Lately a lot of films have been going for the home video style, which I love. And that's exactly the look IO Interactive is going for with Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days. But now they are worried that gamers that only care about graphics won't approve of the shaky cameras, rough textures, and pixelated violence.
"We Actually do think that yeah, the people that we're already showing this to do get it," explains Lund. "This doesn't come across as actually low res when you play it, I think that it comes across as very modern. The way we actually show each other what happens in the world, whether we choose reality television or social stuff. We tried to polish all of the visuals like that. It's not like this game's not polished, we spent a lot of resources into creating this feel and look, but I think it makes. Sometimes it makes the Hollywood style if you know what i mean?"
Personally I feel this style will make the game seem more realistic. For example the film Avatar and God of War III have some of the best graphics I have ever seen, but neither of them felt realistic to me, they just had good graphics. We still have a while to go before the technology is there, at least for video games. So this style seems like a step in the right direction and I cant wait to see how it turns out.
