  1. I’m sure the D+ is kind of a thing for Elemental but the hype and buzz around it has been non existent to bad. That’s hurts it worse. Everything is so expensive these days that’s families just aren’t gonna spend the money on a below average movie. If Elemental was Up or even Inside Out quality and people were talking about how good it was, people would be flocking to the theater despite the D+ expectations. 
     

    People still love going to the movies, they just can’t afford to go see anything regardless of quality anymore.

    I finished the demo. And out of supposedly a 2-3 hr demo I actually played literally less than 20 minutes. That's not good at all. I get the opening might be front loaded with exposition but damn, that's not a great way to promote your game by having an watchable demo. Should have been a part of the game with 2-3 hrs of you know.. Gameplay 


    There’s a whole other part that unlocks after you finish the story that’s literally nothing but gameplay. 

  3. Pretty sure there’s room in the world for both From style story telling and FF style story telling. I love Souls games and discovering the lore as you go. But I also absolutely love the fuck out of huge over the top story telling with plot twists and emotions and all kinds of insane shit. 
     

    And this demo does give you both. You get a little glimpse into the crazy story telling but then when you’re done it unlocks a mode where it throws you later into the game with a lot more abilities unlocked so you can try out more advanced gameplay. 
     

    Hence, one of the best demos of all time 👍🏻

  4. I’ll chime in on the level scaling/something missing. 
     

    I’m running a Barbarian and felt the exact same way. Weapons felt pointless and everything was a struggle. But now at level 40(running WT2) I’m starting to crush everything and I’m one shoting a fair number of enemies. This version really is more about getting your skills to a place where they’re combing off each other as well as your weapon. I picked up a new Axe and there was a noticeable bump in damage. So for those struggling I’d say just stick with it. It does eventually get to the feel you’re looking for.

  5. Little to no actual gameplay, the “in engine” nonsense a cop out. 
     

    I believe only 4 actual dates. I get in the current climate Devs are less willing to put a solid date on things and that’s fine. But when you’re a company that is being bashed for not having any games, and you don’t deliver dates as well as not actual gameplay to prove the games are close? Not good.

    Starfield looks pretty awesome. Just hope all those mechanics actually work properly and the bugs are limited for something so grand. 
     

    The first party stuff they showed, outside of Starfield, looks pretty meh

     

    But at least there’s games? Maybe?
