TheMightyEthan Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Figured I'd start a topic for this game. It looks like it could be pretty cool. Some superficial similarity to Watch Dogs, but considering they first announced this last year I doubt there's any real reason for that, just coincidence. I'm hoping the memory alteration sequences are nonlinear, so you can have multiple solutions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 (edited) Oh man, sure hope that the end of the game doesn't end with the reveal that it's September 11 and the main character is in the World Trade Centre after getting his life all figured out.

CorgiShinobi Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 The only problem I can see when watching the gameplay is that it looked like you only had one chance to alter the guy's memory. Okay, so you knock down the bottle that he normally threw, but when it plays out you fail. You try "again" but this time the bottle is still down and then you get to alter another object. I wonder if there was a solution outside of those two items that would have done the job, like already breaking the mirror. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faiblesse Des Sens Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 The gameplay? There wasn't any gameplay. It was footage representative of gameplay. Which makes me very skeptical considering how old this project is now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 So technical: "representative footage." It's still a video that's suppose to be showing viewers the idea of "altering memories" and how you can accomplish your goal of locating a target through use of the terrain and enemies. While it's obviously all staged (knowing those guards would arrive) it's still displaying the mechanics of Remember Me just like the video for Watch Dogs.

MasterDex Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 The gameplay? There wasn't any gameplay. It was footage representative of gameplay. Which makes me very skeptical considering how old this project is now. I'm pretty sure that was gameplay. The line about it being footage representing gameplay is just a disclaimer. It looks like it could be interesting but I think if games are going to offer choice, they really need to offer it properly. In this, it seems like you'll be shoehorned into doing what you're told, the only difference being how you do what you're told. I'd find it far more appealing if you could decide not to kill that guy and instead remix his memories so he doesn't do what your handler doesn't want him to do. The protagonist doesn't seem happy that she has to kill this guy, by her own hands or through a memory remix, so it doesn't make sense that she'd follow that course of action when the powers of a memory remix could, I assume, allow her to avoid it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorgiShinobi Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I think she was more concerned about the possibility of having to kill someone with her own hands, but then the dude tells her to make the target kill himself. People have been thinking she's like an assassin, but she comes off more as a spy/agent who doesn't get involved and gets out. Or it could be like Deus Ex where we do have a choice, but our character isn't the type who has actually had to kill someone before. Considering that her memories will soon be "gone," we could be able to mold her into what we want her to become. All speculation mind you, but it would be cool considering she becomes a blank slate.

Thursday Next Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I hope they avoid the mistakes made in Assassin's Creed. The missions could be pretty repetitive if it is a case of getting to the target and "remixing" them over and over. Also agree with Ethan definitely want multiple solutions to the remixes. I quite liked the way this one built up. But it would be good if you could perform multiple actions at once. For example, knocking over the bottle and removing the safety. Without having to replay each time. Perhaps that will be an ability you unlock later in the game? Also agree with Masterdex. It seemed a little off. "You want me to kill a guy! No way, that's against my morals." "Oh no no no. We just want you to trick him into killing himself." "Okey dokey!" I get from a narrative point of view that key people need to die. Perhaps there will be side missions where you can get people to rethink their lives rather than killing them? Not sure how big the game is meant to be. 8 hours action adventure game or 30 hour action RPG game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted August 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 According to an interview on Game Informer's site (ewww, I know...) the player will have control of fast-forwarding and rewinding in the game, so you won't have to watch the same scene play out over and over again only making one change each time. If you fail you can just rewind to the point you need to change and try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyEthan Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 New video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbOhc2Czcc4 I wish marketing departments would actually put the interesting parts of games in their trailers, rather than make everything look like a generic beat-em-up.

toxicitizen Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 Yeah, the combat bits really took away from what otherwise gave me a strong Mirror's Edge kinda vibe. As in, it looks fucking different, for once. Looking forward to this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldorf and Statler Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 looks like too good of a game. Some bad news about it must be inserted so I can feel comfortable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 I'm just glad it wasn't shooting. If I find out there is a load of shooting to be done in the game my interest will plummet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it since there's a lot of emphasis on fighting. It wasn't posted here, but months ago there was this video about the "Combo Lab."

Hot Heart Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Heh, that fighting thing looks interesting. The 'pressen' thing actually reminds me a little of Jade Empire ('regen' moves that deal low damage, for example). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TCP Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 Can't believe this fucking game is coming out next week, it had some decent hype at E3 but Capcom has done an awful job at keeping that momentum going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFlyingGerbil Posted May 29, 2013 Report Share Posted May 29, 2013 yeah it's a bit of a mess. I keep thinking it's going to be a launch title for the next gen, I don't even associate it with the current gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
