To be honest, I thought Deus Ex was a pretty shit game. Not trolling.

My reasoning is that Hong Kong really fucking sucked shit, and the game made you side with your faggot brother. You HAD to betray the NSF (or whatever the fuck it was called -- don't remember) while the entire game it almost seemed as though the game was building up for you to be able to make this massive choice whether or not to leave the NSF. I felt ripped off.

So wait, they're re-releasing FO3?

The video looks cool. If they get the RPG mechanics better than Fallout3 (ie decent story and background world), and the shooter mechanics like HL2, Quake etc, along with a survivalist vibe (get shot in the leg and have it effect gameplay until healed), it could be cool.

The graphics look much better than F3, like a 3D comic.

But probably, if there is dialogue it'll be one way ala HL2, or even worse, faux two way, ala Mass Effect, and the RPG mechanics will entail upgrading your gun.

EDIT: Beth should show their animators that video then sack the lot of them.

Well, looks like the time has come for you to kill yourself. So long.

On topic, this game looks really fun. Pretty much an FPS Diablo, looking forward to co-op play.

Meh. The combat in this game looks much closer to Mass Effect than Diablo, methinks

More like you being whiny bitch trying to score some cool points on the Codex. I hate this new trend.

The trailer looks ok. The art direction is very nice. Dunno about the actual gameplay mechanics, but it might become a nice distraction once it's released, as long as you don't except anything along the lines of DX or Bloodlines.

God, such shit advertising nowadays.
That was actually a really good trailer. Videogame ads "nowadays" are much better than they were in the past.

I'm not interested in this game, but I do like the style, and it could be a good game for those that were disappointed with Hellgate.

That was a terrible trailer. It was meant to show gameplay but i got bored before i saw any.

The guy was here for 2 and a half years and he still thinks that whining is something new on the Codex.

Nothing wrong with a shooter that has some RPG elements.
And that trailer obviously doesn't take itself too serious...

I bet it is also good for what it is

I'm sorry I don't like your shitty game that will suck :(

I'll try harder next time. Guaranteed this game will absolutely suck, but I can tell you one thing: It will have 87 BAZILLION GUNS!

I might have not stated that clearly enough. I'm not saying that whining on the Codex is a new trend. I'm just tired of newags coming in and whining just for the sake of it. IT IZ TEH KODEX, EVERYTHING IZ SHITE LOL! AM I COOL NOW MOM?

Wow, you just crushed me with force of your arguments. Why will it suck? Because its the Codex! Yay, we're having a discussion!

Games are serious business.

Wow. These trailer is making it seem like they're the first studio to ever create an FPS with slight RPG mechanics.
Have they never heard of Deus Ex, System Shock, or VtM:B?
They did it if they said they did it are you calling them liars? That's libel and they should sue.

In other news, I found the trailers to this game to be incredifuckably mediocre and uninteresting. Really, just wtf is there to this piece of shit? Before I've seen trailers, when I've only read about it, it sounded remotely interesting and a few screenshots were ok as well, but now seeing the trailers, the art direction, cell shading, etc. it all looks so dull. It looks like oblivion. Why should anyone want that?

I like how World of Warcraft shoulderpads have morphed the hegemonic video game aesthetic into wasp waisted guys with five hundred pounds of trapezius muscles.

87 bazillion guns and RPS stupidity aside, Borderlands sounds like it'll be fun, and the new aesthetic is nice enough
