Another mindless shooter vs monster/alian/zombies where your just charging around killing?
Dont we have enough games like this?
Altho the city looks like it would be fun to explore.
As opposed to what though, charging around killing humans/vampires/animals? Or maybe cover based shooting against any enemy?
I don't fully get this "it's just a mindless shooter" attitude based on a few minutes of in game footage. We've done pretty much every type of shooter against almost every type of enemy (except for, I don't know, a stealth game involving zombies or something?) so now it's not so much the concept as the execution and the story.
This could well have a deep, engaging story with realistic characters and even throw out some heart rending motive for the aliens/zombies/other enemies. Writing it off as a generic shooter so soon seems to be a bit presumptive.
As for my opinion on the trailer, looks like it has potential. I also like to have an array of weapons but it seemed that some of them were verging on useless in the context shown. Unless there are stealth sections why use a crossbow when you have a shotgun, assault rifle and sniper rifle? I guess only time will tell.
