Trailer meh, demo amazing.

This game is gonna have a rough time, I appreciate that they showed live gameplay, but man they focused on the wrong stuff.

Not the stuff to end the show on, imo.

I would lean the other way, trailer ok to good, demo focused way too much on "look how many zombies we have here!!"

Definitely needs some kinks to work out, but otherwise, I thought the presentation was decent

The game is trash except for "look how many zombies" though.

And those massive amounts of zombies were great! Only reason I'm even remotely interested in the game.

Is it? Don't you think it's a bit early to say that? :p

I mean it's not the most unique setting in the world but I do see potential here.

Nope not too early.

Looked like a straight to DVD the last of us knock off.

Looks like a bad The Last of Us with World War Z type piles of zombies.  

Actually the thing that really bugs me about the game, is the AI does some weird things in the video.
Like he'll run in between 2 zombies, and it looks like they kind of disappear going away from him.  And another segment where a zombie or 2 seems to just stop right in front of them.

If they did some weird thing like backing off the AI for the demo, that's fine with me; but I hope it's not weird like that in the actual game.  

I think it has potential, but I just don't see what the story really is yet.  Are we just surviving?  If yes, cool.  That doesn't seem to be the case though, so I want to learn more before I really get interested.  

Seems very The Last of Us inspired in a lot of ways.

Definitely for the demo.

These things are super faked but that player had a hard time hiding it.

That's what I thought.

That's what I thought.

Once sony uploads the demo, we should see what it's supposed to look like. Usually they don't upload the same playthroughs shown in the show.

Meh, I think the story won't be something Oscarworthy but decent enough.

Gameplay has to make up for the rest and I do see potential there, but it definitely wasn't shown off well. This is for sure not going to get the same reaction as Horizon did last year.

The game could end up good, but that trailer just screamed mediocrity.


I really don't see why people think the demo was bad. Maybe it's a combo of demo jankiness and being the "one last thing" to a short show?

It seems this wasn't supposed to close the show.

Gameplay demo was uploaded to yt at the same time the trailer was shown, but has since been removed.
