"green behind the ears" - I'm not sure that's a thing, but he's the writer so what do I know. I've heard wet behind the ears, though.

It's a phrase in German and I would assume also in French.

The artwork is quite nice and not without a charm.

You can't deny Ubisoft have really been pushing a good variety recently.

Yup. Comes out on the 29th.

I think this game looks great. Ubisoft is coming out swinging with games that I want to play this year. I'm really hoping that Child of Light is good. This being the first RPG that I can play on my PS4 almost makes me want to buy it before any reviews hit.

Ubisoft continues to make smart moves by giving their engine tech to smaller more experimental teams. Hope we see something similarly cool out of the Watch Dogs and The Division engines.

It is mixed metaphor. There is wet behind the ears and green as in greenhorn, both or which are references to youthful state of being; of babies (not species specific) and cattle respectively.

Spilled milk under the bridge, yeah? >.<

That struck me immediately as odd, too. I'm with you on both accounts. "Wet behind the ears" or "Green" to express naivete or inexperience. But, truth be told, communication is the point, and he definitely communicated the sentiment.

Since I'm not a Far Cry fan, can someone please explain this whole I'm gonna wait for the reviews because the writer worked on Far Cry 3 thing? I agree that both hoodies seen in this trailer are atrocious.

I'll wait and see what it is. So far, I haven't seen anything that really grabs me.

Oh god, it is.. This makes so much more sense now. Still gonna check it out, but knowing that definitely changes things. And ofc he's the kinda guy that would wear that sweater.

Everything has me on board except for the writer. Count me in the "waiting for reviews" camp.

I had seen screenshots before, and wasn't particularly interested, but now that I've actually seen it animate, I'm totally going to buy this at some point.

The combat seems so out of place for such a pretty side scroller. Still, very interested to see what this is all about next week. Is it weird that an end product can seem so genuine and sincere when the people talking about it come across a little. . . pretentious? That writer rubbed me the wrong way. I'm sure he's a great dude in real life but the way he came across on camera combined with that "extraordinary" hoodie. . Ah well, seems like a great game, very interested.

Not too interested in turn based combat, but this looks so damn beautiful, I'm willing to give it a shot.

I'm interested in this, enough that I kind of don't want to hear much more about it until it's out.
