More here under "Screenshot": http://www.kufii.com/ENG/ They are all insane. Essentially, what the Total War games should have looked like if they had better art direction and higher polygon count everything. It looks like the best game ever. And it probably would be if it blended pure single-hero action free-roaming with the occasional large-scale battle now and then, to make you feel like Guts in the Berserk anime episodes. There is some indication that this might be the case from some of the screenshots (the town/party ones), but I doubt it. Still sounds like a hell of a ride however it is.

And by the way, there's no fucking way the PS3 can handle this, so I am glad they made the PC the lead platform.

The development of this game has been pretty fucked up. Originally it looked like a totally insane beefed up version of the previous games (and obviously totally destroying shit like Dynasty Warriors), see this vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0ODM-HxwVk

Then it disappeared for a few years and came back completely redesigned and focusing more on being an MMO game. The action and animations were drastically toned down, see this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqkrkcGJAPM

Recent videos show the intensity of the action being a little bit closer to the original game design at least: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFuLLArtkPg

Yeah, it's been in development since at least 2008. It's a wonder the company is still afloat at all.

Such great character models. It makes the Total War games look rubbish (not that they needed the comparison with this to look rubbish -- they've always looked rubbish). Definitely getting into uncanny valley problems here though, when you have these huge groups of identical-looking soldiers. They need to come up with some kind of trick that randomizes parts of their appearance, so it can look like Braveheart or something instead of a clone army in a fantasy or historical setting.
