this just in: some games that aren't like STALKER are still worth playing

What, no Diablo 3 in that list?

Well I can't really say how it'd play because it's not actually out yet.

Complaining about a game's art direction before it's even out is fantastically petty.
I don't care about the art style, I own and play TF2 and XIII regularly. I care about what the art, and more importantly the interface, says about the game. Only an idiot would presume that Borderlands may be a slow-paced, serious, atmospheric, tactical FPS after watching that trailer. I would eagerly buy Borderlands if it was stylistically like STALKER, which is what the early previews suggested. It's now obvious that Borderlands just
isn't what I thought it was, so there's very little chance I'll be willing to fork out $60 for it- my same attitude as for just about every other fucking game. Is that so complicated?

You say you don't care about the art direction, yet here you are judging the game based on the art direction that you see in a short trailer. We have almost no information about the game save what we see in the trailer, and yet you're making a bunch of words but all anyone can hear is BAWWWWWWW. Just because you don't like a certain aesthetic (I saw your post before you edited it to cover your ass, btw) doesn't make it intrinsically bad. It could work quite well for Borderlands, you don't fucking know. So why don't you get the stick out of your ass and wait for more information before you get all NMA.
And when was the last time an early preview resembled the final game in anything more than superficial aspects?

Except he hasn't said that at all.
To judge a game largely on its art direction is ridiculous. What is even more pertinent is the fact that this particular game had its art direction completely change mid develoment. If one was to decide it had gone from potential buy to a no no based on that alone one might just be quite the dullard tbh.
