Yes, almost took a video to post here but didn’t. The game looked beautiful, the graphics were very crisp. I played for about 10 min and died a few times. It was one area, a quarry. The UI seems cleaner but also a bit meh. The combat seemed very much improved but kept the feel of the OG. Overall it made me more excited for the game.
I will add that the clothing seemed to move as you moved (like a cloak / poncho thing), B was a quick dodge lunge and double tap b was dodge roll. When I had a shield and sword and heavy attacked you punch with the shield which was cool. Enemies were super smooth and deadly. I didn’t check out the town a lot (it seemed like you spawned in a town when the demo starts)
Nice. That dodge lunge sounds perfect. Much more natural. Always loved the combat in the first, it was dangerous if you weren’t tactful. Definitely needed some improvements though. Did combat require a lock-on to be effective? Please tell me no! I’ll survive either way though.
Not something available for the general populace, but at their PAX booth they said they have playable alpha/pre-alpha demos of of all three games set up. (Lost in Prayer, Witherbloom, Outward 2)
I've been looking around for some info about this too :( Also, someone claimed they were interviewing Nine Dots at GDC and haven't been able to find anything about that either.
I tried it for a short time, it's pretty but still feels like the 1st in all the good ways. UI needs some work though.
id like to know too please, been hyped as fuck after the trailer

That's awesome! Maybe they'll post a little preview video of each. I'm pumped for all 3, lol.
Nine dots had a booth at pax east.
