From 2024 Player of WUWA: I just stumbled upon this video and watched it, I was SHOOCKED on why I don't see this in-game but saw it was 2 yr ago game preview, The vibe on this was awesome, the design, the graphic, view, etc., I do hope they add this City as One main City in the future even tho it was supposed to be the Jinzhou City, the grappler and Menu feature too is just 😍🔥‼️
At that time, many Genshin Impact players were complaining about why the game didn't look like Genshin Impact, complaining about the gray and cold graphics, complaining about the bad wasteland style, and complaining about the characters' costumes not being fantasy-style enough. This led Kuro to mistakenly think that his style wasn't good enough, so they changed WUWA into the second Genshin Impact.
It's interesting how much Jinzhou changed. This version looks like it has more actual homes for people to live in. Feels more like a real fortified city. The version we have in game barely seems to have any homes in it and has too much unused space.
@@naberiouslazarus2505 they didn't, they created Punishing Gray Raven. You're thinking of Hypergryph's other project, Arknights: Endfield. This is by Team Kuro.
This is exactly what I wanted from ToF but they got fixated on becoming Genshin’s competitor too much to the point where it just resembles a cheap copy. This game looks absolutely stunning and unique, almost like the perfect mix between PGR and Genshin.
ToF's controls, world, character designs(such as those sassy child characters with big heads and drug seller pose) and its puzzles are absolute sh:t. It was a big disappointment. Edit: Also its optimization, p2w mechanic too was a big bullsh:t
@@ThegreatHera420 should’ve been done when they released it. If it’s wasn’t, which it wasn’t, they should’ve delayed it. If you’re alright with half assed products just say that
Can't wait to see what a more refined version of the City looks like. Definitely needs some more polish here and there, it's a bit too clean and lots of unused space at some parts.
That could be the vibe their going for. A clean and clear distinction between cluttered areas and minimalistic area. Guess we'll have to wait till launch to see.
Well, the NPC'sand the decorations are a bit lacking,but the architecture definitely reminds me of Modern China. Of course, modern China is more packed than this. But maybe it's a stylistic choice? After all, this is a post apocalyptic world.
@@Titanic_Tuna Perhaps, but I'd love to see them be a bit more vibrant with the color contrast. It looks just fine in the daytime, and I'd say it captures the minimalism quite well. But for nighttime, they should definitely explore more lighting options, such as neon billboards, holograms, a mesmerizing skyline etc. I get what you mean with the "clean and clear" feel. Daytime definitely screams Mirror's Edge in that regard. But ME: Catalyst showed that the same minimalistic cityscape can look drastically different during the night, almost like it's more alive than it is during the day. I just loved that feeling. Another reason I chose Mirror's Edge for reference is because of the music - it just has that same vibe.
Watching her just vault right over that device in the beginning 0:14 was a 😮moment after so much Genshin and taking about 3 seconds to climb a candle that you didn't mean to run into anyway. A welcome improvement.
See i have common sense. Ive gained the amazing ability that most people lack. Which is to enjoy two things at once. So im gonna be playing both. I know. Its crazy
hollyy.. is this Jinzhou? i like this more than the current one ngl.. the current one feels like so many big empty space. Dayum... Why did they change it? should've just stick with this one, and polished it. Edit: okay, i just finished watching the video, my honest reaction would be: what the fck? All of the things shown in the video is great, like the Menu Screen, Swinging Mechanic, i dont really care about the glider, but it's still a cool concept.. like imagine we getting a better and polished version of what we saw in this video, the game would feels so much better idc if anyone says it looks "empy" the vibe is dark, like yeah we're on the post apocalyptic world, just look how beautiful and well constructed the city is, the city feels like a place where people live there.. i dont say the new one is not great, but there are so many big empty space here and there, it feels tiring just walking around the city, but if the city looks like this? im not going to use the tp unless i'm speed running.. i cant believe i'm saying this, but in the video, the city looks more like a city than what we got currently, the new one feels like just one big area where u meet many people, like no one lives there, they're there for entertainment, shopping, meet their friends, etc.. that's what i'm feeling from the current one.. they got potential, but playing too safely and afraid, just like how they change 90% of the story, removing all the cutscenes we've seen so far on the cbt 1, like bro, all of their cinematic just straight up fire, the character's great.. but they seems to take ALL complain from the mainland crying this and that.. honestly, im disappointed that they waste all their work just because they're playing save and afraid.. hopefully they continue to cook, and bring back this kind of concept in the future.. i dont want that they make a city that dont feels like a city, i want this game to be succesful and loved by the community
I like this town. It looks like a traditional Chinese mountain village but with technology. But they should make the NPC more dynamic, like making them go to work, do things, sell things, buy things, talk to each other. And add some transportation system, like cars or scooters.
I really like the tonality of the world. It gives it a quite different environment compared to other games of the same genre. I have faith in Kurogames...
If pgr is anything to go by, they won't cheap out on anything in this game. It looks good already, just needs some movement polishing and combat polish.
I love how fun the movement looks! I love that parkour is apart of it. I feel like once the game is launched globally, I’ll definitely be playing around a lot with the movement system lol if there’s fast travel/waypoints I think I’m mostly going to run to the destination instead
It would be much fun if we do like parkours like assassin's creed. I don't care if this game takes 1 to 2 more years to be released as long as the results are neat and fantastic 👌
my blood pressure going high right now because WHY DID THEY THROW ALL OF THIS OFF THE BUSSSS who is responsible to this?! is tencent responsible?? new department team? i am telling the truth when i say i am crying of annoyance at how much is removed! the interface, the wrist watch as the settings, the friggin depressing despairing sad sad music.. why did they remove all of this creativity? this couldve been a sci fi rpg made open world for playes who play games like pgr, arknights and etc!!
Devs were afraid game would flop and were listening too much feedback thats why they thrown away sci-fi edgy post-apo setting/aesthetics and went for wuxia gen***t safe route. Speacking optimisticly they can regain early cbt stuff and vibes in future major versions, if they feel confident enough to not sticking to gen***t anymore, but that's probably cope. Because Kuro don't have their own Hideo Kojima (Death Stranding refering) or Yoko Taro (NieR refering) to make outstanding games and just doing what CN whales are saying them to do ( i think what we should have get is Nier+Death Stranding+DMC) Gotta enjoy what we have now and keep expectations low or move on to next game.
SAME man, i literally cannot form my frustration into words it's fuckin insane. i always felt something was off during the cbt phases, it's like they were slowly losing the vision they were going with, and when the game released it was full of bugs and unoptimizations, but those were the least of my concerns because the game literally DOES NOT look and feel like what it was supposed to be, that's when it really hit me, they've truly lost the games' vision. it barely even feels sci-fi now, it's like they just squeezed those sci-fi elements through. in the end i guess there's nothing i can do about it and just swallow the game for what it currently is... but even still, my biggest nitpick rn is the generic fuckass UI, imagine if they really went with the Death Stranding-inspired UI back in the tech test and improved on it, but i guess we'll never know🤷
AHHH the wall running! I never thought I needed it again after Prototype 1&2 but damn....Just need a few surround sound to add to the City liveliness already made it near perfect...of course if you gonna compare it to Genshin detail or graphic it will look bit underwhelming but you need to know that Hoyoverse/Mihoyo isnt small company now compared to this dev team, the resource that they have is vastly diffrent...but whos gonna hate to have another great game right?
Not even in beta yet...we have seen what Kuro Games is capable of in PGR...I just hope the dev team assigned for WW have the same passion as the ones in PGR....And yeah, comparing Kuro Games with Hoyoverse is like comparing Nothing with Apple. Right now they have only one game released that is PGR where as Hoyoverse has multiple titles. PGR is very F2P friendly, so they have even less income. So I am very glad to see they managed to afford another team for WW.
Acually even if you compare it to genshin it's not underwhelming, genshin focuses on fantasy so the animation will feel alot more what's the word, beautiful ig? While wuthering waves has this whole modern world vibes and the colors+design definitely fit this vibe
This seriously looks so great. The movements remind me of nier automata and the world around you has a modern feel to it. You can even run up walls? I wonder what explanation they gave for that as I really like lore. I'll definitely be waiting to try this game out.
Kuro games are huge NieR fans, which is what makes me so excited for this game. I already play their other game (PGR) and if this game's quality and attention to detail is on the same level then we are in for a treat
Every once in awhile I come back to this, for some reason it has this calming vibe. Can’t wait for its release just to sit atop the building and chill looking at the scenery and the ost.
Because probable you haven't played chinese martial arts mmorpgs. The mmorpg chinese market is full of them. Games that take as inspiration chinese martial arts series and movies like Tiger and Dragon, House of flying daggers or Legends of Condor Heroes. It's quite usual in such kind of games to be able to do things like running up walls, running over water, jumping two story buildings heights or soar on Air.
I take it that you never play Prototype It's really cool, literally hero simulator if the hero can murder everyone And its also from the people who made Ghost of Tsushima too.
kinda sucks that we didn't get this in the full release. this feels like a place where people could actually live and work; current jinzhou feels too "empty".
I like how current Jinzhou looks the empty one for you This one feels more "empty" but i think it's like that because of the stylistic choice (even the music gives that feel) Meanwhile release is "busy" but has nothing to do
@@ComplexAce Enraging? That's not even it. And I get where y'all are coming. This Jinzhou's is literally similar to PGR vibes, except it looks unpolished and devoid of proper elements. I love post apocalyptic themes more than anything too and I would rather have this(obviously a polished and better version of it) if I had a choice, but don't pretend as if this is better than the current Jinzhou.
Bruv, I feel the same way, CBT1 was peak of aesthetic-wise of this game. They erased so much cool and next-gen-feels stuff, and visuals is pretty broken right now: e.g. sword animations on Sanhua, lack of red-sword skin of Danjin (also there's no red orb on her hand showing ready for hold attack), and the list goes on, and on... It's sad that Tencent just tell 'em to erase all cool stuff just to be more associated with Genshin and their fanbase. Because of that WuWa wont succeed hard, they didn't wanted to be unique game and with THAT power be more closer to beat Genshin, they choose to be just better Tower of Fantasy...
We can expect a lot of Genshin comparisons like what happened to Tower of Fantasy. Anyway, the graphics, location's design and character movement animations are amazing and clean. One thing Genshin absolutely owns ToF in is the polish and smoothness of the animations since ToF's movement feels quite stiff and "cheaper". This video shows polished smooth animations, which is a great sign of the game for when more is released in the future. Of course we can't jump the boat and dub this game a "Genshin/ToF killer" since this is still very early footage. I'm definitely excited and looking forward to playing this. 😁
I’d just ignore the comparisons. I don’t care to hear how a game compares to Genshin. This game looks smooth af. Pink haired girl has tig ol biddies. Life is good.
@@DrSwazz Genshin they censored all the threads about comparing Genshin movement and attacks with Nier. There was a huge thread about it when the game started in the Mihoyo forums. Probably if you search you can find a comparison between the two games movement on youtube or something.
It’s really interesting to see people return to this video now that the game has released! Majority of those agreeing that Wuthering Waves has lost its vision for the sake of pleasing a larger audience. I know for a fact, a lot of the changes were made to appeal to Genshin Impact players. The complaints about the world being dull, lifeless and unsaturated in cb1/2 forced Kuro to pull a 180 on their design choices by going for more of a fantasy-like world. At least, when compared to the tech test, I really do believe this game was supposed to be an entirely Sci-Fi post-op dystopia. It has kept those elements somewhat but something honestly does feel off about the game. It’s really unfortunate that Vanguard wasn’t able to create the game’s OST either. I feel as if there are gaps with the music being repetitive in a lot of areas. This is a really long thread but I just want to clarify, I’ve been around since the earliest stage of development, seeing it grow over the years makes me really happy for KURO. I’m positive they’ll make better changes in the future though, just as they did with beta PGR. All we can do now is hope the design team listens less to mindless feedback and create the world they intended to in the first place, because the real players know what a KURO game looks like.
you gotta give them props. you know how they care and listen to their playerbase, even during pgr days, they tend to listen. Tho I wonder how different would it be if they continue with this. it looks dystopian I also look its current look, but I don't mind seeing this in the future as an additional content
@@Bryanzilla Absolutely! They really are a great company for that. I think looking back, I was just reminiscing about the early days of Wuwa but it’s a decision they made for the best
Such a great looking open world. Finally no disney vibes and rainbows. Amazing music. Top combat system developed for pgr. If it is also well optimized for phones, it will become the greatest game of this genre released for me.
3:41 damn the sound and opening menu and the changing time was so much better here. rn it looks so bad in this current released today the time change is so ugly rn 💀
Yeah I don't get why the company scrapped cool ideas, the game ended up being good, but the menu UI and time changer were better before, now the new stamina and health bar are way better than the old ones
some animation looks better than the final release, like step effect when you running on the wall. and the animation/effect while you walk/running and you change the direction (joystick) to left or right, it looks so good
Damn, coming late but i was checking on this game traversal, and it looks so good ! The fact that you can start a wallrun from a climbing position opens up so much possibilities for exploration ! With a system like that, i'm even kind of hoping for some dungeons with traps and all...
yk I’m always very picky when it comes to rpgs and open worlds in general. I usually don’t like how the characters feel separated from the world sort of. Now finally the characters feel like they have weight and each object has a distinct shape that we can interact with!! Now I am certain I will love this game.
yeah it looked much better, seems like Kuro kicked their only UI designer and let a random guy make a new UI. i hope they will change it or at least give us an option to switch from that ugly font
Yeahhhh after watching and comparing this video to the current Jinzou I can confidently say that listening to feedback isn’t always a good thing lol. So many things and ideas seemed so much better than what we got in the full release. Imagine if they polished and kept cooking with this one instead of revamping it to the current one we have now….
I like the bgm. The building style is very unique, it reminds me of Huizhou/Suzhou style houses. Overall looking more to this game. I hope they can show us more style of traditional chinese houses/courtyard inspired, preferably like Siheyuan or the buildings in the north (Beijing, Luoyang .. )
All the goddamn complaining about the dull look of the game from all the stupid bots caused Kuro to switch up this beautiful design. I wish sometimes Kuro would take a page out of Hoyoverse's book and not listen to us
Also, I am glad that the same ppl that complained dont play PGR because I would lose my shit if they made Kuro change up the look and feel of that game that would for sure cause a riot online and make ppl threaten Kuro Games devs
With this kind of movement and jumping animation, wall running, that wire thingy and how slow gliding seems. In the future, they'll probably add some some sort of parkour/free running challenge across some of the geometrically complex area and I am all for it.
TLDR; Wuthering Waves is swift, smooth, and the movement seems far more fleshed out than that of Genshin, which I played for a LONG while. I love movement, and WW just has more of it, while GI tacks on half assed features to make it seem more appealing. I’ve been playing GI for a long time (since launch day) and have been wanting to switch over to another game for a long time after I quit. I have to say, Wuthering Waves looks FAR more promising than what Genshin turned out to be. Movement looks very smooth and polished, Genshin in comparison looks and feels far more awkward. I mean for starters WW has a faster version of most movement options, from climbing to mantling To begin, I have always wanted more vertical mobility in GI. Something like a universal high jump that needs to be charged with time and stamina, but using it opens up so many combat options like repositioning, plunging attacks on characters normally not using that, or traversal. The glider in Gi is stiff and archaic, like out of OG God of War and the icarus wings, except you can’t even turn well. Similar to Kazuha, there’s an ability that gives a bit of upwards thrust, which makes the glider more usable in normal gameplay because making a mechanic easy to use, and better interconnected with combat and traversal enriches the overall experience. That’s why Kazuha in GI is so valuable to me. Fuck the dps numbers, I wanna actually use my glider to speed up my gameplay with wind jumps. There’s also a quick mantle, genshin has a slow ass climbing mechanic that is simply just a slog to use and makes me feel like I’m climbing in ghost of tsushima, except unlike GI characters Jin is a normal human and the game uses the slow climbing to improve the feel of the game (because stealth and slow movement is a playstyle in there) while GI is just frustrating and annoying. Here, it’s clean as fuck and integrated well, there’s a sense of consistent momentum compared to how genshin feels like it’s stop and go traffic, hell there’s still that momentum glitch where you can un-deploy the wind glider to stop and redeploy to get a moment of the remaining wind tunnel speed. ALSO THE VERTICAL WALLRUN, I wish more games had something like this, a long time ago a played a game that had a similar movement mechanic and it made the experience a lot more enjoyable because vertical spaces were more accessible for combat and escape routes and didn’t actively make me hate them like GI climbing. Smart move imo. There’s of course the horizontal wallruns but Titanfall already explains why that’s so good Then there’s the grapple. Ghost of Tsushima, Titanfall 2 ,(technically for Nero) Devil May Cry, and of course spiderman. You can’t go wrong with a grappling hook. Overall, very hyped for wuthering waves, and I can play day one to try it out without wasting money like a preorder game. Extremely promising from the other showcases and I hope this gives me another dose of good character action gameplay
I hope they will add more to the city cuz it feels like you are walking on lockdown zone. Birds on the ground, leaves falling down, and some sorts of environment effects will do.. I know those are little details but this huge city is so scary without those. I hope this is MMO.
I feel the same way. I hope eventually we get some large cities like this. Jinzhou is big, but all it's sections are layered. I've love a more urban sprawl like this.
man... this absolutely stunning. not even seems like another "genshin like" game although the graphics are similar, the gameplay is fire!! hope to see more content soon!
Wouldn't fit the vibe of a post apocalyptic world, maybe if it was some sort of safe haven yeah. Personally would like to see more depressing tones in game since that is far more interesting than some cookie cutter bland story.
Why do I feel like so many things looked better here than they do live? I mean the menu screen, some parkour moves look so much smoother, playable character feels more alive somehow and so on (I'm guessing mobile game restrictions but still)
@@yotadinz270 can't really say its "alive" when the theme of this game is post apocalyptic or almost apocalypse event. Plus Kuro Games arent exactly the best at making something feels alive. All I can see is hope and despair on their game theme. I get what you mean but idk man making the city alive might limit most mobile nowadays.
Could be because of there being too many hard angles in the design and the main colour scheme being just grey and black with yellow lights. Kinda looks more like a concrete jungle or photoshopped new condominium showcase; it could do with some more environment details to break up the monotony.
Somethings I like about this and some things I prefer more in the current version. Rover looks way better now in the current version. I like the UI for the main menu in this older version, it looks a lot more sci fi, the clock is way better. I don’t know if I like this Jinjou or current Jinjou but I would like a city that takes more inspiration from this older version. Maybe the Black Shores or something could look more like this idk but I like this older version design as well as the current version. I think I like this ambient music more than the current version’s ambient music I like that the grapple is more like a swing in this older version but I don’t know how that would play out during combat. I kind of like this glider more. Again, I like the more science to look of the glider, even though I’m usually more of a fantasy enjoyer. It’d be nice to have more choices to switch up gliders and switch up the Ui and stuff. Overall, I think Kuro should revisit some of these design choices cause this is pretty good.
All the crazy quirks with ToF and Wuthering Waves in order to be more unique than Genshin Impact. Not hating but I just find it funny. I am playing ToF and although I really like the boss raids with other players, crew interactions (guild), the story-telling and the overworld is just too bland. They should have made it memorable coz first impressions are always important. Genshin on the other hand provided us with very good story telling, pleasant to the eyes overworld, and reminscing BGM that made it nostalgic when we listen to it. Even when Dvalin flew over the traveler and then meeting Venti in the woods holding Dvalin was a powerful scene that makes players remember it. I hope the devs of Wuthering Waves won't just solely focus on the quirks and battle aspects of their game. They should put heart and emotions on main stories/quests as well.
I partly agree with you, but i'm utterly dissappointed with Genshin storytelling. I remember how it all started and there were so many crazy theories but at the end there's really nothing interesting story-wise unless you read descriptions of items. Story doesn't develop. And this is something I really don't like. I'm more of a "watcher", I don't go deep into items and stuff, I just follow the story game tells me and I can't even explain how dissappointed I was going through Inazuma. I don't get why the focus was shifted from interesting and somewhat creepy story to a completely childish fanbase things. I quit Genshin after Inazuma because I couldn’t bear the stupidity anymore. Anyone who at least heard about military would laugh at the war happening there. I even had a thought that team working on plot was fired. It's been stuck in my head for a while, I did like the game itself.
Really beautiful and the soundtrack is so mesmerizing! ❤️ The gameplay also looks great! Genshin clunky climbing ain't got nothing on this! I love how you can swing on your rope anywhere you want!

Not getting my hope too high,but it's kurogame
I'll just hope for a little bit
Got recommended after 2 years, the game changed quite alot i could say.
The game looks so good already and this is not even beta yet. So hyped!
I really like the tonality of the world. It gives it a quite different environment compared to other games of the same genre.
I have faith in Kurogames...
If pgr is anything to go by, they won't cheap out on anything in this game. It looks good already, just needs some movement polishing and combat polish.
I love how fun the movement looks! I love that parkour is apart of it. I feel like once the game is launched globally, I’ll definitely be playing around a lot with the movement system lol if there’s fast travel/waypoints I think I’m mostly going to run to the destination instead
It would be much fun if we do like parkours like assassin's creed. I don't care if this game takes 1 to 2 more years to be released as long as the results are neat and fantastic 👌
@@mauveyplays assassin’s creed’s movement would be so sick!!
We gotta recommend it to the devs 🤣
I reaaally hope they make the night even darker. Or give an option to make the night looks darker when you just wanna sight seeing and not exploring
That vaulting is really smooth sheesh
Now I'm low-key wishing for a parkour challenge in game
my blood pressure going high right now because WHY DID THEY THROW ALL OF THIS OFF THE BUSSSS who is responsible to this?! is tencent responsible?? new department team?
i am telling the truth when i say i am crying of annoyance at how much is removed! the interface, the wrist watch as the settings, the friggin depressing despairing sad sad music.. why did they remove all of this creativity?
this couldve been a sci fi rpg made open world for playes who play games like pgr, arknights and etc!!
Devs were afraid game would flop and were listening too much feedback thats why they thrown away sci-fi edgy post-apo setting/aesthetics and went for wuxia gen***t safe route.
Speacking optimisticly they can regain early cbt stuff and vibes in future major versions, if they feel confident enough to not sticking to gen***t anymore, but that's probably cope. Because Kuro don't have their own Hideo Kojima (Death Stranding refering) or Yoko Taro (NieR refering) to make outstanding games and just doing what CN whales are saying them to do ( i think what we should have get is Nier+Death Stranding+DMC)
Gotta enjoy what we have now and keep expectations low or move on to next game.
SAME man, i literally cannot form my frustration into words it's fuckin insane.
i always felt something was off during the cbt phases, it's like they were slowly losing the vision they were going with, and when the game released it was full of bugs and unoptimizations, but those were the least of my concerns because the game literally DOES NOT look and feel like what it was supposed to be, that's when it really hit me, they've truly lost the games' vision.
it barely even feels sci-fi now, it's like they just squeezed those sci-fi elements through.
in the end i guess there's nothing i can do about it and just swallow the game for what it currently is... but even still, my biggest nitpick rn is the generic fuckass UI, imagine if they really went with the Death Stranding-inspired UI back in the tech test and improved on it, but i guess we'll never know🤷
Hopefully they will add this as a new city or place of new federation or what. You know, a region where technologies are flourishing.😂
So fucking exaggerated and for what?!
True and Sad. at this point im just waiting for Endfield xd
AHHH the wall running! I never thought I needed it again after Prototype 1&2 but damn....Just need a few surround sound to add to the City liveliness already made it near perfect...of course if you gonna compare it to Genshin detail or graphic it will look bit underwhelming but you need to know that Hoyoverse/Mihoyo isnt small company now compared to this dev team, the resource that they have is vastly diffrent...but whos gonna hate to have another great game right?
It’s in very early development so the town isn’t finished yet
Not even in beta yet...we have seen what Kuro Games is capable of in PGR...I just hope the dev team assigned for WW have the same passion as the ones in PGR....And yeah, comparing Kuro Games with Hoyoverse is like comparing Nothing with Apple. Right now they have only one game released that is PGR where as Hoyoverse has multiple titles. PGR is very F2P friendly, so they have even less income. So I am very glad to see they managed to afford another team for WW.
"Who's gonna hate to have another great game"
More than a few lol
@@hayond656 I don't get those people honestly..
Acually even if you compare it to genshin it's not underwhelming, genshin focuses on fantasy so the animation will feel alot more what's the word, beautiful ig? While wuthering waves has this whole modern world vibes and the colors+design definitely fit this vibe
This seriously looks so great. The movements remind me of nier automata and the world around you has a modern feel to it. You can even run up walls? I wonder what explanation they gave for that as I really like lore. I'll definitely be waiting to try this game out.
will be pretty funny if we will actually play as cyborgs like Raiden from MGR, cuz he can also do a wallrun.
I mean, they're it a futuristic setting so I wouldn't even be surprised if they have tech like that
This may be me thinking silly but imagine just seeing a rando running up a windscreen while at work😂still it’s an interesting feature
Kuro games are huge NieR fans, which is what makes me so excited for this game. I already play their other game (PGR) and if this game's quality and attention to detail is on the same level then we are in for a treat
@@lemoniscate I'm really looking forward to it
Bruh imagine what the other environment will be in the future patches of these game! The city looks good damn 😖❤️
Idk how they salvages all of these but manages to came up with a new one, massive respect for me.
whoa that old main menu UI is cool😳😳😳
the apocalypse type color style is good though why'd they change it 😔
Seguramente lo cambiaron por el lore, ya que en esta Hiban a morir personajes
Y kuro le gusta hacer eso
Man I can't wait for this game, this looks so breathtaking!
Every once in awhile I come back to this, for some reason it has this calming vibe. Can’t wait for its release just to sit atop the building and chill looking at the scenery and the ost.
man, ich wish the game would look like this today ... really like the tech glider and the overall tech style ...
Looks like generic trash lil pup
@@marcuskane1040 Ah, I got it, Genshin lover here!
The city looks great visually, I wouldn't be surprised if Kuro says they hired Modern architects to model the city.
This looks so AWESOME! Can't wait to play this. Been playing PGR, Genshin and watching FF7 remake.. Looking forward to Aether gazer and TOF too.
Parkour?! Yeah dude I'm sold.
Added to must play list
This is the first game I’ve come across that you can just run up walls which is pretty cool. I look forward to playing this.
Because probable you haven't played chinese martial arts mmorpgs. The mmorpg chinese market is full of them. Games that take as inspiration chinese martial arts series and movies like Tiger and Dragon, House of flying daggers or Legends of Condor Heroes. It's quite usual in such kind of games to be able to do things like running up walls, running over water, jumping two story buildings heights or soar on Air.
I take it that you never play Prototype
It's really cool, literally hero simulator if the hero can murder everyone
And its also from the people who made Ghost of Tsushima too.
actually the dragon raja can do this too, but wuthering waves is on another level
@@vngdatabase105 yeah lot of power especially 2
@@PanDa-wp7vo what? i didn't know ghost of Tsushima was made by prototype devs too.
I’m already obsessed with this game. Praying it gets confirmed on PlayStation, which will massively boost its potential.
kinda sucks that we didn't get this in the full release. this feels like a place where people could actually live and work; current jinzhou feels too "empty".
I like how current Jinzhou looks the empty one for you
This one feels more "empty" but i think it's like that because of the stylistic choice (even the music gives that feel)
Meanwhile release is "busy" but has nothing to do
I get the opposite vibes tho, this city feels kinda dull, artificial, plastic and empty. The current Jinzhou has more 'life' in it.
Empty like your head yeah?
@@twitzmixx8374 More life but less "enraging"
The mood is a little more "forced" compared to this one
@@ComplexAce Enraging? That's not even it. And I get where y'all are coming.
This Jinzhou's is literally similar to PGR vibes, except it looks unpolished and devoid of proper elements. I love post apocalyptic themes more than anything too and I would rather have this(obviously a polished and better version of it) if I had a choice, but don't pretend as if this is better than the current Jinzhou.
I feel like my brain is polluted by beta. I miss not only the original prologue, but also some names and this song was so good! 💕
Bruv, I feel the same way, CBT1 was peak of aesthetic-wise of this game. They erased so much cool and next-gen-feels stuff, and visuals is pretty broken right now: e.g. sword animations on Sanhua, lack of red-sword skin of Danjin (also there's no red orb on her hand showing ready for hold attack), and the list goes on, and on... It's sad that Tencent just tell 'em to erase all cool stuff just to be more associated with Genshin and their fanbase. Because of that WuWa wont succeed hard, they didn't wanted to be unique game and with THAT power be more closer to beat Genshin, they choose to be just better Tower of Fantasy...
Same for me, CBT1 had a strong art-style & way more open world locations, now it looks like bleached genshin & many locations straight up deleted.
Meanwhile me trying to run parkour with Yelan in Genshin: "Damn a rock!"
Well that's gonna be fixed in the next update
can confirm, all alternative sprints are getting fixed in 3.0
Ayaka too lol
Lol,it got fixed.... They fixed or remade the entire sprint completely otherwise sumeru with all those trees and stones would be hell
We can expect a lot of Genshin comparisons like what happened to Tower of Fantasy. Anyway, the graphics, location's design and character movement animations are amazing and clean. One thing Genshin absolutely owns ToF in is the polish and smoothness of the animations since ToF's movement feels quite stiff and "cheaper". This video shows polished smooth animations, which is a great sign of the game for when more is released in the future. Of course we can't jump the boat and dub this game a "Genshin/ToF killer" since this is still very early footage. I'm definitely excited and looking forward to playing this. 😁
I’d just ignore the comparisons. I don’t care to hear how a game compares to Genshin. This game looks smooth af. Pink haired girl has tig ol biddies. Life is good.
Some actually compare tower fantasy to GI
The movement is actually from nier automata which both games copy.
@@BB-gj3gt Ngl NieR comparisons sound way more interesting, and I can see it in ToF with the midair dash and weapon switching.
@@DrSwazz Genshin they censored all the threads about comparing Genshin movement and attacks with Nier. There was a huge thread about it when the game started in the Mihoyo forums. Probably if you search you can find a comparison between the two games movement on youtube or something.
Idk why but the sound of the character running on the ground is so satisfying
It’s really interesting to see people return to this video now that the game has released!
Majority of those agreeing that Wuthering Waves has lost its vision for the sake of pleasing a larger audience.
I know for a fact, a lot of the changes were made to appeal to Genshin Impact players. The complaints about the world being dull, lifeless and unsaturated in cb1/2 forced Kuro to pull a 180 on their design choices by going for more of a fantasy-like world.
At least, when compared to the tech test, I really do believe this game was supposed to be an entirely Sci-Fi post-op dystopia.
It has kept those elements somewhat but something honestly does feel off about the game.
It’s really unfortunate that Vanguard wasn’t able to create the game’s OST either. I feel as if there are gaps with the music being repetitive in a lot of areas.
This is a really long thread but I just want to clarify, I’ve been around since the earliest stage of development, seeing it grow over the years makes me really happy for KURO. I’m positive they’ll make better changes in the future though, just as they did with beta PGR. All we can do now is hope the design team listens less to mindless feedback and create the world they intended to in the first place, because the real players know what a KURO game looks like.
you gotta give them props. you know how they care and listen to their playerbase, even during pgr days, they tend to listen. Tho I wonder how different would it be if they continue with this. it looks dystopian
I also look its current look, but I don't mind seeing this in the future as an additional content
@@Bryanzilla Absolutely! They really are a great company for that. I think looking back, I was just reminiscing about the early days of Wuwa but it’s a decision they made for the best
What!? We could’ve had THIS!? I just made a video talking about the world of Wuwa. Wish I saw this before
Such a great looking open world. Finally no disney vibes and rainbows. Amazing music. Top combat system developed for pgr.
If it is also well optimized for phones, it will become the greatest game of this genre released for me.
Current WuWa is much better and looks more polished. But man, I prefer that old Terminal UI and Grapple system more.
it will be even cooler if each character have their own vault & wall jump animation
That could be the case, each character had their own animation for just about everything in PGR tho that game wasn't open world
@@Hhhh22222-w It is the same case for Honkai but open world game would make it harder
That's probably a bit too ambitious, I must say
Although that be asking too much hope atleast different model have different animation.
3:41 damn the sound and opening menu and the changing time was so much better here. rn it looks so bad in this current released today the time change is so ugly rn 💀
Omg that looked so fucking cool. Whot he fuck scrapped this.
it was really cool
Yeah I don't get why the company scrapped cool ideas, the game ended up being good, but the menu UI and time changer were better before, now the new stamina and health bar are way better than the old ones
Wow the traversal system is really cool
some animation looks better than the final release, like step effect when you running on the wall. and the animation/effect while you walk/running and you change the direction (joystick) to left or right, it looks so good
Post apocalyptic setting
🤡: Why the color so dead and gray?
*/A gatcha put a vibrant color
🤡: LOOK THEY COPIED JENSHIN IMPACT
They should copy that Zelda clone if they want to appeal to more people.
@@Lewa500 you really said it lol 😂😂
new genchin fanboi is insecured af,as an old mihoyo's vet since ggz days,i can only laugh at those clowns
YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING 😡😡🤬🤬🔥🔥 THEY COPY, COFFEE, CAPPUCCINO, LATTE, MOCHA, EXPRESSO. WX#@&£$¥€®©
It's okay keep the genshin community as far away as possible
I love the color pallete. The colorful style from other games of this genre is good, but it's nice to see something different.
This music is absolutely to die for, almost neotokyo soundtrack vibes
i appreciate someone in the comments section mentioned neotokyo, this game really gives the same vibes and i must say in a better way..
Exactly what I thought!!
the animation by far is the best in this vid
insanely smooth
no lags, stutter, or sliding, its perfect
the bgm, characters, the world, and gameplay just makes the perfect game for me and for many of us.
that clock is literally more advanced than what we have what?? this UI is amazing why remove...
this game looks like everything i’ve always wanted. i don’t mind waiting more time for the release if that means they will polish it to perfection
The sound when the character starts wall walking and time skipping are satisfying to hear
KURO GAMES WENT HAM ON THIS ONE, THE GAME LOOKS SO GOOD AND I WILL SERIOUSLY WAIT FOR THIS
The future tech, the UI, and the pristine city are quite pleasing to the eye. Hoping the story and characters are equally as captivating.
idk why but i really like the building design, look so aesthetic for some reason
I love the white illumination, like a cloudy and gray sky, perfect to take a breath, idk why was changed to the generic blue and dark blue sky
これはすごく楽しみになってきたぞ！ぜひ日本に来てください！！
Damn, coming late but i was checking on this game traversal, and it looks so good ! The fact that you can start a wallrun from a climbing position opens up so much possibilities for exploration ! With a system like that, i'm even kind of hoping for some dungeons with traps and all...
yk I’m always very picky when it comes to rpgs and open worlds in general. I usually don’t like how the characters feel separated from the world sort of. Now finally the characters feel like they have weight and each object has a distinct shape that we can interact with!! Now I am certain I will love this game.
I like this old UI more than the current one. It looks unique
unique but bad
@@rexxel8867 how?
I like it too
Unique isn't always good.
yeah it looked much better, seems like Kuro kicked their only UI designer and let a random guy make a new UI.
i hope they will change it or at least give us an option to switch from that ugly font
The movement fluid when she jump off obstacles look interesting!
the release of this is like that release of the anime you've read as a manga, I cannot WAIT
Yeahhhh after watching and comparing this video to the current Jinzou I can confidently say that listening to feedback isn’t always a good thing lol. So many things and ideas seemed so much better than what we got in the full release. Imagine if they polished and kept cooking with this one instead of revamping it to the current one we have now….
* casually runs up a wall * I wasn't expecting that kind of parkour
I miss the old wuwa, it was so good already, it just needs more optimization, better animation and graphic quality
the concerto effects were the best
I like the bgm. The building style is very unique, it reminds me of Huizhou/Suzhou style houses. Overall looking more to this game.
I hope they can show us more style of traditional chinese houses/courtyard inspired, preferably like Siheyuan or the buildings in the north (Beijing, Luoyang .. )
suzhou m.th-cam.com/video/Yxs8I5mjXNQ/w-d-xo.html
好像杭州灵隐寺附近的商城
the death stranding vibes used to be strong, shame they tone it down
All the goddamn complaining about the dull look of the game from all the stupid bots caused Kuro to switch up this beautiful design. I wish sometimes Kuro would take a page out of Hoyoverse's book and not listen to us
Also, I am glad that the same ppl that complained dont play PGR because I would lose my shit if they made Kuro change up the look and feel of that game that would for sure cause a riot online and make ppl threaten Kuro Games devs
Wow, I need this in my life! Can’t wait to play.
With this kind of movement and jumping animation, wall running, that wire thingy and how slow gliding seems. In the future, they'll probably add some some sort of parkour/free running challenge across some of the geometrically complex area and I am all for it.
I wish they implement pvp but instead of fighting eachother, its a tag instead.
@@saaataaaaaannnddaaggiii3317 actually that seems fun. I wont mind that lmao.
TLDR; Wuthering Waves is swift, smooth, and the movement seems far more fleshed out than that of Genshin, which I played for a LONG while. I love movement, and WW just has more of it, while GI tacks on half assed features to make it seem more appealing.
I’ve been playing GI for a long time (since launch day) and have been wanting to switch over to another game for a long time after I quit. I have to say, Wuthering Waves looks FAR more promising than what Genshin turned out to be. Movement looks very smooth and polished, Genshin in comparison looks and feels far more awkward. I mean for starters WW has a faster version of most movement options, from climbing to mantling
To begin, I have always wanted more vertical mobility in GI. Something like a universal high jump that needs to be charged with time and stamina, but using it opens up so many combat options like repositioning, plunging attacks on characters normally not using that, or traversal. The glider in Gi is stiff and archaic, like out of OG God of War and the icarus wings, except you can’t even turn well. Similar to Kazuha, there’s an ability that gives a bit of upwards thrust, which makes the glider more usable in normal gameplay because making a mechanic easy to use, and better interconnected with combat and traversal enriches the overall experience. That’s why Kazuha in GI is so valuable to me. Fuck the dps numbers, I wanna actually use my glider to speed up my gameplay with wind jumps.
There’s also a quick mantle, genshin has a slow ass climbing mechanic that is simply just a slog to use and makes me feel like I’m climbing in ghost of tsushima, except unlike GI characters Jin is a normal human and the game uses the slow climbing to improve the feel of the game (because stealth and slow movement is a playstyle in there) while GI is just frustrating and annoying. Here, it’s clean as fuck and integrated well, there’s a sense of consistent momentum compared to how genshin feels like it’s stop and go traffic, hell there’s still that momentum glitch where you can un-deploy the wind glider to stop and redeploy to get a moment of the remaining wind tunnel speed.
ALSO THE VERTICAL WALLRUN, I wish more games had something like this, a long time ago a played a game that had a similar movement mechanic and it made the experience a lot more enjoyable because vertical spaces were more accessible for combat and escape routes and didn’t actively make me hate them like GI climbing. Smart move imo. There’s of course the horizontal wallruns but Titanfall already explains why that’s so good
Then there’s the grapple. Ghost of Tsushima, Titanfall 2 ,(technically for Nero) Devil May Cry, and of course spiderman. You can’t go wrong with a grappling hook.
Overall, very hyped for wuthering waves, and I can play day one to try it out without wasting money like a preorder game. Extremely promising from the other showcases and I hope this gives me another dose of good character action gameplay
That's a very well-articulated comment for sure
@@boboverlord1 nah it's just that I have that much pent up hatred for genshin at this point that it's spilling out. So glad I quit.
remember this is not even beta test yet and it's already this stunning
I prefer this city layout than the current one, the current one felt a bit underwhelming
Also i need that hanging mechanism at 6:28
I hope they will add more to the city cuz it feels like you are walking on lockdown zone. Birds on the ground, leaves falling down, and some sorts of environment effects will do.. I know those are little details but this huge city is so scary without those.
I hope this is MMO.
Nope it's not an MMO. Only multiplayer features.
@@boboverlord1 daym. Upto standard 4 players then?
@@boboverlord1 it's not an mmo, it's single player RPG with mmo elements
This multiverse of a wuwa might be the best version it's well optimized
Seems that Wuthering Waves is unique. It has their own identity.
Not that much anymore
Glory. To Mankind...
This city's architecture seems to be inspired by the traditional Hui (徽) style -- a rich region along the Yangtze River in east China.
I like the clean UI, better then most games in this style.
Two weeks since you uploaded this. Im watching it again. Need this!
Bring this city back in the game somehow
I feel the same way. I hope eventually we get some large cities like this. Jinzhou is big, but all it's sections are layered. I've love a more urban sprawl like this.
We've only been to Jinzhou so far and haven't seen any other nations yet
man i really lovin the death stranding vibe
man... this absolutely stunning. not even seems like another "genshin like" game although the graphics are similar, the gameplay is fire!!
hope to see more content soon!
This looks absolute insane! Looking forward to playing your game! Wishing you great success!
This music reminds me a stage from Diddy's Kong Quest. Nostalgia and beauty.
Main reason I play some game is their ost, and this one has pass the bar. Definitely will play this
I really like the city.... but somehow it feels so dead because it's so empty. Hopefully they will add more NPCs and make them look more alive
This is like pre pre beta so there's alot of time to improve
Yeah definitely looking forward to seeing how it progresses
Maybe that’s the vibe they are going for? Depress. Personally it looks a tad bit boring to explore but big ig
It's like a battle royale map.
Wouldn't fit the vibe of a post apocalyptic world, maybe if it was some sort of safe haven yeah.
Personally would like to see more depressing tones in game since that is far more interesting than some cookie cutter bland story.
Why do I feel like so many things looked better here than they do live?
I mean the menu screen, some parkour moves look so much smoother, playable character feels more alive somehow and so on
(I'm guessing mobile game restrictions but still)
THEY ROBBED US OF THOSE INFERFACE ICONS
Movements look great but the city seems lifeless to me, maybe because it's pre alpha
Yeah they just add enemy and boss to test the combat and free roaming. Hope the city will feel alive in the future
@@yotadinz270 can't really say its "alive" when the theme of this game is post apocalyptic or almost apocalypse event. Plus Kuro Games arent exactly the best at making something feels alive. All I can see is hope and despair on their game theme.
I get what you mean but idk man making the city alive might limit most mobile nowadays.
it kinda feels like the environment of the game ''prototype'' to me. atleast for now
yeah NPC doesn't talk and do stuff, need some vehicle flying more sound, and chattering, hopefully the beta add those.
Could be because of there being too many hard angles in the design and the main colour scheme being just grey and black with yellow lights. Kinda looks more like a concrete jungle or photoshopped new condominium showcase; it could do with some more environment details to break up the monotony.
Hope we have the option to chang ui style, it be cool if each nation has there own unique ui
Lookin good Kuro games, keep it up. Getting a whole set up just for this game.
Somethings I like about this and some things I prefer more in the current version.
Rover looks way better now in the current version.
I like the UI for the main menu in this older version, it looks a lot more sci fi, the clock is way better.
I don’t know if I like this Jinjou or current Jinjou but I would like a city that takes more inspiration from this older version. Maybe the Black Shores or something could look more like this idk but I like this older version design as well as the current version.
I think I like this ambient music more than the current version’s ambient music
I like that the grapple is more like a swing in this older version but I don’t know how that would play out during combat.
I kind of like this glider more. Again, I like the more science to look of the glider, even though I’m usually more of a fantasy enjoyer. It’d be nice to have more choices to switch up gliders and switch up the Ui and stuff.
Overall, I think Kuro should revisit some of these design choices cause this is pretty good.
Now this looks very fun, love the movements and the atmosphere! Can't wait to try it
All the crazy quirks with ToF and Wuthering Waves in order to be more unique than Genshin Impact. Not hating but I just find it funny.
I am playing ToF and although I really like the boss raids with other players, crew interactions (guild), the story-telling and the overworld is just too bland. They should have made it memorable coz first impressions are always important.
Genshin on the other hand provided us with very good story telling, pleasant to the eyes overworld, and reminscing BGM that made it nostalgic when we listen to it. Even when Dvalin flew over the traveler and then meeting Venti in the woods holding Dvalin was a powerful scene that makes players remember it.
I hope the devs of Wuthering Waves won't just solely focus on the quirks and battle aspects of their game. They should put heart and emotions on main stories/quests as well.
I partly agree with you, but i'm utterly dissappointed with Genshin storytelling. I remember how it all started and there were so many crazy theories but at the end there's really nothing interesting story-wise unless you read descriptions of items. Story doesn't develop. And this is something I really don't like. I'm more of a "watcher", I don't go deep into items and stuff, I just follow the story game tells me and I can't even explain how dissappointed I was going through Inazuma. I don't get why the focus was shifted from interesting and somewhat creepy story to a completely childish fanbase things. I quit Genshin after Inazuma because I couldn’t bear the stupidity anymore. Anyone who at least heard about military would laugh at the war happening there. I even had a thought that team working on plot was fired.
It's been stuck in my head for a while, I did like the game itself.
Really beautiful and the soundtrack is so mesmerizing! ❤️ The gameplay also looks great! Genshin clunky climbing ain't got nothing on this! I love how you can swing on your rope anywhere you want!
