    so the npc's just walk around you and rarely attack ? >.

    What allen said. And +5 brown points.

  • Perrythegreat #3 5 years ago

    That was quite lackluster actually. This was a must buy, now it'll be a wait on the review.....

  • mash the x button #4 5 years ago

    That looks reasonably rubbish.

    Supercrap. Milling mooks that don't even defend themselves and ridiculous anims and clipping. I'm certain half of the dead were never hit with the guy's sword. Also, "Elven terrorist" and "Dwarven terrorist" - I lol'd.

    So the war on terrorism has caught up with fantasy games? ;)

    Ah, and the fighting was as usual more for show than for common sense, let alone realism.

    Elven and dwarven terrorist are okay, because they were featured in The Witcher books. And those were published way before the war on terror started. What's even better - you'll understand, that elven and dwarven terrorism makes perfect sense in that world, as soon as you read those books.
    But the video really is a bit rubbish. :(

    What a bunch of weird comments.

    This is an RPG based on the Aurora engine, not Devil May Cry. By far the best animations seen yet in that genre. Maybe you should watch the other trailers to understand how the combat actually works.

    As for the enemies in the end not doing much - they're probably a dozen levlels below the character in that video, you can see how they get interrupted.

    Noobs. :p
