Wardevil Chronicles revealed

As part of a New Years treat, the team over at Digi-Guys have released new content from a special side project entitled "Wardevil Chronicles."

According to the DigiGuys, Wardevil Chronicles is an accompanying 2D Cartoon/Anime that will be used to debut various characters and scenarios throughout the life of the main WarDevil Project.

"We may do more - and expand the Project in many ways, as we've had great fun creating the 2D style - it's designed to be very different to the  high-end/CG look of the main Project," said a DigiGuys representative.

Until then, hop on over to the mini-site and check out the new teaser trailer. Also, check out PSU exclusive 1080p screenshots of the new Wardevil Chronicles below.

    Is this a joke? They still haven't shown a single shred of actual gameplay footage from the game (the previous trailers they've released were all preprendered CG), and now they're showing off a spin-off animated movie to a game that seemingly doesn't even exist?

    This whole thing reaks more and more of a hoax as time goes on.

    Sounds like another stalling tactic to make it seem like things are hapening, but on the other hand maybe leearcher's complaints have caused them to try and build a better public impression with this.

     

    The art is good but leearcher never said any of the art created for the project was ever bad, He just claimed it's beeing horribly managed and if this game really has been in production since 2004 then he's right about that.

    WHERE IS THE GAMEPLAY?

    I'm starting to think they're full of crap right now.

    Am I the only one who hates anime? I can't stand the usually whiney heroes and supernatural plots. Gungrave is the only one I can tolerate.

    so that's what they were doing all this time making a cartoon. i agree with gekidami where's that game info.

    @grayfox1471: This looks nothing like anime. It's clearly Western-style cartooning, in the same fashion as The Gorillaz music videos and Star Wars Clone Wars. Your bashing anime is just innappropriate in this instance.

    "According to the DigiGuys, Wardevil Chronicles is an accompanying 2D Cartoon/Anime that will be used to debut various characters and scenarios throughout the life of the main WarDevil Project."

    That's why I bashed anime. Read first, respond second.

    Maybe if they spent less time doing these "side projects" and more time working on the game we'd actually hear something about it.

     

    @grayfox

    Ya, you're the only one. Because the rest of us aren't stereotypical b@sta.rds who thinks all anime is the same. Go watch Death Note, Elfen Lied, FLCL, you'll understand.

     

    O wait, you'll never understand because you're so biased and full of shlt that you would never try it out in the first place.

     

    Have fun enjoying your bland activities while I do whatever the heI I want to without letting some preconscribed bias stop me.

    this game is vapourware, it's a big con by the digi-guys

    • 3:30pm GMT - December 31st, 2008

    @ 11. I'm so sorry I don't like the things you like. I must conform or be b!tched at on a forum. Geez guys, it's not okay to have a differing opinion?

    Or to voice that opinion? I thought that was the basis of freedom. I didn't rag on anyone that likes anime... just said I don't like them.

    I don't like anime either.  I don't like this style of art.  This game doesn't exist.

    • 3:59pm GMT - December 31st, 2008

    Girugamesh, it's pretty stupid to judge a person based on one statement. Besides, people make decisions based on bias all the time. Imagine you dislike a certain food. Each time you try that food, it tastes horrible to you. So, do you try it every time you see it because it might be different, or do you say to yourself "I tried that food enough times and never enjoyed it, I'll stay away from it"?
    I tried enough anime. I'm staying away from it.

    Grayfox: "I can't stand the usual whiney superheroes and supernatural plots"

    First of all - You're stereotyping the usual "whiney superheroes" probably because you've only seen English dubs of anything. Watch Japanese audio with English subtitles and you would know.

    Of course you'll never know, though, because of your preconscribed bias. Take Death Note, Elfen Lied, FLCL, 5cm per second, Samurai Champloo, Sword of the Stranger, any of it, I don't see any whiney heroes. Bet you've never even heard of most of that, though.

     

    As for the supernatural plots - Almost EVERY media involves a supernatural plot, in every movie, TV series, book, there is something that is impossible in the reality as we know it. Just by this statement I can see that you're LOOKING for something to dislike about anime, otherwise you'd be criticizing every media in life for impossible plots.

    So the guy doesn't like most anime...let him be...

     

    The fact that he mentioned Gungrave (best anime of all time...period) should be enough proof that he isn't just "looking" for something to dislike about anime...

    • 6:58pm GMT - December 31st, 2008

    @greyfox - I guess you are the only one here that hates anime. Tho, your reasons for hating it are incredibly narrow. Look into some real anime and get back to us.

    @CSUPSU - gungrave is far from "the best anime of all time"

    -Back to the topic. I'm sad it's taking SO long to reveal stuff - as the game looks kewl.

    • 7:58pm GMT - December 31st, 2008

    Girugamesh stated in another post:

    "lol
    retarded gay rights kid, i still don't see how 'christ' or 'jew' is banned, but I sure as *&(*^ don't want a gay faction being made in home. "buh buh buh they're people too...!!1!"
    lol, still dont want em practicing their sick shlt in public while im around"

    Now who's being biased? Judging people by labels.
    And because I don't like anime, I must have never seen any good ones right? I already mentioned Gungrave, and I like the movie Spirited away. I've watched animes and I tell you now, I like very few of them. You assume that something you like could never possibly seem lame to anyone. You're the narrow minded bigot.

    You guys are ghey for even arguing about anime.

     

     

    I'm also starting to think this is vaporware as well.

  22. Girugamesh | Shidousha

    • 8:57pm GMT - December 31st, 2008

    grayfox, I said that I didn't want them around in public, I said nothing else criticizing them (other than i thought it was sick shlt).

    And I didn't even state the reasons why I don't want to see them around in public, but you DID state the reasons you don't like anime which, JUST LIKE hush404 said, are very narrow reasons, indeed.


    I gave NO steretype against gay people, you gave your retarded stereotypes against anime.

     

    That's the difference in the situation, so GTFO.

    @The people who are whinning about the game: not all companies overhype and show ever bit a piece of a game right away! They dont want to spoil the plot, story ot ect. They'll wait closer to launch to show Gameplay, so STFU and wait. God damn! Effing two year olds want everything right away.

    I hate anime

    Death Note is ****

     

    I hate cartoon, I like the real stuff, I mean, Uncharted, James Bond,  is'nt anywhere near reality but IT ATLEAST LOOKS LIKE IT.

    Damn japanese figures with big eyes that makes them look like barbie dolls.... and the japanese voice actors are even worse then the english ones.

    And NO, I'm not from England or USA

    Congratulations, you've just spouted your retarded that almost no one agrees with.

    Stop making other stuff and make the damn game already...

    Don't mind Girugamesh Shajan. He's just an angry little kid who gets upset when you pick on anime. He just can't handle it when people hate what he obviously adores.

    @grayfox

    I can understand people not liking something, but it pis.ses me off when people make stupid generalizations about things. And not just anime. We'd get in a fight if you made a stupid generalization about almost anything.

     

    So say you don't like anime, say it sucks, say it's the worst thing in God's creation, I don't give a fck, but make a retarded generalized stereotype of as broad a category as an animation that's simply has a certain style and is made in Japan, and you're just asking to get your own stupidity.

  31. grayfox1471 | SaintGeorge14

    • 2:59pm GMT - January 1st, 2009

    Shut up kid. Any person on here that says they don't like anime and you have a fit. Grow up punk. I can generalize all I want and it should mean nothing to you. But you're trying to attack me personally. You got a lot of growing up to do. Pfft. I'm ending this. You aren't worth the time.

    Looks like hot garbage. The characters art style contrasts too much with the enviroment. Another thing. Where the h3ll is Wardevil the game?!

    Pretty insecure, eh? Resorting to talking about age, and can't finish the argument? Cya later, hope not to see your stupidity flood other articles here on PSU

    Too all those fighing about the whole anime thing...

    Ill go right on ahead and clear this whole thing up now.

    Anime is an ART STYLE (although the style is also known as Manga when used in comics). not a genre of animation. just because you dont like the look of something it doesnt mean you should disregard the content.

    People simply claiming to like of dislike anime simply what the characters look like is basicly another way of claiming to be a short sighted fool.

    Its as simple as that, there isnt any argument to it. Go right on ahead and stick your opinion up your anus.

    Not that it matters anyway, this is clearly western style animation.

    More on topic, what I think we have here is another case of devs showing screens of a project the very second they have working models, before hardly into the actual development itself. What have we seen so far? three character models and one background?

    Sounds like the first WIP engine scene to me.
    For all we know they could have announced this after two days of modeling.

    @clipnotdone

    THANK YOU. That's what I'm trying to say, there CAN BE NO ridiculous generalizations like that because anime is an art style with a japanese cultural influence, there's no such thing as having to have a certain voice, or a certain story, and BTW the whiney voices are from the crappy english dubs.
