I just watched the whole video and it actually got me interested. It looks cool. I have no idea how this could turned in to a proper game though.

I agree, I thought it was pretty cool and interesting aswell. I don't think it would be a good game though. Are they planning on continuing the story or was it simply just a scene in a tech demo?

I think it's just a tech demo, but you could make it into a hitman-esque stealth game where you use a combination of facial/hair/skin change and disguises to infiltrate areas.

I'd think if a game were made, it would be something a bit more subdued. Like, she has to escape her buyer and make her way in the world, while hiding from the authorities, who don't take kindly to run-amok AI, and scientists that are intent on learning the secret to her soul. I'd pay to play that game.

Now you see, that's a premise for a story, but that tells you nothing of gameplay. I'd watch that movie, but is it a game? Not via that.

Am I the only one who was paying more attention to the performance than the graphics? I thought it was breathtakingly human.

No? You can't see that as a really good RPG platformer? I can. Somebody give me some money so I can make this game!

It was really good. Except for that "Thank you" when the QA lets her go. I think anybody that confused/non-plussed would just keep quiet and do as they're told.

Now you just have Mirror's Edge. There's real potential for disguise based stealth gameplay with the false-human exterior she has.

Well, yeah, obviously there would be disguise-based, stealth gameplay. In my game (:rolleyes:), she's running from people. But I get the impression you mean for it to be some kind of Alias-style assassination game... It doesn't really fit with the character in the video. :confused:

Not assassinations, but clearly there's potential for her to become a freedom fighter, looking to emancipate her kind. After all, their only a couple of defects from being just as human as she is.

Do it again with dozens of NPC's, hundred of trees, some rocks n' junk, AI, shadows on everything...

It's not so hard to have a simple scene like they did, much harder to have the same prettiness in a real game.

Add in a well though out cause-and-effect thing based on how violent you are ("AWOL robot" versus "Killer robot run amok!", the later being easier to start with but making things harder in the long run), a city to roam, and you've got a decent basis for a thriller-RPG. Plot could be about trying to find people willing to remove the tracker that's undoubtedly a standard feature, give her a new look, a new identity, acquiring specialist materials/hardware, and so on.
