naughty dog games, KZ, Infamous, all decent to not very good (IMO) So basically just god of war and then whatever new IPs they come up with this gen. You never know when you get a great series, but we always get them. For me last gen it was mass effect and gears. I play RPGs, FPS, TPS, Sandbox/open world games, Action, platformers. I don't play fighting, Stealth, racing, JRPGs, or indies. Those games bore me.

a gaming PC is

I have both

PS4 equivalent to a low end gaming PC which is about $600

$400 < $600
