Dark Teaser Trailer

Dark Teaser Trailer

Shedding some more light in the dark

Written by Nose 0ver Tail on 25 May 12 at 15:19 | Credit to Kobius360

Slowly, but steadily, more information is becoming available for Realmforge Studios' new vampire stealth-action game. Dark seems to be coming along at a time when the vampire genre is in full swing. It would be a welcome addition to the industry for a well-made vampire experience. In the following trailer, you can definitely sense the eeriness of the Dark.



DARK is a 3rd person stealth action game with RPG elements that lets you slip into the role of the ultimate killer... a vampire. Stalk your enemies from the shadows then use powerful vampire abilities to attack and silently dispatch them! The exciting story of DARK immerses you in a world full of blood and darkness in which the hunter can become the hunted at any time. As you unravel the mystery behind the global conglomerate that seems omnipresent and all-powerful, continually improve your character by developing powerful skills to aid you in remaining unobserved, or make quick process of those unfortunate to take too keen an interest in you.

Features:
• Stealth and action combine as players walk the world in darkness and silence, attacking their unsuspecting foes with supernatural fury
• Use powerful vampire abilities and hard-hitting melee attacks to defeat dangerous enemies -- turn into a puff of smoke and disappear, or close with your foes in an instant!
• Powerful and intelligently controlled AI enemies mix the fantastic with the real-world. Battle police and elite special forces along with ghouls and other vampires
• Castles, museums, skyscrapers, nightclubs and more are rendered in stunning 3D cel-shaded graphics, beckoning the player to explore -- but beware, powerful enemies hide everywhere
• RPG elements mix with a compelling story -- players will build up their skills through successful evasion and combat, while advancing the story through conversations with NPCs
Dark is set to release in early 2013. If you'd like to learn more about the game, I suggest you check out this article.

I couldn't help but put a smile on my face at the concept of this. I hope the game turns out nicely, as I'd love to play it!

I am going to call a flop right now, has anyone here even bothered to look at Realmforge's credentials? laugh

The trailer was created by a mediocre CGI specialized company and has done a decent job of impressing those who don't look past the gloss. The trailer is actually not even impressive. I'm sure that Realmforge will end up returning to their point and click/strategy based games after they learn the err of their ways with this one. Sorry to be such a pessimist, but I call them like I see them.

Ed. I had to point out this little excerpt as well: As you unravel the mystery behind the global conglomerate that seems omnipresent and all-powerful,

How many times have we seen this as a plot line in a modern day vampire story, (sarcasm) it's oozing with originality. TA, can we get a facepalm smiley already please!

Even if the game does flop, at least it might stimulate growth in a genre which hasn't really been touched on much in the gaming industry. The film industry was all over vampires for a while so I'm actually surprised it didn't hit gaming sooner.

being a pessimist i won't comment on as anyone who knows me would understand how hypocritcial of me that would be, but way to go on basically insulting and pigeon holing, anyone who is just trying to be positive about it and hoping for the best, as a mindless moron whos all 'look at the shiny shiny'

This looks like it could be really good. I'm a fan of vampires (not the twilight version) but more like Underworld or something. I really look forward to seeing more from this game. It's a genre that's not rarely touched upon.

You get to be the vampire not the soldiers
As much as i want this to succeed I sense failure in the wind
Like mindjack or Quantom Theory sized failure
maybe if they sell the game at 40$ or 50$?
PS where the hell is that stealthy ninja platforming game
Or Tenchu Z 2 (like that'll happen)
I want a good stealth game soon :(

You're not really calling it like you see it. You, as you said, are only being pessimistic. Which is fine. But using the credentials argument doesn't hold as much weight as we all like to think it does. Remember a little company called Rare? They were killing nearly every major genre. Platformers that rivaled Nintendo developed titles, Killer Instinct generated a decent following during the Mortal Kombat reign. Revolutionized the console FPS, etc... Then they went somewhere and made some game or something.

But I really don't think this is as generic as you are claiming it to be. Maybe I don't pay enough attention but I haven't played, or even read about anything that you claim this is biting. I mean if you speak in the most general terms with no specifics you can make anything sound like anything. There's is a guy in the armed forces, wears armor and uses guns, takes down a corrupt leader/organization.
If these Shimazu have a problem with that, they're welcome to a clobbering!
