Action-Adventure Platformer The Forbidden Arts Will Set the Switch Alight Next Year

Looks pretty rough right now. Hopefully it gets polished quite a bit because it has potential.

Welp... no thanks.

@justin233 Yeah I agree it needs a bit more work.

I agree it does look rough but then it's a year away from release. Plenty of time to give it some polish. Imagine what MP4 looks like right now, that's another 2019 title.

Well.. I like the vibe this game is going for. But honestly, those textures are bad and bland.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE Hopefully not in the same way BOTW was a 2015 title 😄

I know it's very early, but this holds zero interest for me.

Looks a tad generic and floaty.

For now it just looks ok.

It's a pretty great start and I like where it's going but as it is now, I wouldn't pay money for it. If this is just 10% of what it could eventually turn into though, I'm all ears.

Ouch. If they’re planning it to change/improve the game dramatically, then I question their decision to release such a poor video. The character groan at every jump was annoying within five seconds!

3D exploration, 2D "battle" sections... stuff we've seen in some capacity before in gaming. It's got potential, like so many games before it and like it, but it will need to impress more than that for me. I'll keep an eye out for it later to see how it develops.

Pass...

Looks too generic for my tastes.

I think it looks very promising. Reminds me of the Goemon 2 n64 game

Another platformer and another flop

I’m surprised by all the negative comments. I think this looks pretty cool, especially for a Nindy game.

Shows a lot of promise.

Concidering this is getting early access on Steam, I predict this game is going to be development hell for a long time. Simply because people will want it to run at 4k 60fps with tons of extra stuff added.

Oh wow, that looks bad. It's like they got hold of a game engine and a load of pre-made assets and just tried to create a game using them. It looks bad.

I know sony and ms are big on announcing games years in advance but Nintendo has spoiled me with their short list announcements. I can’t be bothered by something 12 or more months away.

@Ryu_Niiyama - This is probably why there has been great success on the system even outside Nintendo's personal market.

I will probably watch this, though, since watching a game evolve is somewhat fascinating. Has decent concepts too.

@SLIGEACH_EIRE You said the same thing about Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Unless you have inside knowledge of MP4, it's rather easy to dismiss you right here.

On topic: Looks pretty bad right now but considering this game is more than a year away, it definitely had potential.

I don't think it looks too bad. Another year of development and this could be a great looking game.

Geeze. Tough crowd.

Game reminds of World of Warcraft, in that it looks like a 14 year old game. Gameplay itself doesn't look all that enjoyable either from those little tidbits. Given that game has 1-2 years to release there's a chance that stuff gets cleared up, but I'd be surprised.

Looks pretty basic right now, but then again, this is probably a very early build.

Looks good for a Gamecube title.

Looks decent so far.
