The character-focused trailers look very good, but everytime they try to showcase short or long non-cinematic gameplay sequences I'm the same: does the combat suck or is it the person playing it? Because it looks fucking clunky. The city also, despite liking the design a lot, looks kinda lifeless.
I still think the marketing probably is to blame for a lot of these sensations, but I'm not too confident. I hope it turns out OK, it's not like we have many games where we can play as these characters in a meaningful way. I don't expect it to set the world on fire and I'd be fine with a competent game even if it's not great.
