Sorry, I can’t help myself when it comes to alliteration. Anyways, here’s a quick trailer for the Watchmen: The End is Nigh game, showing off a bit of action and attacking for your nitpicking pleasure.
You can argue over how the game is going to be story-wise and whether you can even put the characters in this type of situation, but I’ll gladly accept them attempting to tell the Watchmen story in a medium like this. There’s a chance that they’ll be able to reveal a new part of the character’s mindset through this. Let’s just wait and see.
Now, gameplay-wise, nitpick away. The combat system looks slightly worrisome to me, because as you combo one enemy, the others just stand around like dolts, waiting to be raped in the face — this is a situation that’s always befuddled me. I wonder why they won’t just beat on me while I’m killing their friend. It’d certainly save their lives. Is it just me, or does this irritate anyone else from a logical standpoint within the story?
