Sounds awesome.

 

[Rapstah]

After a brief opening cinematic

Wha-

 

[knut]

Come off it - it's got to have some cinematics. It is the goddamn opening of the game for christs sake. :|

Good preview or whatever.

 

[Rapstah]

I hate them. [cutscenes]

We want the player to experience things themselves.

Then WHY DON'T WE START ON THE GODDAMN AIRPLANE?

 

[knut]

Why should you? As far as I know, you're meant to try and unearth why you crashed [amongst other things, obviously] It'd be like Lost explaining why the airplane crashed for them in the very first episode.

 

[Rapstah]

You can be on a crashing airplane without knowing why it goes down, you know.

 

[KagePrototype]

For the love of ****, shut up about cutscenes.

 

[Rapstah]

Cutscenes!

Ohshi-

 

[knut]

You can be on a crashing airplane without knowing why it goes down, you know.

But what would be the point of it? It'd just be like every other WWII airbourne game where your plane goes down. The screen goes shaky, people start falling over, bit of smoke for effect... big woop, waste of 5 minutes. :\

 

[Kyorisu]

The plane is irrelevant it's just a tool to say why your there, it happened and doesn't need to be explained.

 

[Lucid]

Don't care about anything just so long as the game is actually fun.

 

[VictimOfScience]

The first and foremost reason I am getting it is the ambience. I just want to wander around the spooky underwater depths and feel the sea slowly seeping in to come and claim me.

 

[Tollbooth Willie]

Claim you from the inside! OOOOOH!

Game is looking GREAT.
