If this game looks like whats shown in this showcase in its actual gameplay - im veeeery excited. Super artistic, and impressive visuals and sounds.
It dis say it was in-engine so it seems like it will!
This looks 10x better than all those games that strive for reality because mimicking reality is still too far.
Song: Rev. Gary Davis - Death Don't Have No Mercy
Thanks!
What's this version? that has the beats at the end
Is there a longer version?
Thank yah
@@Mimiccry Those are like stock added trailer beats lol. The original recording is just a guy and his guitar cuz it's blues. do some stampin and clappin if you really like those beats though lol.
I highly recommend listening to the original. it isn't as crisp as the Xbox version but the lyrics are so deep and it's the Blues which fits into all eras especially now more than ever. It gives me a sense of purpose and makes me realise that we all suffer bereavement and go through the dark night of the soul and if humanity stand together we can make any future reality possible@@Mimiccry
Please please let the game look like this... Love the style
They stated in the xbox wire blog that its in engine this what the game is going to look like
That's great news
I really hope prayer it does look like this indeed
I just wish the release day was way closer. I hate such a long period of anticipation.
@@sunofabob you want good games? you gotta wait
"In Georgia folklore, the Altamaha-ha (or Altie) is a legendary creature, alleged to inhabit the myriad small streams and abandoned rice fields near the mouth of the Altamaha River (after which it is named) in southeastern Georgia. Sightings are particularly reported around Darien and elsewhere in McIntosh County."
It makes the game that much better with some background knowledge of what it's about, so thank you for this 🤙🏽😉 very awesome 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Jesus, this is one of the most gorgeous animations I've ever seen. I really hope this is what the actual game looks like. That lead character is gorgeous too!
It said it was in-engine so it seems so.
Love seeing the pivot away from strict “photo realism” and putting a lil style in games
@@ashadowyfigure8469 That's sorta how I've felt towards the borderlands art style
I need more games with kind of energy. Like Hunt: Showdown, I really dig the old Louisiana mystic-horror feel and need more games of multiple different genres with this kind of vibe
Red dead redemption 2 has a nice bayou setting down in lemoyne if I’m not mistaken. but then again it’s not solely based on that specific location but is nice nonetheless
I love the Deep South setting. All the marshes and humidity, boons and curses.
A super underrated genre.
Should’ve won game of the year
this style is called "Southern Gothic"
I love the Louisiana bayou voodoo priestess monster hunter vibes
It's about time someone delved into the deep and well established folklore of the south. Full of lots of really interesting and awesome monsters and legends.
As a born and raised Arkansas resident, I completely agree with this. I just hope they somewhat involve Arkansas or some other neighboring states, you know? Because like you said, the south is RICH with folklore and history. Whether it’s the backwoods or the bayous, people always have a story to tell as long as there’s someone willing to listen.
This looks incredible! Love the stop motion feel.
Fingers crossed that the trailer style translates over to the in-game presentation. Very intrigued!
Did state that it was in-engine, so what we’re seeing is the real deal
@@Jarjar-Xit was in engine doesnt mean its the game itself remember cyberpunk and watchdogs
@@JD-yg4xh it’s compulsion. There’s nothing to worry about in its development
@Jarjar-X yea i guess but having hype really makes the expectations high, and i dont want that happening again
I was just listening to the original "Death Don't Have No Mercy" by Blind Gary Davis, and this popped up, looks interesting, It's good to see the blues make a resurgence with such a reverence to the art that this "Shakin Bones" character seems to hold in his design, and direction.
Looks to me that the fingers line up perfectly with the music. Awesome trailer. Hoping we get to explore some awesome Blues culture with some original Black characters. This gives me Supergiant vibes, and as they're my favorite developer, that's extremely high praise. Very very very cool.
THE THUMB PRINTS ON THE MODELS??? IM ABSOLUTELY ENTHRALLED. PLEASE MAKE THE GAME EVEN HALF AS BEAUTIFUL AS THIS
This is rendered in-engine
The semi-decomposing giant is giving me ideas he might be some River king of the Bayou... Which is most scary, intriguing and amazing
Holy smokes! This trailer had me absolutely captivated. I want a full movie.
Yes. Definitely, a movie would be so much better than a game
i keep coming back for the song.
Finally something fresh and original, definitely looking forward to this one.
Trailers like this make me so excited, even without any context of what the game may be
its forspoken.
@@Dead_Goat Forspoken, inventor of black women.
This is not just game. It looks like awesome artwork. I want one.
Not gonna lie i wish it was a movie first then a game. I was well invested in the story off this short clip alone. I wanted to see the monsters face
im a sucker for guitar playing, I hope there's more of it.
I swear to god this better not be a situation where the trailer has one art style but the game has another. This looks so cool and unique!
It’s in engine footage so it looks like this in game too
The best thing I've seen from *any* of the game company showcases so far this season. Can't wait for more info on it, going to be looking out for this one.
I’m a sucker for southern gothic vibes
Absolutely gorgeous animation, and I'm just fascinated by what the protagonist is doing with that magic. I know little enough about Deep South folklore, and I'm excited to learn more!
If I can listen to a lot of Shaken Bones music in game while I play I'm definitely with it.
If anyone is wondering the song is Death don't have no Mercy by the Rev. Gary Davis
Love the Spiderverse style animation, not just the art itself but the way they animate with fewer frames to give it a stop-motion feel. Great stuff.
Got more of a claymation type feel
See, I don’t know if the newer generation knows this, but we call this stop motion because Claymation popularized it, which existed far before spider man had movies. Why do you think that into the spider verse invented not having a smooth frame rate? This game looks nothing like into the spider verse. No cartoon effects, no 2d animation except for the title but that doesn’t count. I love that movie too but it wasn’t even the first movie/tv show to start doing this, many smaller studios had done 2d/3d animation before, and this game is based on claymation, one of the first types of animation.
@UrMom-bb2mi I literally mention stop-motion in my OP & I never said Spiderverse started anything. To deny its influence, though, is just ridiculous.
you said "love the spider verse style animation" this is not spider verse style animation are you going to tell me it is?.@@t0mom
@@UrMom-bb2mi I know what stop motion is but I called it claymation because of the textures of the world in the trailer
Big shout out to Rev. Gary Davis🎸
Thats the most realistic animated Guitar Playing i have ever seen its so amazing like every note is accurate 🙂🙂 i never thought it was possible 🙂🙂
I'm rooting for this game, especially as it's the same studio that made We Happy Few... hope it's different this time and lives up to this gorgeous trailer!!
90% of the staff that made we happy few were bullied out of the company because they are white men, this game is made by racists
This looks so good. Pray gameplay is as good as the art direction.
This is one of the better looking games (concept) that was shown off.
I'm looking forward to this more than Avowed that's for sure.
I am in love. absolutely incredible music, look, and animation all meshing together to make something super cool. (love the wonky/offset frame rates.) I've never seen something like this and want to see more of it so badly
At first I thought it was a camera trick, then I realized he was just GIANT. That's golden character design.
Hope it has this style music throughout the game
The art style looks amazing, like stop-motion borderlands
If this dude and his guitar aren't in the game, I don't want it.
Absolutely. Gorgeous!
Love the stop motion feel! Super excited!
Never thought i'd hear Gary Davis in a game.
I hope the song is in there, like the ending version and the regular. That would be awesome.
looks good
curious to see gameplay
I've had this on my wishlist ever since I first came across it. Beyond excited for it.
This looks absolutely amazing!
His voice is amazing, I want to hear more
I’m still high off joy and ready to see what comes next!
Wow this looks beautiful, I’d love to play this.
The Altamaha-ha… Isn’t that a Georgia sea-monster?
Okay, This Game Looks Awesome!!! I love the Arcane-like art style
I was looking for this trailer for so long! I've seen it once and I wasn't able to find it again! Thanks youtube
The thumbnail caught my attention. The video has captured my interest. Eager to see more on this game.
Might actually have to buy this just for the style
This just gave me chills. Amazing delta blues
No idea what the story or gameplay is like but the art style has me sold
Fiber Art represent! A distaff on her back, and the drop spindle bandolier?! YES!
Okay, I am SO getting this game
I can’t wait until the show an actual trailer 🔥
Based on the tree I can already guess the story is going to be of our character hunting down evil spirits
shaken bones reminds me of robert jhonson
i keep coming back to this video is sooo good PLEASEEEE LET THE GAME BE GOOD
Love the art style chosen for the visuals! And the music that can go with this is going to be amazing!
Looks like a great game. Can't wait for some real gameplay footage to get a better idea of what it is
how have i not seen this before???? I love the artstyle of this!!!
Como musico de blues, me siento encantado de esta canción en un juego de la actualidad
i'm in love with this
death don't have no mercy name of song
i don’t know what’s goin’ on but i love it
Deranged Kid : Mom can we have forspoken?
Mom : No we have forspoken at home.
The forspoken at home.
Ah yes, TH-cam advertisements before watching an advertisement.
I never played the game, or even know the game, but this song touched my soul
Good looking game and I love the music. Please don't disappoint us and let the game look like this.
Hope they don't forget about this one. I somehow missed this 7 months ago, looks excellent.
the man reminds me of dr facilier after princess and the frog and now i can’t unsee it
The rabbit gives it up as doon as it sees the paper, so good
Who knew Compulsion Games, the same studio who made We Happy Few made this its crazy
This is… absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Heck yes! I didn’t know this game was in production!
Unfortunatly im not welcome to play this game. Looks amazing tho, good luck
Mmmmm Bayous and blues, literally the vibe I have been looking for in a game for YEARS, it don't happen a lot.
Dang now i gotta get an xbox specifically for this game 8m blown away
Chills LITTERAL CHILLS
Dang! This looks so cool!
Need gameplay. Loving the spiderverse/ Guillermo Del Toro Pinocchio look/feel
Holy COW. So im not gonna lie Im JUST NOW seeing this trailer,,, but this is actually insane. Im a huge fan of Louisiana history and culture, and the whole role that swampy blues has played into it, and this instantly gave me chills. The animation, color palette, general theme, music, AMAZING. We need more!!!
Death don't have no mercy sold me on this game!!!
I really hope that Compulsion Games learned their lesson after We Happy Few. This looks awesome
What are you on we happy few was great
@@jeed-qf1kx It had its issues
I hope this game can live up to this short trailer
Need more games that dive into old American folklore. Lots of potential there. Blue grass music, monsters and legends, it would be really good
This looks insane
Not only this looks like a Laika studio mvoie, but also I am pretty shure the guitar was accurately animated and it excites me
The game looks amazing like a cross between sketchbook,claymation,and cgi
sweet baby inc detected
Racist detected
This is #1 on my watch list
I loved everything about this from the visuals to the music. The music was almost too good. Hope is has music even half as good in the game. Getting my hopes up for this one. Also have the song in my playlist.😅
That ending version of the song....I need the full version because that beat.....was perfect
I WANT THIS SONG..
This game remind me of Voodoo Vince 😩 the music, the style…. Looking forward to check this game!
these movies r so underrated! loved watching all ur reactions, and hope u watch the second one (:
At first I thought it was Robert Johnson one of the most famous blues artist of all time
We will be there 🙌
Dude I legit thought this was a movie when I first saw it
some parts of this had such a bad frame rate that i almost died irl
I think thats the style lol
I have such high hopes for this game!
