WOW!!! (and I don't mean that in a sarcastic tone).

Insane how far we've come/are getting in graphical technology. The details on that video are unreal.

Indeed! I went into it thinking, "Whatever" and came away thinking, "WOW!"

I don't play a lot of console games but that somewhat interesting. It looks like its more action game and less RPG/character development.

I think it will be similar to Bloodborne but with more story. You have to be very aware of your build for bosses or evolving your fighting mechanics, but likely will incorporate some good Asian history type lore with it. This game has been in dev for a minute and was supposed to be a kind of foundational type game for displaying graphics/new mechanics initially but don't know anymore, etc.

I'm playing Surge 2 right now which is kind of a souls knock off with mechs, and that's kind of the setup in that game where stamina reigns supreme for dodging/attacking very similar to Bloodborne/souls. So think the build will be very imp but little else in terms of rpg elements.

Ok cool, thought it was like stealth/action game like Tenchu for PlayStation which wouldn't be a bad thing.

There are stealth elements and beleive Sekiro Shadows Die Twice is the spiritual predeccesor type thing and that game deftly has stealth incorp. as well. Now that I think about it, Bloodborne had much more stealth involved than I orig. thought about. But every move is calculated or you're dead so it is in that sense.

I don't have the patience for stealth games anymore. I played a Tom Clancy game awhile back where you had to sneak through this whole level and be stealth. I couldn't take it anymore "CHARGE!" Blam! Blam! Blam! Came out guns firing. MISSION FAILED. Well, damn. haha

Sounds like Splinter Cell lol, those first 3 games were awesome. When the first one came out on Xbox the graphics were really revolutionary.

It very well could've been!! That is fun to do, look back, and remember when games blew you away. I remember when Halo was graphically amazing! Also, I went back and re-visited the first Forza Horizon (awesome game) and laughed at how those graphics used to blow me away. Don't get me wrong, they're still....neat, but nothing like we are seeing today.

you should play Call of Duty campaigns then, they're all action packed.

Oh I'm definitely on board with Call of Duty. Been playing since the Modern Warfare 4 days. There have been some good, some bad, some really bad, and some excellent in between all those years but I seem to keep playing them all. haha

The Tenchu video game series was the first thing that came to my mind here:
