If this game has fabulous cutscenes then I will bother playing it. Berserk has a fantastic story and the new anime did it no justice at all.
the salt in the would is that a videogame for a generic hack b' slash has Way better animation than a new anime show after waiting all this time. Anime is trash.

Seems you misunderstand the concept of Anime isn't to always follow the cookie cutter animation art style formula.
The Anime series takes a risk with it's CGi use and it actually works very well.
As far as the game, it is funny how the first attempt way back on Dreamcast preceded the Dynasty Warriors genre but was still an early 3d polygon evolution of the old 2d side scrolling beat em ups and hack and slash em ups.

Same goes for the original 1995 anime, just horrible, and after watching a bit further than only ep1 I can safely say both are shit shows. As to the animation techniques: Imo traditional animation =/= better if it's as badly executed as in the original show (compare that to Space Adventure Cobra from 1982 for example). Only animations that did the manga justice were the 3 movies, rest is forgettable, which is sad. But the new low will be this game, which will not only feature bad animation but also bad graphics combined with abysmal Warriors buttonmashing gameplay... *sigh*

@MrWhite: I did notice a little banding in darkest spots but I really didn't have any issue with what I saw, granted I only watched a few parts. (1 Day ago)

Yea, scenes with poor visibility has been a persistent problem with the show. (1 Day ago)

others are suggesting more cynical reasons, like promising better quality on blu ray to drive sales up. (1 Day ago)
MrWhite
large chunks of detail were just blocky, and you couldn't see shit beyond the foreground layers. It's being blamed on streaming services, but I put it down to CGI masking by making it dark as possible (1 Day ago)

I downloaded a full, uncompressed 1080p source of it, and when I adjusted the brightness on both PC and TV, there were massive bitrate artifacting. (1 Day ago)
