Here is the second video from the DONTNod Presents Vampyr series. Entitled Architects of the Obscure, the video reveals new gameplay sequences and deals with the visuals and music composed by Olivier Derivière that brought 1918 London to life.
I loved Olivier Derivière's scores for Alone in the Dark 2008 (the only redeeming aspect of that game) and Remember Me, good to have him onboard, but am still cautious about hyping this game too much. Heavens know we need more good vampire games.

We need more vampire games , period. Vampire the masquerade games need to come back, they'd sell well nowadays when Rpgs are far more popular. i think.
I know i don't want an MMO...
I'm still cautious about Vampyr because too much story could hide some barebones gameplay.
I'll listen to some of Derivière's work. Music is such an important part of immersion in games(movies and tv shows are the same).

This could be another Remember Me situation but i hope not. I want the studio to succeed with something more ambitious, also.because the premise for this game is awesome. Personally im expecting a rough around the edges kind of game ( subpar facial expressions, animations etc) but hopefully the rest is great. Combat wise im not expecting much either but as long as its decent and the narrative is good im fine

it's the ambition that's kicking this game in the nuts imo. they're suffering Spiders/Piranha Bytes syndrome, where they clearly have a specific size of team with a certain level of talent and a specific budget and yet they seem to be aiming to compete with the AAA market and failing. know your limits and work to your strengths. don't just shoot for the stars and hope for the best, the results usually end up being a janky, boring, generic mess (see elex/bound by flame/technomancer/remember me)

@Loakum: since when being in a team is an excuse to smoke weed and go all frathouse asses? what happened to being decent human beings and stfu, work and be professionals. (12 Hours ago)

@KORNdog: What makes it comical is GoT two Writer/Producers chickened out their scheduled appearance at this year's San Diego Comic Con. Dang shame. (13 Hours ago)

@nostradamus: and to make matters worse we got lame SJW activist gaming publications like Kotaku and Polygon that encourage the pusification of the industry. (13 Hours ago)

@nostradamus: In fairness to game devs these days, it has to be tricky putting out a game that won't offend today's "outrage snowflake culture." (13 Hours ago)
