New Teaser Trailer has arrived.

[Haze]

Definitely a teaser. IGN has uncovered something that is quite interesting:

You can pick out voices, saying "Would you like to see my painting?" "It is my fate to die here," "You won't make it out alive" and "Happiness... Yes, I had happiness." The tone is more befitting of a horror title, than a straight-up fantasy RPG it originally appeared to be.

But perhaps most interesting is the Capcom Online Games logo that appears at the beginning of the trailer. Translations of the Japanese site indicate that it's an online game of some sort. Rumours are now swirling that it could be MMORPG or something more akin to Dark Souls' approach to online, in which players interact but communication between them is deliberately limited.

Fingers crossed we hear more soon!

I've got to admit, I'm a little disappointed. I would really like another Dragon's Dogma from Capcom, not Monster Hunter. Still, maybe this will be both, or well balanced enough for a single player. I'm still hoping they have a strong single player campaign or experience.

Another CGI trailer arrives. Not much different to what they showed us on E3. Is it going to be a movie or a game? They have teased us a bit too much now. Don't you think that they should reveal the game by now?

This game just doesn't interest me...anyone else here with me?

I mean when there are games like Witcher 3 coming out next year this just doesn't seem like it will stand out. It seems very generic to say the least...

It does seem generic, but it still looks cool as hell. It would be cool if they incorporated deteriorating equipment and weapons, like how the dude's shield was melting from the dragon fire in the other trailer. If a game can get a mechanic like that down pat, it would be exciting. Still waiting on gameplay footage for this game, though.

Generic yes, but graphically quite good.

I somehow feel like that whole game is a dungeon crawler where you try to go further and further down that one dungeon until you reach the very bottom. Maybe because your freedom lies there or something.
Maybe you can go back to the surface to party and gear up and then skip some parts of it or maybe you can't but it's randomly generated to keep it from getting stale and it's to make a point of how much stronger you have become. Let's say you made it to the 5th level on one go until you had to go back up but you leveled up or got some great new gear and on your next go you just breeze through those levels and make it to level 10 or even further. It would be a good way of both showing the player their progress in a more real, hands-on way than just having numbers show on your screen and also would make for a good risk-vs-reward system where you have to really consider if you want to try just one more floor for the great stuff you hope to find there or go back up so you don't die, which also means though that you have to go through all these previous levels again.

Maybe it could even be perma-death. Which I would find pretty interesting in an online game. And you could become a true legend among the community by taking certain risks or being the first to make it to a certain level.
