There is one helmet I got that is full covered with gold and covers your entire head with small gaps on the sides, thats cool.

I was thinking the same thing.
If this is what we get at lvl7 I wonder what we can get and do on lvl30 and so on.

And yes I know all the secret gateways and item towers in Cyberspace before meeting up with the lovely Freya.

On my last play with Champion I got a lvl 9 one handed sword with blue plasma looking blade, first time I got it.

Aaaah yes, that gold helmet! I got that when I was the Berserker, looked very cool indeed. That blade sounds cool as well.

I'm going to have to buy this game. I have to see how the combat develops and what cool items you can get later on in the game.

The demo is great. For impatient people, the demo and the game will suck. Everything isn't going to click right away and you will be extremely frustrated with a lot of things, such as not being able to fully control the camera and having to attack with the right along stick. Once you've played the demo at least twice, you appreciate how good this game actually is. The combat is rubbish at first, but is fun and addictive when you get into the higher levels (e.g. level 6 or 7). You learn how to do finishing moves, juggle people in the air and chain moves together.

Sure this game is far from perfect, but I think there's a strong chance I will be buying this to fill the gap between now and October/November when all the big hitters come out. This game is no slouch if the demo is anything to go by, and I would even describe this game as a 'rough diamond'.

I mean, i've played the demo about 10 times now. In fact, guess what i'm playing right now? ;)

Thats the problem though, many gamers (especially younger gamers) if they can't pick a game up and it be accessible immediately then they don't want to know, and thats guna be this games biggest problem appealing to people.

It's no good if they demo becomes really good after 10 play throughs (whats that like 8 hours ?) if there is nothing to keep someones attention at the beginning.

Hopefully they aren't going to scrap this game engine for a sequel, I would rather see them fine tune it, I think if they did motion capture for the next one it would help massively as far as animation goes anyway.

Yes, I just hope that they aren't stubborn and actually learn from their mistakes in this game because this could potentially be a great set of games.

game isnt fun in 1st time only coz this game has innovative controls system and if u understand this control(I did it when played 2nd time) U will have lot of fun

and game must change from the begining to the end, so Too Human demo was show that - I love rpg system and tons of new armors and weapons and thing that i can do in gameplay with them.

remember assassins creed - gameplay and char ability there were identical from the begining to the end and bored me a lot

There sure is something wrong with the game if it becomes fun after many hours of frustration. I just don't see this game becoming fun. It has too many flaws in it. I will be interested about the next game if they would actually try to make it good.

There is quite much good stuff too but all the bad stuff is making this game really bad.

For me, innovation requires being both new and good. This right stick business doesn't really feel any better, or even on the same level as using face buttons for combat.

Just tried the demo and was very impressed. Graphics just work, in places they were quite impressive and slowdown only seemed to occur in cutscenes for me.

Controls are a little funny and combat is rather simplistic but then thats exactly what i was expecting from an action RPG, it seems to me that its no worse that diable 2 or the god of war series and if people find those acceptable I don't see how TH can be so susceptable.

Think it will be a purchase, only annoyance is that theres no 4 player, could have been an awesome multiplayer game, instead its just a reasonable 2 player game.

Hmm I wonder what the chance of patching 4 players in, I'm guessing the engine can't handle it though :(

Well there is always hope for TH2 :D

Here's some pictures from my latest demo run-through. You know how earlier I said I found a helmet that looked like the one Sath pointed out in the link? I found a better one. It's very similar, except it's in a bronze colour:



Here is my character with my rifle that looks strangely like a shotgun:



And here's my character again with a gigantic sword:

The game has a few technical problems, like laggy menu that its not fast enough and smooth.

The cutscenes, some of the animation and all looks bad but not as in bad as not watchable.

The controls of controlling Baldur in close combat can be annoying at time, but is manageable if you can deal with it.

The dialogue...Haze has much worst dialogue than this, so this compared to Haze, this is gold :P

This is just ONE level, they haven't been showing different levels that much, and they aren't going for that deep environment interactivity, but more at secret areas and hidden easter eggs and such, but yes there are room to room, to larger halls of big statues and all.
Remember that the demo was taking place in a abandon place, not much going on there now was it.

The combat with the sword is a bit non impactful, it doesn't feel like you are hitting them so they don't have enough animations on the enemy to know that the sword is making huge damage.

The good:

Leveling up, getting higher, getting more items to improve your skills, attacks, armor, customizing them...etc. everything that just makes your character a "God" is fun because there is always ways to go with your playing style and through that, the classes.

Different classes have big roles, even though they can look a bit like eahc other int erms of armor visuals, like everyone is gonna have futuristic armor that looks the same with different design and all, the gameplay is different.

The camera is good, if you played NG before, same situation here...thecamera reset is your friend, use it.

The long range is not aproblem, it shoots you aim, simple and good.

So far, we have only seen trolls and mini bosses like those tough goblins with shields.

I bet there will be bigger and harder bosses.

I love it when Valkyrie shows up and picks up the dead bodies of the wolf team and goes up with them and dissapears while you are fighting, very great tough SK added.

Same goes with the death scene, I died on purpose just to watch it.
Just when she arrives and that wonderful choir music plays like the intro to the game, very awesome.

Controls are good, it is a breather from all the tap tap tap tap games...yes I am talking about NG, God of War and DMC titles.
My fingers hurt as hell when I keep playing them for hours, while this all you need to do is play with the analogs and just relax and still have that NG/DMC type feeling to the gameplay.

So the controls are new and unique and the genre going with it as well as the setting, Too Human is a unique original game SK put together nicely.
I bet there will be sequals considering they like LOTR alot (like me) they tend to release TH 2 and 3 with different "themes" like "vengance" I believe is the next one they are going for (might be wrong).

And the concept of that you can carry your character to the sequal with everything attached from the previous title, it just awesome.

I believe this is a title that is a love or hate, there is no middle.
Some people will hate it, some won't.
I see ACE is already saying this game will be his GOTY if the story is good, so thats good for him.

I believe this game will get around 7-8 in terms of review score (like I give a damn anyways).

I will get this game, but...I don't know when I can start investing to going Gold for online co-op.

Lots of reading, sorry for that.

I see you were a Defender...but I don't like defender.
But, in that screenshot, Baldur is using dual swords, and Berserkers are the only class that can equip them so I don't think I will have any problem getting one with as Berserker.

But, I want to see what happens with Champion because I see the Champion class like Aragorn from LOTR which is "ranger" class.
Long range and melee is balanced, and that is my type, so I hope I can find something within Champion.

I have to play MUCH better to gain that helmet.
Mind telling me which part of the game you got it and at what level?

Haha, that was my intention! He's even got a huge hammer ...

HAMMER TIME! Duh duh duh duh, duh duh, duh duh, can't touch this.

I think the helmet kind of makes him look like a second hand Iron man. ;)

I don't really like the Defender either to be honest, it's just that I accidentally selected him and couldn't be bothered to start it all up again. He's got a good skill tree and his freezing powers are amazing. However his melee combat is a bit slow so I don't really enjoy playing with him as much. If I get the full game - and it definitely looks like I might - I will probably play as the Berserker because I like the melee combat with him.

I got the helmet on that three doors bit. You probably know where that is, but it's the bit where you see the second well. It was the first door (one on the left) that I got the helmet from. I defeated the boss-type goblin and got the helmet from the activation point in that dungeon. I got it at level 6 (I think).

I haven't played God of war but what I have seen it has much better looking combat. Also I think Diablo 2 is still the best hack'n slash game. Controlling is better than this game and the camera too. In Diablo you always see what you need but this game just doesn't have good camera.

Am I like the only one who notices the bad performance in this game? Hmm I have always been good to notice screen tearing and fps stuff. I also notice small errors in encoded videos too. My friend always says it's good enough already but I need to get it better heh. That's why I probably did stay at this site. Videos looks great always when it's possible :)

For me the game has all the basic stuff done wrongly. There is much better alternatives for this game. Still I can understand if you like this game more so have fun playing it!

Blmbox, yeha I know which part, I have to play well then to get it. I love surprises from those loot towers you activate to get tons of random loot, very cool.

I can notice framrates now and then so I see it as a gift because the less I see these type of stuff it is easier for me to have better experience.
But for Too Human I haven't seen any yet.

Like i said before, Too Human isn't for everyone, and its all about personal opinions, some hate it some don't, no complications.

But it's always good to hear from people enjoying a game because thats the point of gaming, having fun.
