MORE NEW gameplay footage of Omen of Sorrow
It honestly doesnāt look that great. The background is really cool, but the animations are very stiff. It feels more like MK4 than anything else.
Yeah, itās definitely stuff. Iām still seeing more KOF than MK4 but itās stiff animation. Vladislav III looks a bit out of place. With his ripped upper body he does look a bit MK4 ninja and not so much vampire. Further, he contrasts with the angel girl (canāt remember her name) who has some hanky move animations but is lovingly animated for things like her idol pose. Whereas he looks like a puppet from the old 60ās Thunderbolts.
Recognizing that criticism is easy, and animation is nothing Iāve ever done. I have a hard time deciding if this is an amazingly impressive amateur made fighting game or a pretty awful professionally made one. I still hope it works out for all involved and produces something fun.
A (small) interview with AOne Games on the making/behind-the-scenes look of Omen of Sorrow
From that interview, I noticed something from one of the stages:
In the broader strokes (color, basic shapes) it looks awfully similar to this:
ā¦huh. Juri hair style huhā¦unfortunately just like juri it would look 100x better if it was down like in that amazing juri costume in sf5.
I do like the feathers though. It gives a bloodborne feel to the character and the blindfold is kinda cool too. Iām curious how the character will look in motion. Iām curious if that weird long neck would make the model look too weird
New official trailer this time with release date:
Nice trailer. The gameplay looks more and more like KOF to me, always with the caveat that I havenāt really played those games much.
Just as an aside, I wouldnāt call ā2018ā a release date.
I like the atmosphere and graphical style of this game. It doesnāt look nearly as stiff as it did in the beginning, which is nice. Still doesnāt seem like thereās a ton of characters, but maybe Iām mistaken? Either way, new fighting games are usually on my radar and this oneās no different. Hope it turns out well!
Any more characters in mind? Where there are creatures like Darkstalkersā
- Morrigan and Lilith
- Demitri
- Talbain
- Felicia
- Rikuo
- Victor
- Anakaris
- Bishamon
- Lord Raptor
- Sasquatch
- Donovan
- Hsien-Ko
- Huitzil
- B.B. Hood
- Q-Bee
- Jedah
Fairy Tale-based characters to join in?
Itās looking a lot better now, though I wish we would have seen some more gameplay instead of just a compilation of clips that didnāt even take two seconds, so we could get a better look at how smooth the gameplay and animations look.
Or rather in this case a release year?
A new for trailer for Omen of Sorrow -
Have anyone tried the omen of sorrow demo? It ends today
I just found it and downloaded itā¦didnt know it ends today though ā¦that sucks. I guess Ill try it for a second before it goes a way.
Ah damn, Iām not home before Wednesday, so wonāt be able to try it out.
Why do demos have a deadline these days? Canāt they just throw it up for people to try out until the game comes out, like they used to?
Well you arent missing muchā¦ its kind of janky. Only 2 characters available. Its def not as quality as KI, IJ, or SF
Itās made by an indie company though, right? So I wouldnāt expect for it to have as high a production value as any of those.
And indie company in South America, something hard to do in this lands and probably they put a lot of love.
I think it might be the first figthing game ever in this region (I guessed in Brazil a studio was working in a 2D fighting game, but donāt know what happened).
However game production here is very far from the ones in North America. Still I was told that game characters 3D models (like the ones in Injustice and SFV, among others) were done here! =O
In short, thereās outsourcing, but not full game production, thatās why this game did a very good job.
I would like to try it sometime, I want to play with the werewolf XD
