Everything falls apart so easily that it almost looks boring to me. That and the fact that things never bend -- they only break apart -- really kills the feeling of realistic destruction. I guess it's just not for me.

Thank you for the carefully hidden ICP reference in the title. 
 
'Fucking magnets, how do they work?' is the parody, for those who are slow in the head.

It's cool how almost everything is destructible, but it's all made to look so fragile.

Looks a little boring. Sure it has destruction, but this will likely get old in time as I even got tired of the destruction while watching the QL.

I liked Guerrilla, but haven't been too excited about this, mainly cause I liked Guerrilla's lack of aliens and monsters and stuff. However, that magnet gun is BOSS.

The fact that they didn't do it open world like guerrilla makes my interest for this plummet terribly.....
 
There was so much they could have improved on that formula to make it even better.

I was just mentioned this game in the thread from crusader8463 "best games no one is talking about".  This one seemed to fall off the general radar but it always looked super cool to me.  Now it looks even better.

That looks great, though I was expecting a FPS from the early screenshots they shown some time ago.

I enjoyed Red Faction: Guerrilla though the missions were mad repetitive. Seemed like I was doing the same 5 missions over and over and over again. I'm looking forward to this game now.

Everything sure falls down but all the structures resemble more card houses than real buildings.

loved the multiplayer in RF:G, I think the change of camera location might change the feel of the multi though.

I enjoyed Guerilla but I never really thought about the new one. After watching this Quick Look, I'm actually impressed. If the single-player isn't as hard/repetitive then I am sold.

Heh. This quick look could've been two minutes long, and still enough to convince many people to buy the game.

Looks like an expansion, not an entirely new game. That's what I thought at first anyway. Still didn't play the previous one (hated the demo) and probably still won't.

All I wanted was the destruction from Guerrilla. All I got was the destruction from Guerrilla.

It seems they knew exactly what people enjoyed about the last game and made this whole game about it. The magnet gun seems like it might be the weapon you turn to the most.
