Posted August 19, 2008 10 years. I cancelled my pre order last night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 I'm sure this should be funny. Instead I just feel disappointed. Ah well. *Cue closing credits music to the Hulk TV show as I walk away* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 10 years. I cancelled my pre order last night. Aaaah, I remember the teaser for the Gamecube version in 2000. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 And before that it was a PS1 title. I can see why Nintendo dropped SK... they're useless and headed by a complete fucking moron. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 Still be getting it here ^_^ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 And before that it was a PS1 title. I can see why Nintendo dropped SK... they're useless and headed by a complete fucking moron. Yup! Filing lawsuits against Epic and attacking internet messageboards. From his OXM interview: I think we took for granted how innovative the game was. First of all, the demo got a tremendous amount of attention. We've had over a million downloads, the reception has been by and large extremely positive. But what we're also seeing is for the people who don't like it, generally just don't get it. And it's because we've created something so innovative and different. It's ironic, it just shows that human nature of if you don't understand something, you immediately attack it. It's pretty interesting in that regard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 Or you know, its a generic hack and slash that has the attacks in different places coupled with a boring, generic story and unnecessary frustrating gameplay. Nice one Dyack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 19, 2008 I haven't played the game but I feel that much of the bad rep it gets comes from Dyack's large public exposure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 Eurogamer gave it 6/10 http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=217371 This is like Haze all over again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 I haven't played the game but I feel that much of the bad rep it gets comes from Dyack's large public exposure. Nah, the demo is pretty rubbish. They spent all this time to come up with the worst combat system they could think of. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 Yeah, I think this is the 360's Haze. Big exclusive with promising mechanics that ultimately didn't turn out as good as it could have been. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 19, 2008 I'll still be buying it! once it's in the bargain bin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 21, 2008 Haha reading the IGN review posted on page two... Too Human is about as straightforward as they come. The game is comprised of four stages, apparently designed by a civil engineer who specializes in highways. hehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 21, 2008 How did they go from the sublime Eternal Darkness to something so terrible (from review scores at least) in comparison? And aren't they planning another two of these games? dear fucking god I hope they just give up now and focus on what they always should have... A sequel to Eternal Darkness.

Posted August 21, 2008 Answer = no nintendo involvment with this one. Yea, I'm fairly sure that Nintendo own the sanity system. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 21, 2008 What I mean is, they have effectively "wasted" their time making this which seems to have turned out "meh" according to reviews when they could have been making the game that everyone wanted them to make in the first place, a sequel to Eternal Darkness...

Posted August 22, 2008 And this is supposed to be the first in a trilogy! I imagine this was an expensive game to produce, especially being 10 years in the making! The Too Human series may have to drop the 360 exclusivity if it's to make its money. That or just can the series! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 22, 2008 I cancelled my preorder this morning. I have a feeling this game will go in the bargain bins very quickly and when that happens I will pick it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 22, 2008 Gametrailers Review - 6.5 http://www.gametrailers.com/player/38913.html They say there's only around 10 hours of gameplay! with a lot of your time just being spent in menu's! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 22, 2008 Yeah, I just checked out the GT review and it looks like Too Human has turned out to be fairly cack. Disappointing, ten years in development and I (like everyone else) was expecting it to be a classic. Remember it was meant to be a Gamecube game! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 23, 2008 such high hopes! bah! fuck it, then. There are simply too many games that look far, far better than this coming out in a few months. There's really no reason to invest in this now. Clearly, they're heading for a flop, the sequels will be canned and in all likelyhood the studio is going to be up shit creek.

Posted August 28, 2008 I only just found out about the bad reviews for this game a few mins ago. Damn I'm in shock.... they had been planning this game for 10 years, originally on the PS1. It was meant to be so big it would be on 4 discs. It was then moved to the Gamecube and they still couldn't finish it in that generation. It's dev time has spanned 3 consoles, one in each generation and one on each company. All the while we were made believe to expect something epic. What the hell happened? This game was meant to be triple A. and a major franchise. Damn... i'm no longer sure i'd want to see an Eternal Darkness 2 anymore now... unless Nintendo helped with the development Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
