See What Seven Minutes of Remember Me Looks Like

Stunning. This idea has incredible potential.

I really can't complain about the rising amount of stealth games recently.

I know, right? It made me so sad when the entire industry decided, based on misinterpretation of focus testing (probably), that stealth isn't a feature that consumers want in their games. They didn't understand that it wasn't stealth as a concept that was the problem, it was the necessity for multiple reloads due to hard fail states. All they had to do was program in various ways for players to recover from detection without having to resort to reload. It looks like they're starting to understand that now. I am happy. :)

Me too,I just wish Ubisoft had learned that before making AC II,ACB and ACR

@Spoonman671: I think you are reading too far into this game. It's like asking "How does training Pokemon make you the very best? Wouldn't curing cancer help better society and intrinsically make you the most memorable person in the Kanto region?"

Looks great! I'm in, as long as it actually turns out to be good, that is.

I feel like this game just might stoke the flames of the oversexualization of female characters in games argument a bit, but whatever.

What the hell is she wearing?

Cause Japanese.

I thought she was wearing fanservicey nothing as well, but if you look it's just how the colors are coming together. When she's at Frank's window and leans forward, you can see that she is indeed fully clothed and not just wearing some weird costume.

Meanwhile this looks pretty interesting but...

I dunno. Light platforming and a linear 'hit X to make this horrible thing happen except not really' gameplay sequence doesn't really seem that interesting. If the rest of the game is like this, in a year when we have like 3 other assassination-y games coming out or announced, this might be the one that gets passed over. But she seemed surprise at being given this kind of mission so maybe they're just being zeitgeisty and the rest of the game is totally different? Who knows.

...I could see this being a problem. Now, if this is a game revolving around stealthily making your way to a target or multiple targets and pressing X to initiate whatever memory-changing event there is, I guess that could be a good game but it would severely undercut the potential on display here. At least it seems written competently.

Anyway, this seems interesting enough to keep good track of. I shall remember it.

That was completely unintentional, I swear.

The main plot twist will involve the revelation that the protagonist's memory has been "remixed", right?

Unless they're retarded, they will hint at this. The premise is too interesting to not make an attempt on this theme of questioning reality and moral choice.

If they are smarter, they wont actually have the protagonist's memory "remixed".

If they're really smart, you won't be able to tell the difference.

Every time I see anything about this game I just think of this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYURxfaTdpY

hahaha yup me too.

Nice, another good looking new IP.

I FUCKIN' LOVE GHOST TRICK.

I love how the character is like “What? You want me to KILL him?!” but then is totally cool with it once it's revealed that she only has to hack his brain and make him kill himself, as if there's some significant moral difference or something.

Why isn't their a non lethal way to have dealt with this guy? they could have made that an option and I'd have been vastly more impressed with this overall. I'm getting pretty damn tired of games that try to imply the player has options and yet in the end our characters are still just slightly varied types of sociopathic mass murdering nut cases.

looks good

Conceptually that looks really interesting. Not too sure what the point of all the free-running stuff is, but whatevs.

Seems cool.

assassins creed meet deus ex...rental worth at least?

I really like what they've shown so far. I just hope the overall plot and reasons as to why you're messing with these people isn't dumb.

The premise looks extremely interesting. The graphics look a bit rough in some parts. Too much blur and bloom in the memory sequence, for my taste. And did you see that aliasing? Damn. But I'm sure they'll have polished the edges by the time of release... literally.

@JamesM: If you find the other "trailer" trailer, they flat out state she has. So I think you start out the game with that in mind.

That's racist and the developer is French.

Put a protagonist in a game that can hang onto a tiny ledge forever, and I'm in.

So my actual answer is "Because French"?

I saw no mountain drifting. Title is seriously misleading.

This looks great. And I'm real happy for the resurgence of cyberpunk in vidya.

Oh come off it before you hurt yourself with drama.

How is this not an Ubi game?

She should have just remixed his memories with Dubstep. That would have made him kill himself real quick.

Looks neat, I like cyberpunk.

No drama, but people have been asking for extreme political correctness lately. Either call out every kind of bad -ism no matter how casual or none.

looks like a ubisoft montreal game. cool.

I honestly thought the game was called "Seven Minutes of Remember Me" for a bit.

I have never seen a game like this before. Messing around with the target's mind to make him think he done something which he originally did not do in his memory, that's an awesome way to kill a target. I also love how the player can access the walls and climb with ease where the environment looked like it could not be scaled. And also the detail of the world created, so much attention to detail.

Remix his memories! #generationremix

I'm liking the look of this, seems interesting and different.

This is everything that's wrong with modern game design. All the "cool ideas" here just came down to following a perfectly linear sequence of press-this-button-we're-telling-you-to-press, with zero player agency. I bet you can change people's memories to get them to unlock doors too!

For me, the most interesting thing they could do is reveal that actual player actions are false memories. That way it's not just the character's memories that are being undermined; in a very loose sense, it's also the player's.

Oh, interesting. I'm guessing it'll turn out that her brain was more hacked than she thought it was, and that her main motivation in the game will turn out to have been manipulated. Or perhaps they'll play up the unreliable narrator thing throughout.

@Chumm: This. Completely linear "press X to win" gameplay wrapped in a pretty package. I think I'll pass.

And so cyberpunk continues to rise.

Deus Ex meets Assassin's Creed? Sold.

This looks intriguing, and a different type of game that we don't often get.

I'm looking forward to learning more about it.

On one hand it'll be interesting to see how much freedom we get in terms of the "remix" scenarios. I'm assuming not much, but even then I love this more for the feeling it ultimately delivers even if the method ends up being linear. But who can say now? On the other hand: my cyberpunk cravings are through the roof at this point.

Err, I think Deus Ex + Watch Dogs is still Watch Dogs. This is more like Deus Ex + Uncharted/Assassin's Creed.

Both of them still looks sweet though.

The graphics look good. And it seems like there will be an interesting story. The gameplay when she's "remixing" his memory looks too simple. If it's just a matter of toggling each item one at a time until the objective is achieved, then it's not much more than a dressed up adventure game. Don't get me wrong, I find adventure games relaxing on Sunday afternoon. But a sci-fi AAA-budgeted game like this needs some more depth or challenge there to hold my interest.

generation remix approves

Nice. I really like the remixing concept in this, even if it's a little simple like people mentioned.

I dunno, you can say it's press button to win or w/e, there could be more to it than that. It looks like a stealth game not so much an action game since it seems like the protagonist isn't equipped at all, but the traversal looked smooth, which imho would be important if that's true. Environments seemed full and rich, I'd think there may be multiple routes she could have taken (or maybe in later levels) to make it more like a puzzle game like I think stealth games really should be.

There weren't many options in the remixing in the demo (which I would guess is the first one in the game since she had to ask if he expected her to kill him), but the mechanic could lend itself to some nice adventure game style puzzle solving if the scenes were more involved, which I'm going to assume will be the case (reluctantly because I have little faith in capcom these days).

There is also a lot of room for an interesting albeit predictable story in there to. I still find it amazing how quick people are to judge a game on so little information, it's all going to come down (as always) to execution. I'm more concerned that it's a Capcom game than anything I saw in the sample, will be keeping my eye on this one.

Sold.

@WiqidBritt: Word to this.
