How is the open world bad? There are still levels with more directed, linear design. How the fuck is an open world with explorable shit bad you weirdo? I'll agree it looks the same and the animations haven't changed at all. I'm not as hyped as I was way back when it was announced.
Can you play the first one with a rift/ any VR yet? I just want my stomach to drop.

How many games will this open world shit ruin?
>>334283669
NIGGER WHAHHHHHHHT
!??!? How does that affect the GAMMME!? The first one had the most retarded story in the world! What could possibly be worse? Why would feminism matter even the slightest bit!?! What is wrong with you? Talk about the fucking game. In my opinion, it looks like they generally have improved upon the groundwork the first laid out. My main complaint was the first was fun, but there wasn't enough of it, and what there was had too much shit that got in the way of the fun.
>>334284152
Okay, okay... okay, I get the meme. I get the meme. I do. I get that open world is bad meme. I get it dude. But this is a game about parkour, about navigating a city, about avoiding the authorities, about finding routes, about jumping across rooftops. how the fuck is open world a bad direction for a game like that?
Her high fall recovery is weird; what happened to the roll she used to do in the original? Now she lands right on her feet/hands and likely snaps her joints in the process. I do like how quick the melee animations are though, a bit disappointed that the actual running just seems...slow. Like Faith's jogging rather than sprinting.
>dat speed
>dose visuals
>de red doors and sense of familiarity
I don't even care if its got a bunch of shitty writing crammed in your face, that looked great.
>>334284281
I don't think the player really pressed LT to do the soft landing
>>334284281
did you watch the video? She still rolls. And the running starts slow just like it did in the first game. It's all about picking up and then maintaining speed, rather than just jumping from zero to full speed in an instant.
>>334284158
the game looks terrible too.
>vignette
>animations look terrible
>faith looks mongolian, not japanese
>open world, which means less well designed levels overall
>>334283065
Holy shit this looks awful.
>>334284267
Because open world often lack good level design and in a parkour game it's the most important part
>>334284281
The guy playing is a retard and forgot to press it
>>334284267
Did you play the first game? It was linear as hell, and for a damned reason, fluidity and level design.
>that god awful enemy health bars
Just why?
>>334284000
How is an open world better? The level design will be worse and an open world will get boring really fast because there probably won't be anything to do in that world except following the main story anyway.

Are you serious ? What the dumb fuck are they thinking
>>334284382
Yeah, the vignette thing is gay.
Not sure what you're on about with the animations, they look the same as the first game, which works for me.
Who the FUCK cares what the MC looks like in a FPS
Open world could mean that, to me simply means it will have more SHIT to do than the original. I'm not a time trial person and in the first game had basically nothing else to do once you beat it except for time trials. At least now there will be new routes and stuff to explore. They might make a fun city, who knows. I was mostly calling you out on making your first complaint about the game muh feminism (Sarkeesian's involvement was a rumor, I'm pretty sure anyway)
>>334284427
I suppose it's true that the open world will likely hurt the level design, but there are still going to be linear sequences within the game. Level design is one thing, but freedom and creativity are another, and having an excessively designed level robs the player of any freedom to experiment in a lot of cases. It was super frustrating in the original when I found the obviously "correct" route through a level and felt punished for taking any kind of an alternative just for fun. That said, I share all your worries.

See my response here:
>>334285192
basically I feel like there will still be plenty of linear content, and the open world will simply allow for more relaxed exploration and parkour-route finding. I don't know man. I'm bored at work and just arguing for the sake of taking the opposing side, the game is gonna be fucking shit obviously.

>arrows literally pointing the way to go

Holy shit, it's almost as if it was catered to Anita sarkeesian
>>334284000
The difference between an open world and a game with actual levels is that an open world is essentially just one level with its elements copy pasted one hundred times over a large area.
>>334285612
no nig, rolling IS an unlock, as is the 180 degree spin, and some other more "advanced" moves, this is confirmed. See the PCgamer hands on.
>>334283065
All those years I waited for sequel and now I am disgusted with this thing. Is this what women feel when playing games? Is EA trying to emulate their experience through this game? Is this VR? Fucking horible. I wish the game died.
>>334285508

>>334285721
Then why would it tell the player to press it there? LT is crouch/slide, there's no reason to crouch or slide there. Crouch/slide was the button that did the roll in the original too.
>>334285654
Yes, but the difference between this game and far cry is that this game will have uniquely designed interiors whereas far cry is just copy paste bullshit buildings. I'm not swearing up and down it will be good. I'm saying it has the chance to be.
>>334285489
By that logic, a typical Mario platform game is fucking up by not having a skill progression system. I should have every tool at my disposal. If I fuck up, its my fault I didn't use the skill. It shouldn't be I specked my parkour girl wrong.
>>334285751
I hate this, Old runner's vision reminded me of that Action Man shit from ages ago.
So basically they managed to have an open world like they wanted from the start when they thought about the first game? How terrible.
>>334285806
Because it's unlocked in the build the player is using. The GAME itself will have these moves locked behind an experience wall. That's the matter that was being questioned. Not whether or not the roll was possible at all.
>>334285831
agreed. I'm still skeptical though.
>>334285778
no not really
Guards are fucking braindead.
>>334285775
To be fair there's like one instance in ME where the cops don't immediately try to blow your brains out.
>>334283065
It's like those youth action flick movies, like insurgent or maze runner, except even more dumb
Jesus Christ
>>334285904
But it's the literal beginning of the game at the tutorial? This "build" is the default, is that what you're getting at?
>>334284000
Because developers are prioritizing a large open world that is nine out of ten times empty and shallow over a small or linear game that has things to actually explore and do.
They can make a big empty map and slap "open world" on the cover and people will lick their booty hole like they did with fallout 4, even though the map is empty and boring compared to previous games.
People complain about the open world yet they'll probably have that silhouette guide tell you where to go throughout the whole fucking game so you don't get lost anyway.
>>334285989
Who knows? All I know is that PCgamer said that they've introduced an experience system with unlockable moves: "What’s different is that some of the abilities you started with in the first game, like twisting 180 degrees instantly, or lifting Faith’s legs mid-jump to get over an object faster, or the wonderfully satisfying last-second saving roll during a big fall are all unlocked as upgrades." -http://www.pcgamer.com/mirrors-edge-catalyst-hands-on-faithful-yet-improved/
So maybe they're trying to show the game we remember, or maybe the roll unlocks really fucking early so they're just showing it in the gameplay now? it's retarded to lock it, I'm not defending that, I'm just telling you what I've read.
Anita played a role... of course is fucked.

Amazing. What this has to do with this game though?
So far it's hard to tell how open or large it will be.
>>334283065
Running and platforming looks the same as ME1, as long as the level design is good I think the game will be fine. I'm probably going to skip all the cutscenes anyways.
And ME1 is one of those games that you can't really judge by watching gameplay videos, you have to play it to really enjoy it.

Because the majority of the times this has happened in the past it has been bad, people are predicting it to also be bad this time.

No it's not. Hub-system on some levels =/= open world
>>334286531
>Running and platforming looks the same as ME1
literally the first jump faith takes is a cartoonishly large leap that not even a 8 foot black man could pull off. The equivalent would be a five seven dude taking off from an NBA court and landing feet first on the rim standing upright. Jordan couldn't pull that shit off.
I don't know how I feel about a level/progression system. Given that it's canonically a prequel, I'm fine with the idea that Faith is learning and progressing to advance moves,but it puts a hamper on speedrunners.
That being said, this video in the OP was hard to watch because the player clearly doesn't know LB from LT and only managed to do the soft landing maybe two times out of the dozen.

It looks okay, I assume you can turn off the red ghost because that'd get annoying. Why does the player suck so much? I didn't see a single roll in that gameplay.
>>334287272
probably something like das3 or doom where the levels are non linear but the progression of the campaign is.
>>334287272
In a game like this? I'll tell you what I want. I want a large and dense hub world with a decent number of also large, and also dense SEMI-LINEAR (meaning there's a start point, and maybe multiple end points with varied branching or crossing paths throughout) levels within that hub. The hub can have collectibles (but not so many that they are just padding out hours of play time) and it should have secrets, and it should have people to talk to, and story to follow. The levels should have cutscene at the beginning, and at the fucking end, and NEVER IN THE MIDDLE. I fucking HATE having a level in a parkour game get interrupted by a fucking cutscene. This is pretty much all I want in a mirror's edge game. I'm okay with all the mechanics otherwise as they are. I don't even really care about no guns.

>It's another fight the oppressive totalitarian government story
>>334288341
Alright, but was the city itself what made the games bad? Or was it the mission design? The fact that all they ever give you to DO in the cities is open a little treasure box, kill the same 4 guards, follow 2 dudes, or assassinate a guy? At any rate, this is in first person, and the gameplay is very different. I guess what I'm arguing for is the POTENTIAL for an open world parkour game that has an amazing city with shit tons of fun and exploration and routes to find that are worth it. Fat chance we have of getting that, of course.

I like the futurist designs, but way too much cutscenes/pseudo cutscenes with stupid story. Too much linear stuff where you watch scripted shit happen. I recall the original's first level being much more hands on. Gameplay looks OK, but the level design seems to have suffered a bit from the open world treatment, the first's looked better, even during the intro mission. Health bars on the guards are disconcerting.Graphics don't look good, but the alasing makes it look like the game is not on the highest settings.Tacticool prison guard girl is mai waifu

The first game wasn't really that cyberpunk. It was 2-3 years ahead of its time. It was 2008 + NSA surveillance.
>>334288707
It had punk elements, but there was certainly nothing cyber about it. The most technologically advanced thing anyone ever does is when Miller hacks an elevator for you to use. Otherwise it's just Merc monitoring radio chatter.

You should go to your hugbox.
>>334288910
You got me. At least I can pray for BIG levels with actual varied routes.

So just like ME then ?

>i never played mirrors edge
honestly though, have you?
>>334289616
Mmm... No... you have to at least jump if you are in front of a wall, this is totally context sensitive, like the lastest ass creeds or the lastest splinter cell, or the LASTEST WHATEVER.
>>334287616
>instead of trusting the player and letting him develop his own free running techniques / skills so they can make the skill ceiling higher they add a leveling system
Open world claims another victim!

>Rpg elemenst in a non RPG game claims another victim
Fixed that for you.
THEY FUCKED IT UP
MY FUCKING LEVELS WERE ACTUALLY HAND CRAFTED IN THE PREVIOUS ONE. NOT FUCKING COPY PASTED. THEY TOOK SKILL TO CLEAR IN A GOOD TIME. THIS FUCKING SHIT IS JUST BLAND AND JADED. FUCKING EA,DONT DARE TO DEFEND THIS YOU FUCKING KEKS. X FOR PARKOUR? WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS YOU CASUAL SCUM. YOU RUINED THE ONLY GOOD PARKOUR GAME FRANCHISE
Looks fine to me, except for how ugly faith looks.
>>334289884
Just like the first game.

>lol you were expecting a sequel to a game that came out in 2009 to look better? are you serious? i cant even.. what's your point?
>>334283065
This nigga doesn't know how to do a soft landing at all.
Gameplay looks pretty good, but I am a little unsure on the new fighting system.
>>334289469
The thing YOU are fucking missing is

The rest is your biased as fuck assumptions.

Mmm... Yeah... Beta looks exactly like the first game.
>>334290221
shut up shill.
>i-i-iits not even out yet....
>y-tyt.y you dont know how big it is.
It can be prodcecual generated as space engine and simulate the ENTIRE VIRGO SUPERCLUSTER and still is an empty no game.
Size wont prove that the game is good if the FUCKING GAMEPLAY mechanichs are fucked up so hard.
>>334290227
No excuses here m8, 7 year difference and they couldnt manage to make it look better. sad
>>334283065
Do I need to constantly be reminded of what button to press and where? Can I turn that shit off?
I should go back to the first one, it was great.

Whoa, how about instead of hysterical ramblings you do somthing to your half arsed assumptions that they become convincing arguments, lad?
>>334290549
AT least there is no eyeburning Bloom this time :^)

Another full bloom lens flare chromatic aberration game.

We knew it was fucked the moment we found out Anita was brought in to discuss the design.

Not sure what are you trying to say m8.
I'm going to buy it on release day. That being said, I really really hope you can turn off the runner vision and objective markers and shit like you could in the first one.
>>334283347
Open world could be the death of it, but keeping the fantastic art direction of the first game is a necessity.
>>334290990
>im a retard who thinks graphics havent evolved in 7 years and games like star wars battlefront on PC look just like battlefield bad company 2
>>334284382
Faith was never supposed to be Japanese you mouthbreather.
didn't read anything in this thread, but it's honestly impossible for catalyst to be worse than the original. I absolutely love mirror's edge but there are so many things wrong with it and catalyst is fixing them all more or less.
>>334291013
What was her involvement exactly?
>>334291015
Do you not know that EA and DICE have had a massive staff overhaul?
>>334283065
why does she jump so high at times? like when when she starts free running and has to jump up the wall from the barrier she does a fucking hulk jump and just lands on the roof as opposed to a normal jump and raising herself onto the roof.
>mirrors edge was good but flawed
>so we'll fix it by removing the good
t. Electronic Arts
>>334291015
>implying EA doesnt shill their games on /v/
remember when INQUISITION and witcher got released?
>>334291128
>Actually implying graphics haven't stagnated these last 7 years
lol no.
>>334287010
I want to be all /v/ and say that it looks terrible, but honestly it doesn't look bad to me aside from it being casualized to an extent. I do not need to be told where to go constantly.
That said, it's just a gameplay demo. There's still room for them to ruin the actual game.
>>334290680
yea, i wont buy anything fom EA, as allways.
What are you going to do to avoid me torrenting this?
Denuvo?
KEKthis game would need like 10 years to be fixed if there is a comunity alive
>>334291175
They asked her how to make Faith less problematic and more empowering.
They also asked her why she thought female players struggled to get into the game and she said the controls were too complicated and the level design wasn't sttaight forward enough for entry level gamers.
>>334291237
The open world game direction does look terrible though, not to mention the shit like "leveling up" your movement potential.
I am not even someone who's trying to find things to hate, those are legitimately bad looking.
>>334291209
I'm not implying that at all. It's just dumb to hate on EA now when the first game loved by many was also done under EAs wing.
>>334291013
I thought she only did a talk for the employees, but had no actual input on any game design. I'm pretty sure EA made a statement about that after the petition came out, but it could have been lies
>>334291229
>CALL OF DUTY MODERN WARFARE LOOKS JUST LIKE BATTLEFRONT I SWEAR GUYS
>>334291332
>huge red glowing direction markers aren't simple enough
They're gonna have an auto-parkour button, aren't they?
>>334291274
Lol, what? Do whatever the fuck you want, loony.
>>334291470
we also loved ubisoft games a few years ago

Keep up the damage control friend. Maybe someone will actually believe you.
>>334291332
>They also asked her why she thought female players struggled to get into the game and she said the controls were too complicated and the level design wasn't sttaight forward enough for entry level gamers.
This shit still annoys me, because it's not like ME was that difficult to control anyway. Played like any other parkour platformer basically, but in the first person. And the level design was always open for alternate routes to be found.
>>334291371
Oh no, I'm starting to agree. Open world may not necessarily be bad by itself, but forced RPG elements can go fuck themselves. Not every game needs that shit.
>>334291641
>we
Talking to yourself maybe.
>>334288440
>blond white woman>she betrays you
>Noah, white
Nigga, did you even play the first game?
>>334291552
Of course not anon, she didn't just make a talk, EA asked her to lead the design of the game to ruin it just because /v/ loved the first game.
Just watched it and what is the complaint about faiths new design again? She looks qt as fuck.
>>334285265
Anita Sarkeesian literally worked with them on this game.
>>334291332
And then went out and made Faith even less azn.
And I'm not seeing any simplified controls in the beta vids but with some new moves here and there. Looks exactly like the first game.
>>334291778
It's an improvement over the first game imo. I liked the outfit she wore in the beginning.
>>334291827
No she didn't. She held a lecture(bad enough I agree) but that's it.
Prove otherwise.
>>334291202
In the first game you get more air by jumping off of 'steps' made by something at knee height like a crate or bench, next to something a bit taller like a railing or a bigger crate.
Or it just happens with anything at knee height. Either way, you jump really high off of certain things.
>>334291650
OH SHIT I'VE TOTALLY FORGOT ABOUT THAT FUUUUUCK
DAY ONE PIRATE THEN
>>334291714
What damage control? I'm saying the 2016 reboot looks like the 2009 original.
You're damage controlling by saying graphics haven't gotten better from that time on, dumb shill.
>>334287519
Doom's level design is terrible.
>>334291976
i remember that but i don't remember it making you go so high, maybe i'm just not remembering right. either way it's some bob kelso shit.
>>334288341
assassins creed 2 is one of the best games ever made(at least top 50) bro. It went to shit after it sadly

Marketer tier answers, i may be projecting but it wouldn't surprise considering EA reputation
Why the fuck is there constantly a red ghost running in front of you? Why can't games just leave players alone nowadays?
>>334292351
You canot imagine how stupid casuals are. They never pay attention to anything the game says or indicates so you have to constantly hold their hands.
I saw my sister and her friends playing many of the games i have and they had no clue on what to do or how to play because they always skip the tutorials and just start doing dumb shit.
Can you turn off red hints?
>>334291650
Yep.
Fuck ME2. I'm not putting that botnet on my computer and I'm not giving EA money.
I don't even need to pirate. I'm just going to ignore it.
Isn't this Anita's game?
Have fun, I suppose.
>>334292064
They haven't you fucking cunt. If "Graphics" got better exponentially then why do most games still look only on par with, or worse than crysis, a game that came out 9 years ago?
>>334283065
so its mirrors's creed now?
>>334291580
Sadly, we will have to do with an even more idiot proof runner's vision and "hold LB to parkour" due to limited controller buttons.
Maybe there will be a mod for PC though.
The opening sequence looks like shit.
But as long as there are nice places to run really fast, I'm sorta okay with it.
>>334292270
I'm not being paid, but good eye, literally all me. I came into the thread feeling contrarian, arguing for some golden ideal of a game that we all know we will never get but that in some perfect alternate dimension is actually what ME2 comes out to be. I stand by shitting on people who's first comment is to complain about feminism though, and I refuse to write off the potential for open worlds in free-running games entirely just because teams of hacks keep doing shitty jobs at it.
>>334283065
i dislike the propensity for liberals to make fascist governments out to be cartoonishly evil
fascism is about efficiency over all else not evil and dickishness above everything else
Can you turn the red shit off?
>>334292631
>muh crysis
it looks like shit now and wasnt even able to run on pcs in 2007. stop memeing.
Also, Mirrors Edge is Mirrors Edge, not Crysis.
>>334293457
If you select Male at the start it automatically removes the red and gives you less health.
