Unfortunately this GIRLZ GIRLZ angle seems to have overshadowed the good stuff. It better end with the advertising.

I am aware of how that sounds.

This trailer should never have been released. It gives the public a very bad impression of the game, which may or may not be bad. Stalker's trailers - now THOSE are good.

From the differernt forums I frequent I've gotten a lot of different reactions to this latest trailer - in the non rpg-specific ones it's quite well recieved, and those are usually graphic-jocks like yourself Rex.

I can't deny the graphics were excellent, but it lacked presentation. It's like taking a bunch of short snippets from one of the LOTR movies in random order. Nobody intelligent is going to be impressed by it, no matter how good the graphics might look. Whereas, having a nice cinematic scene or two 'fading' into a loud sound after several seconds each, would be a much more presentable way to do it. e.g. the Doom 3 and Stalker trailers. Most of those good trailers end with some fast, pounding cinematic score. Requiem for a Dream or O Fortuna's a great track to do it with, even if the song might not be in the game or movie. That's how LOTR handled it.

Are we gonna judge the game on a shitty 30 secs trailer?
Wait for it to be released, bash it then..IF it sucks.

speculation feeds the imagination. :evil:
