I'm still not convinced on this game.

Clearly this game needs to be seen in motion to be appreciated.

I love what I'm seeing either way :D

QUOTE:

Unfortunately, since this move required a lot of game design and development time to get it just right, the presentation and polish of the slide was not clearly visible during our last gameplay demo. A very noticeable aspect of this was in the lack of transitions, which people kindly noted. Players could run down into the screen (6 o’clock) and then slide straight up (12 o’clock) without transitions, making Baldur pop to the new direction immediately.



Now with some updated animations, the slide finally looks like a distinct slide move. We have also added some cool effects, like motion blurs and trails for fast slides and long distances. And, more importantly, we have added very clear transitions for a multitude of angles. Transitions have also been added to every other attack style in the game, making the overall combat look much smoother and more polished.

While adding these transitions was needed for polish and severely helped the animation quality, they required quite a bit of tuning (aside from the animation work), as the timing from control press to attack (hit timing) had been altered. While a time consuming process, we had to manually go in and tune each of these transitions to make sure they retained the fun we originally enjoyed. It was important to us that we maintained the fun, and did not lose the gameplay and responsive controls at the cost of cleaner animations. Retaining the game’s timing and distancing was always first and foremost when it came to combat controls.

The slides in “Too Human” now feel and look great, and they are just one aspect of the “Too Human” melee combat system. We’ve only just begun to discuss some of the cool things you can do with all of the various melee combat techniques in “Too Human.”
