Do guys really like those HUGE thingies? I mean, I can admire a good pair as much as any but isn't it kind of gross when it does reach that point? :?

Male artists usually get carried away when it comes to breast size. It's nothing new, really :

There was actually a similar co-op action game coming, the one with the vampires from Deck13, but it seemed to have turned into vaporware at this point.

Back to dungeons filled with traps, I take it !

From what I can see, the stealth mechanics don't look too bad, considering they're not the focus of the game.

Obvious and pointless betrayals are of course common in video games, but that dude with the bucket on his head reached impressive heights of obviousness and pointlessness.

It's nice when your henchman occasionally grabs a foe so you can finish them off. Better AI than 90% of AAA games (your henchman in Hunted Demon's Forge actually does the same, too).

And they don't die in 10 seconds when left alone so you don't have to babysit them.

They're actually too good at staying alive actually, much better than Dynasty Warriors.
Like I said before, if Binary Domain / Mass Effect had actually implemented these 'squad swaps' gameplay would've been more interesting, especially with how differently Krogan handle online.

Thingies get all the attention. What about stuffies? :(

The Grail is pretty much the ultimate thingy, so I suspect stuffies simply won't get their fair share of attention in this game.

It is nice to see a game where you don't have to continuously babysit your squad. I think this is the first game since Republic Commando in which I didn't need to worry about what my squad was up to.

Even when you're on a super-important and urgent mission, I guess there's no escaping merchants who want you to bring them back their stolen goods.

That's completely different. There's always time to be found for a young and sexy woman to take a bath. If Celian wasn't such a eunuch, he'd realize it's just as valuable a reward for this quest as actually having something to drink.

Combat does seem to be annoyingly repetitive. Most enemies have to be humans since the game is not fantasy, but surely, more diversity would have been possible.

On the plus side, for once, you can use traps to annoy your foes.

Seriously, in that last mission I was very angry cause if you trigger an alert and the timer runs out before you deal with the guards, it's automatic game over.
Thankfully the next mission is even more annoying. Cannot wait to get this game over with. Jesus fuck.

I have to admit, this looked boring as fuck.

The increasingly "subtle" hints that Celian actually is the first templar are pretty terrible, but the fact that our heroes simply refuse to get it makes the whole thing even worse.
