Those are some big boots to fill..
I think Too Human could be a totally unique experience with the different aspects of the game they appear to have. I really like the Cyberspace idea being able to explore a world where things just look totally natural. The customization should also go pretty deep. You'll be able to change or upgrade baldur's legs for better jumping ability among other things. I really like the camera showing things from the perspective of an enemy watching you as you're fighting off enemies. The camera if it works as advertised should pretty much set Too Human apart from anything else out there including God of War because that fancy camera work only takes place for god of war in specific QTE like moments, but for Too Human its like all the time during gameplay the camera is doing all this fancy stuff. (Atleast thats how it was advertised) Then there are the hunting/gathering aspects like diablo that were mentioned it all sounds pretty interesting. Who knows in all the different game environments there might be explorable areas where people that bother will find new cool areas others may have missed.
An average developer would screw up the basic aspects of the combat even if they wont be too deep. So SK as a pretty strong dev should nail combat by all means necessary and if the UE3 engine doesn't work well with good animations they should make sure it does. I hope it plays really well.

Geomeric's tech demo..the one that we've seen..is really impressive. I would love to see that kind of tech put to good use. I just wonder how much of a load it can handle. The number of light sources, size of the world, etc.

You know when SK showed a presentation of Baldur and different weapons with black background...well Baldur had a big machine gun in his hand.

Also what the hell... not ONE of those websites bothered to get a look at this presentation and report about it? Bet if it was a ps3 global illumination demo they'd want to report about it. Honestly isn't real-time GI suppose to be a big deal?

I might mess with the staff a bit if it looks cool while i'm using it.
There might even be a god of war like weapon.

I would go with the staff as well, just to test it out, especially when I saw the staff combat in the 300 clip =D.
But other than that, sword and guns.

yeah, I saw it at too human too just now, thanks though.
Also Denis just posted this over at GAF
To me the passing around these pictures/comments is liking smashing the conch which alluding to many of the secondary themes in Lord of the Flies.
In time these comments will be bearers of fruit. Unfortunately for many here, they are going to be very bitter.
Can't wait till the IGN thing, week after next. Hopefully it plays awesome--it already looks awesome.

He sounds pretty confident about the progress their making now. I have faith in him, but I would like to see that faith turned into reality come the big IGN preview. Can't wait!

Yet another typical gaf response to a developer
"so developers only want to post places where their asses will be kissed?"
Some of those kids really get off on running their mouth to developers it makes them feel as if they've scored some huge victory in front of their other immature peers.

LOL comment to denis this has got to be the most pitiful comment I've ever seen.
Throwing in some pseudo-intellectual "analysis" comparing GAF to children in The Lord of the Flies is not only insulting, it isn't even particularly original. Perhaps that's the problem--you need a little more time trying to be like Miyamoto and Jaffe, and a little less time trying to be like Foucault and Lawrence.
Thanks for alienating someone who was looking forward to your game, Denis. Good job."
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=3158018...
And Dennis, don't let the haters get you down. With some of them, you just can't win. And I really mean that. I mean, I still get people telling me I'm overrated like it's some kind of insult when I've been ****ing telling THEM that I'm overrated for over a year. I mean, do you haters think I actually think I am as talented as Kojima and/or Miyamoto? Do you guys think we don't KNOW that GOD OF WAR is not meant to stand toe to toe (combat mechanics wise) with DMC and NG? Hell, tell me something I don't know...like why your mom's twat was so ****ing loose last night. That's info I'm looking for, you know?
But yeah, It's hard to get some of the haters to see that I don't really care. What am I going to do, stop making games because some people don't like me or my work? It would seem that is the goal for them as they put so much time into typing up the L'll insults n stuff....
...but I dig GAF...it's a fun place. And alot of the guys/gals here are really nice and supportive (even if they don't dig my work). So to those guys, I say thanks!
But to all of you douchbag name callers, bring it on baby

Well I originally found Jaffe very arrogant, but I guess I've learned to understand him.
Plus I respect the way he backed up Denis in that thread.
Anyway looking at new EGM "Mushroom Kingdom Hearts"
Sora, Mickey, donalf, Goofy, Mario and numerous other Nintendo characters along with various other various square and disney characters? Wii exclusive that is going to be a monster killer app lol. Ratchet and clank looks pretty impressive :)

Motorstorm is actually pretty fun, I would probably have gave it a 9, as well. Reminds me a lot of Jet Moto for some reason.
