World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Hardsuit Labs

The character models look so artificial. I don't think uncanny valley is the type of horror the developers have in mind for this game.

So many Edgy boys in this topic.. complaining about graphics or animations.. is this Reddit?

Clan, my bad. Too ticked off at this trailer to even think straight at this point. Have they even been doing anything since that E3 presentation and indefinite delay. It looks about as bad

 

[Maculo]

Not a fan of that trailer, because it seemed like a missed opportunity. I thought they had Rick Schafer back? Why not showcase his work again?

I found one of the trailers for the first game. Interesting what they did or did not emphasize.

It looks way more polished, like that street scene in 0:53 looks really good in my opinion. If E3 was closed alpha this would be closed beta I would say. Not the facial animations though. Like that woman in 1:01 looks so lifeless.

And it actually has attractive females in it, which is rare now days for a western game.

Exactly. Just compare this to The Outer World and tell me that the female look wasn't an agenda there! Also how about all the wokeness and trigger warning fears now?

 

[Jenkem]

the jank in the trailer is a signal towards the quality of the game. the effort is going into the quality of the writing and quest designs, not the animation. if all you care about are graphics and polish, the cyberpoz thread is that way--->

Animations and facials expression do satisfy me. This is wholesome improvement overall. Now they need to nail the gameplay and writing to make Vamily proud.

 

[Infinitron]

This reminds me a bit of how people reacted to the funny Wasteland E3 trailer last year.

I like the website's new theme.

These screenshots are new, I think?

Strong Dishonored stealth vibes in that third one.

There's also a new Community section with links to various social media, YouTubers and related stuff. Surprisingly no new unlockable rewards in the Account page, though.

They need to make Ocean House Hotel really creepy with unexpected and hard encounters.

Looking forward beating the shit out of some poor guy in an alley with a tire iron

I don't know man, gotta be enthusiastic about something at the very least

Where do we see facial animations in this? The parts that show characters' faces look like clips from cutscenes or just cinematic footage shot for the sole purpose of this trailer. The only dialogue we have is from the last gameplay reveal, where it looked like Skyrim tier trash.

Where is this mythical creature of which you're talking about?

That's Mitsoda as he'd like to see himself.

I liked the trailer.
Hm, makes me wonder: the guy in the beginning, dancing between the puppets, literally pulling their strings, is that a message? Maybe each puppet in that scene represents a main character in the game, leaders perhaps, and the fact they're shown as puppets with strings attached and the guy playing with a string. Maybe they're trying to tell us that he's manipulating all of them.

I think they're not puppets but people he killed. He's psycho what he's done to them.

Game looks very polished compared to last year. Still no release date though.

If that's polished then I don't want to see what it looked like then. That new video is a time capsule of 2010.

 

[GloomFrost]

New trailer got more dancing then DE. Is that some kind of World of Darkness lore thing or what??

 

[Zyondyne]

I don't know if anyone cares, but I did a rework of the trailer using what I consider a more fitting song. The current one is just way too Fallout-ish and out of place for me.
Started by simply adding the song to the background and then I did some additional montage/adding sound effects. Then I changed the order of some scenes. I spent more time than I'd ever admit on it to synchronize some musical sequences and lyrics with what happens on screen. Then I added some sound effects and other little touches. This is the final result.

It's a Queen song that, in my humble opinion, really fits that "Malkavian theatrical madness" vibe of this trailer better than the original musical choice.

Americans, please don't try to speak kraut, you always fuck it up

This is Dark Souls The Outer Worlds of the vampire genre.

 

[Wunderbar]

Why would they focus their trailer on flashy animations if their animations aren't that good?
If it's an RPG and not some naughty dog interactive movie bullshit, then just make a video showcasing RPG stuff, ffs.
