It doesn't look great. But then again lot of modern 3d games look like crap to me.

It's Fallout with swords (and guns).

this would be super incline, and is therefore not true

It's Fallout 3 with swords.

 

[Lyre Mors]

Hub-based interconnected zones, not open-world. Wow, Obsidian.

Every comments on the chat mentions that it's Lord of the Ring: Gollum mixed with The Elder Scrolls.
Not even normies like it.

 

[Infinitron]

Hub-based interconnect zones, not open-world. Wow, Obsidian.

She said "interconnected open zones". The word "hub" was not mentioned.

 

[Mebrilia the Viera Queen]

Lot of talking but not showing. This never bode well.

 

[Lyre Mors]

She said "interconnected open zones". The word "hub" was not mentioned.

True, though I felt the implication was there. I don't care personally. I just thought they were going to try to actually do an open-world this time.

 

[Mebrilia the Viera Queen]

So is basically the outer worlds with spells and swords. Total skip!

 

[Roguey]

I mean there's not much difference between them. Instead of going back to a ship like in TOW you just go directly to a map screen.

They tried and it didn't work, this was revealed quite a while ago.

As the dev mentioned earlier in the thread, they're still in pre-alpha. The trailer is all they have to show.

Fair. Still what they did show was actually pretty bad.

Couldn't it also be open world in the sense that some people like to say dark souls is open world? Because if the hubs are interconnected, then that's not the same as Inquisition and TOW at all.

 

[Infinitron]

I'm not sure what Jinn really meant by the term, but to me "hub-based zone" sounds like every map load revolves around a single hub town. But even The Outer Worlds had Monarch as a large open zone with several towns.

 

[Lyre Mors]

I mainly meant that there would likely be a central area - whether a single map or several - that you are branching out from. It probably wasn't the best way to describe what I was thinking, but it was the first thing that popped into my head.

but for more important stuff oh look there's kicking d1p achieved. ekera, that was easy.

thats just stage one. by stage four they'll be selling new vegas on Steam as though its 'from the creators of Grounded 2'

That seems very unlikely. Dark Souls's gameplay is about traversing that space. Avowed's not a dungeon crawler, you'll be able to fast travel to different areas and such. Greedfall as made by Americans.

 

[Roguey]

Euros win again.

 

[TT1]

Extended showcase = Extended disappointment

Oh, Obsidian, what have you done?

 

[Delterius]

whats wrong with the last of us bear
