EA Play Anthem Trailer

It doesn't look like it's cooking. This looks like they are still making a list of groceries.

god I wish they would show us something interesting

I think the game they showed about yarn got more people hyped up in the crowd than Anthem's "trailers/gameplay" did.

The combat looked less interesting than ME:A.

I was more excited for Andromeda.

Feels like the sort of polite comment i'd reserve to break out if i ended up in an awkward conversation with a super nice anthem developer who asked me my opinion on the demo, rather than being brutally honest.

I won't say this cratered my interest, but between EA Play and reading and watching other things, my interest has definitely almost taken a nosedive.

Why should I get this other than jetpacks and graphics? Anyone? Compared to what else is already here and upcoming.

What's the storytelling? Is it really just going to be 1-2 hubs where we accept or deny quests, maybe ask a few optional quests or have super token 'consequences'?

Has anyone at Bioware asked "What's the point of this?", as it increasingly looks like they should? Especially if they're NOT doing lootboxes (in which case the answer would be "maximum money")?


Even if the story is amazing, it seems like it'll lack even the increasingly streamlined newer Bioware approach to choice and consequences, so I don't see the incentive for myself to get it before/at launch.

But besides that, it just seems boring. Pretty is not the same as interesting, that's for sure.

Made me think more of Transformers by Michael Bay.

Felt a little meh on the trailer itself but watching the footage after was intriguing, I’m curious on how the end game is going to work and ultimately I still think I need to see more, but it has my interest.

The FB3 still is no joke on the looks, game looks beautiful but I was expecting that 👍
