Deep Down

By Capcom! At least that's what I read. @-@

Looks gorgeous but I'm hoping this is secretly Dragon's Dogma 2 and that this is merely a tech demo. Or that Dragon's Dogma is getting a spiritual successor and this will be it. Though this is a bit too gritty and realistic to be a Dragon's Dogma game. Either way, dragons!

Looks like it won't be the sequel to Dragon's Dogma. I wonder if this new engine of theirs will be practical for something like Dragon's Dogma though. I mean, if Deep Down consistently looks this good...it's not likely to be an open world game. Or at least the world won't be huge.

 

Bump.

Deep Down was easily the best looking game in the PS4 reveal and it's led to a lot of people thinking that it was just CGI with controls planted on to look like a real-time demo of the game. Apparently, that's not the case. The game will pretty much look just like what we saw in the trailer. Though since we don't know if it's an open world game...this could possibly just be the best-looking dungeon crawling corridor style RPG to date rather than the best-looking open world game around.

 

Apparently it's an online game. As for how much "online"...well, we don't know. Here's a new trailer and some really cool stuff from Capcom's new Phanta Rhei engine, which is being used in this game:

Spoilers, the fire effects will be really good.

 

WHY AREN'T YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT HOW SEXY THOSE FIRE EFFECTS ARE? WHY?

Seriously though, we don't know if this will be an MMO. It's an online dungeon crawler game. It's probably going to be a bit like Dark Souls(haven't played it but I know it has an online component). Probably people can jump in and out of the game or influence it...or act as teammates. Or maybe it'll employ a system like Capcom's own Dragon's Dogma where you make an ally(Pawn) and your ally would be available for hire for other players to use. Of course, nothing much will be confirmed until TGS though. I doubt this is an MMO. I haven't read that it will be.
