"I like what I'm seeing here, for the most part, but I do think it's a little weird to summon a swarm of rats to single one out, strap an explosive to its back and then take possession of its body to guide into enemies. Especially when the exact same results can be achieved more elegantly by bending time as an enemy takes aim, then taking possession of them and moving them into the path of the attack.
Or, you know, just siccing the rats on them. That'd probably work too."
Except it wouldn't, because the rat, bomb, possession combo looks like it'll be a clean kill to multiple people instantly, the rat swarm only took out 2 guys and caused a big fucking commontion while it was doing so.
But the point is that these combo's are possible. They didn't create set-pieces, they just created the rules, breaking them in every way possible is the players job...
Couldn't be more keen for this game!

Killing is so creative and imaginative, it's a bona fide art form. Games based on killing are SO original and creative, they're transforming our culture into an age of Enlightenment.
yeah, and cocks.

@Jaguarnaut - Then I think you'd really like Dishonored. You can play through the whole game without killing anyone, even the bosses can be dealt with cleanly. But if I had any way of enforcing it, I'd totally bet 10 bucks straight up that you wouldn't do that.
Because like I reckon you're like many gamers: talk the big 'un online about 'creative' this and 'art form' that, but you won't buy a fucking thing without a big name behind it and you get right in line for a good old game about murdering with the rest of us.

Tin Man, you fail .
I only buy indie games and pirate the rest and don't give a fuck about shooting/killing games. I kind of grew out of that some years ago with Doom and Duke Nukem. The only big name game I have really enjoyed since GTA SA is Skyrim, and fuck me if I'd pay for that Steam forced update shite.
But not to worry, fail is frequent when you assume you know somebody.
Feel free to continue lining up for simulated murder, i assure you it is much tastier than the real thing. Just don't wonder why there are more and more "normal" people in the news going on killing sprees. No, for sure these games don't affect you , even if you're 16 and you play every night on drugs. And of course nobody does that, because we live in such a healthy society.
Glass of milk?

Reminds me of when you'd mind control cows and strap explosives to them and have the bovine wander past unsuspecting enemy defences in Red Alert.
Good times.

this is looking amazing, i love having freedoms like this in games its why i love hitman, and open world games. i can play how i like and im not limited to what i can come up with.
Wish more games had unrestrictive game design like this. Even if it is stupid or wastefull, giving the player the amount of freedom to do nearly anything they should be able to do just makes things better. Love the part where he catches the oil barrel he threw away.
@Twosixteen that would make sense considering that Harvey Smith, one of the lead designers was a level and creative designer for the Dark Project, as well as Deus Ex and System Shock.

Yes I am being deadly serious. The guy who killed all those people in Sweden was playing CoD to train himself. THAT douche canoe is named Anders Behring Breivik in case you missed it.
This game keeps looking better and better the more I see of it, though knowing me, I don't think I'll end up doing anything fancy since I'm well......not that good.
Also I think we should be honored that Jaguarnaut took time out of his busy schedule to tell us how wrong we are for liking a piece of violent fiction. As the Medic from Team Fortress 2 would say "Thank you......jerkoff."

These are all pretty entertaining, but I wonder if they will be economical to do once you're in the actual game? I don't know what kind of resources you have to manage with your powers, but I feel like once I play the full game, simpler solutions would be more effective.
Jeez, looks like a Fox News reporter is posting here...pay no heed folks, maybe he'll go away if we ignore him
Perhaps I am trolling you but I think a post on Destructoid containing the words "creative killing" is an excellent place to do that, as well as bring this up for discussion. If we're discussing violence against women in games, how about violence in games ?
If you are 16 and spend many hours every night getting stoned and playing some psycho shooter game, how does this affect your psychoogy?
When I did that with GTA SA , which isn't particularly psycho, I was a lot older than 16 and I can tell you that walking around the city and police felt very different for several weeks during this period.
Let's face it, every knows the ratings are just there to maintain a thin veneer of legitmiacy, all video games including adult -rated stuff are played widely by under-age people.
How much do we understand about the psychology of entrainment when playing 3D games, the de-sensitization to violence and psychopathic behaviour, the getting used to shove or shoot anything and anyone that stands in your way?
If you watch Breaking Bad , in the last episode there's a scene where dad and older son are sitting in the living room with the baby all watching Scarface, the shootout at the end. Both of the guys are having a great time and are totally oblivious to how fucked up this is.
Hell, if torture , psychopathy and murder has become what we enjoy watching and re-enacting the most in our life-like games and movies, what the fuck does that say about us and our culture ???

That guy did´nt kill anyone in sweden. Not one single person.
Shows how much you know..
He did murder alot of young people in norway though.
And he was a known psycho and a neo nazi. Videogaming had nothing to do with him killing all those poor kids.
Stop talking crap

I had a hard time deciding between Dishonored and Hitman Absolution. However, the more videos I watch for this game the more I'm convinced I made the right choice in picking Dishonored.
Also, putting people in the way of there own bullets was just awesome. I will be having a lot of fun with that particular ability.

@aronsky The good part is that you can pick whichever you want now and get the other one at half priced on a steam or amazon sale after christmas and play both! :D
God i love gaming.

Jaguarnaut, it sounds like you can't separate reality from fiction. Maybe you're better off not playing games like this, then.
just what the hell is this game about besides killing? Seems too much like bioshock, with all these powers you have at your disposal, but only really using 2 or 3 throughout the whole game. I like having different solutions to my objectives in games, but i want them to be viable. Is there a trade off between the swarm of rats versus possession? This video was too all over the place for me to tell.
Good Lord, Jaguarnaut actually thinks games cause violence.... ew... I love it when people take one small example of violence and use it to defend their ludicrous point. 0/10
