I understand why their not reviewing it, but slightly dissapointed too, considering the only reviews of games I read are from this site. But yo, it's all cool, if that's the way it has to be.

" @Doctorchimp: That's not what I said. I see you cannot understand even written English, sorry for you. "

The part you posted said that as you picked things up the narrator puts his own spin on the vocabulary.  You then posted a cheeky FYI that not everyone could understand it, like that matters. "  

looks really neat 
but I kinda stopped having fun with these type of game for a while
they always seem to be only fun for an hour or 2

" @Doctorchimp: in 2005, and the trend since then is to add text and remove sound in games, right? 
 
Think how your life would be earning 1$/h, or 1000$/h. In the differences is the relevance of money. Money is just a way to get time, and time in life, the time you are alive, and what you can do with it (quite determined by the amount of money you have) indeed is everything. Someone doesn't really know what's important, and of us both, I think it is not me. "

You need to stop and look at games as something that the creators can have control over. So what if it alienates other people? That's the game they want to make.  

  Its nice to see that there are still people who are willing and able to innovate and take a chance in the business.  I'm starting to worry as more and more of the big devs seem to be sticking to established franchises after big money flops.

This looks sorta like an isometric Zelda, but obviously with more combat.  I also get a Nathan Fillion narrating the opening to Firefly from this.  Not just the voice, but the language as well.  The skill aspect of the combat looks cool, though not so deep, such as, say Bayonette, as to be too time consuming or frustrating. 

Sounds a bit like Diablo meets Dark Cloud with some interesting tone direction. Any word on platform(s) yet? The vid shows PS3 buttons at least.

This game is an aesthetic delight.  Gameplay looks solid too.  Can't wait to hear more about it.

That narration feature is pretty damn cool.

Dark Cloud with a detective fiction narrator?  Yes, a thousand times, yes.

" Wait really? Greg kasavin has another job? Does he just have trouble dedicating himself to his work or something? Also Bastion looks super cool "

pretty classy that you dudes are deciding against a review... ive seen ign do features like this with wii games and the like and when the game comes out they vastly overrate it and get a thanks in the credits and such.... it always seemed insanely shaddy

The narration thing is pretty cool, but not really a big deal. The game just seems like a plane old isometric action RPG which is just an advanced beat em up mixed with some Diablo. This game seems solid, but there isnt anything I am getting excited for, nothing different about it that I can really hang my hat on. I guess it doesnt help that I kinda hate games like Diablo, but even so, just doesnt seem too special to me.

This is going straight to my Wishlist.

Looks interesting.

when you start stabbing things, the narrator must really go uh uh uh uh uh.

 "we're opting to not review Bastion when it's released. I suspect that, by the time it's finished, we'll all be a little too close to it to render an untainted verdict, so it's best to just state that now, so everyone's clear"
 
That's fair, but at least an announcement that it's been reviewed by sites (don't have to list the scores) would be welcomed :D
 

this is just like the black powder red earth, feature you guys did , i look forward to this  

Looks wicked.

"we're opting to not review Bastion when it's released" 
 
its this kind of integrity I appreciate. The feature also sounds really cool, go Giantbomb!

" The narration kind of reminds me of a really awesome DM from a pen & paper game, which is very cool. The game also looks fantastic. "

I was hoping Deathspank would be good, but the combat was so damn boring. This looks like it could scratch my rpg itch.

er looks alright.

The gameplay seems alright, the style of it all seems great on the other hand.

Narrator sounds like Whiskey Nerd.

I love the narration. The idea of it narrating what you're doing on the fly as the game goes along is really cool and the narrator's voice is great. 
 
 Gameplay looks fairly solid, though I hope there is enough enemy and weapon variety that keeps the fighting from feeling tedious.  
 
I really like the look of the game. From the Kid, to the enemies, and the weapons shown in the video it looks really neat. 
 
I'm really interested in how you guys are going to be covering the game. I don't think I've seen it done before and I think it will be great. I'll gladly trade a review for in depth coverage. This game looks awesome and I'm going to eagerly be watching for information on it. 

Looks really good.

I keep expecting the voiceover to say "Wear sunscreen".

I love the narration, though it sounds a bit like Jimmy’s voice.

The narration is ugly and terrible. I was so tired of listening to it by even just the middle of the video. Game itself looks okay.

Won't this narration get incredibly repetitive and obnoxious after a while?
 
 "kid finds an alloy that will strengthen his hammer"
 "kid finds an alloy that will strengthen his hammer"
 "kid finds an alloy that will strengthen his hammer"
 "kid finds an alloy that will strengthen his hammer"
 
SHUT UP ARRRHHHH!!!!
 
Also, what in gods name is up with the guitar music, grizzled old man narrator, and bright, colorful anime artwork. Those things don't seem to mesh well at all in the vid. It's like it's a bunch of "creative" stuff thrown together with absolutely no overarching design.

I am so going to buy this when it comes out! Steam integration please Greg!
Thank you <3

Looks beautiful.  
 
The narration concept is fascinating.

i'm rather surprised how irritated some already are with the 'active narration'. i've never heard anything like it; the perspective, tone and style of the voice feel unique and different. 
 
people have already mentioned the potential for the narration to wear very thin if the same comments were said over and over again in quick succession. i completely agree, and i'm sure the developers do too, which is why i'm confident such issues have been/are being addressed. 
 
i am really enjoying the footage and coverage i have seen so far.

I had already decided that this game looks innovative enough for me to buy it but then Jeff goes saying that Greg Kasavin is going to work on it... I don't think I could be more hyped for this project.

This game is definately capturing my heart.

Knowing that this is a Greg K joint is all I need to be excited for it.

I think the narration is a little too present in the game, it might get annoying after a while, always having to hear what you're doing.
Still, I'm pumped :)

This is amazing news. Also, some of you guys may not realize that Greg Kasavin currently maintains a blog, of which the latest entry concerns--among other things--his involvement with this game. I encourage all of you to check it out here.
