I gotta say, it looks pretty awesome, but... I hope they have a lot of tricks up their sleeve and its not just cinematic-y linear walks through endless masses of enemies.
Space Marines 2 is my ... oh, well ... i'm off re playing Space Marine OG for a spine ... to set the mood (uuuuuhhhh aaaaahhhhh.... WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!)
but i do agree with you, on playing rather than watching ;)
rock on!!!! :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout: :rockout:
Surely, the first Space Marine was definitely an unfinished, rushed, repetitive game and somewhat had much to be desired, especially in the terms of combat moves/actions variety. But I have to tip my hat before Relic and Vigil, because neither the SM1, nor any of the Darksiders games on the same engine, had such unnatural animation. And they captured that whole 'enormous superhuman' gist very well. It still has very spot on smooth transitions between action, weapon, movement and other animations being contineous. No choppy and skipped ones.
Though, someone gonna say it was clunky, but it still hold well to this very day. Some might also say, SM1 was just rip off of Gears of War. However neither it, nor SM1 had the melee action animation being just skipped/dropped so instantly. When the player's character has been hit or interrupted. Instead, there was another animation, of enemy repell and parry player's hits, and deflecting it, causing the player's char to fall, or lean down towards the ground. But never skipped like this.
Yes, I agree, there's however a lot of other movements and animation in SM2, that have very natural and realistic transition from one to another. So were in the first part. But these chainsword movement skipping are definitely an oversight.
