    That trailer is fuckin great. Not showing gameplay kind of sucks, but the trailer shows a pretty neat world.

    Wow. That stealth systems sounds awesome - potentially even better than Thief.

    Don't you dare fucking disappoint with this, Arkane. I want you to succeed and be like the next Looking Glass. DO THIS RIGHT, FFS

    All of these cool features won't mean much, if they don't exist in the context of large and well-designed non-linear (non-console/popamole) levels.

    Otherwise it's just a stylish Splinter Cell.

    If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.

    Especially if bethesda is involved.

    Doesn't look that stealthy at all.

    That's because stealthy trailers hardly have any mass appeal.

    Do stealthy games have mass appeal? (Honest question, no trollain)

    On a side note, I am really happy to hear from Arkane. Really excited about new title. Although, I would prefer that canceled sci-fi project over this steampunkness :C

    If they're done right, like Thief, then no.

    Even Dark Messiah, despite having Stealth elements, was basically an action game.

    That last trailer sucked, I'll quote one of the top yt comments as to why:


    The whole trailer did nothing for me, it didn't deliver. When I first heard that song I thought I'd get a bit of plot, a few glimpses at future encounters, when all along, they're just a few gameplay snippets.

    Serious lack of kicking in that trailer. Just looks like a bunch of canned assassination animations.

    OMG OMG OMG It's gunna be great! It looks a bit overpowered, though. I guess you can always play in hard difficulty.

    Please tell me there are no invisibility powers in the game. There's already time dilation. Also, with the powers to control animals it becomes Bloodlines-ish.
