We all know this scene


Well check this out. Its from a game called Requiem: Bloodymare its website is http://www.playrequiem.com/

As soon as I got to that spot and looked out at the distance it reminded me of that scene from CV4. The whole game has a very dark dirty gritty feel very similar to CV and a lot of the landscape looks like it could be from a new CV game. The towns and stuff are all post apoc and literally built with whatever they could find and they look good too but more RE4 than CV.

Anyway how bout a CV that looks like that =D with the full free roaming 3d.

Hows about a CV game that looks better than that. Those graphics really don't impress. But the large areas would be nice
What a horrible night to have a curse!

Dunno. Too realistic, too low on fantasy and bloody stuff. Also everything looks like marble, because of the way it reflects light... Don't like the charas either.

Looks prerendered.

Fancy seeing these folks again! They did a Sherlock Holmes / Cthulhu mythos crossover adventure game in full 3D - so perhaps there's some real time stuff going on here. Certainly the first screenshot reminds me of their Sherlock Holmes game (notice that there's apparently nothing at all outside the walls of that suspiciously well-lit cemetery).

They really need to work on their lighting, and perhaps more interesting architecture + texture work is in order, too.

But the large areas would be nice
It's probably bigger than it looks, but that's not saying much, since they haven't bothered to create convincing backdrops to frame stuff. The courtyard seems to be floating in a featureless void, for instance.

The N64 CVs actually do pretty well for scale.
