I did another scene-by-scene analysis, this time for the PS4 announcement video

There's tons of new info in this PS4 video. I've gone over every new scene (those not in the ViDoc) in detail to form new theories and strengthen my old ones. I've tied the scenes in to concept art and ViDoc scenes to help you get the whole picture. Evidence for 3rd person camera: http://i.imgur.com/OujaPM6.gif If there's anything I missed or needs correcting let me know here or in the article comments. Cheers~

      • I miss these days of rampant speculation and giddy excitement for every little tease we would get. Now it's 2 weeks until launch, man how time flies

      • Very good read mate, I would like to think that little snippet at the bottom there is confirmation of 3rd person, but that could have just been testing.

          • Now, Destiny is the exact example of what will happen to future gaming. All online. Only single player. They will force us to buy multiple televisions, consoles, and disks in order to play with our friends and families. This is the future. They will begin to leave last-gen consoles behind, and nothing will be in their way. We may be gamers, but truly, we have no power on our own. We need to band together, and bring the fight to them!

            • I could see it being able to switch from third to first person. Although they did mention "If you love first person shooters..." [url=http://www.bungie.net/7_New-Beginnings/en-us/News/News?aid=10308]in this article bullet 1.[/url]

              • Just a question is this a fan web page, like the new fan webpage. And how old is this.

                • I looked at [url=http://i.imgur.com/KOTTxsr.jpg]this[/url] again, I couldn't stop thinking about the bits and trails of light on the pillars to the left and right. I thought it was random or maybe some sort of location specific emlem at first but they remind me of a dungeon map from a certain Hylian centered game. With everything this game is trying to do, I don't see why it couldn't be a possibility. Purely speculative, but what if they showed you which rooms were cleared/explored like an in game map? I know that is a stretch at best but I can dream.

                  • I'd pretty much enjoy a third person camera similar to what Skyrim has.

                    • While this all looks cool, it kind of gives me doubts about Destiny. These landscapes dont really look "open world" to me :/ they kind of just look like Halo campaign levels with vast areas of land, OUTSIDE of the playable zone. I really hope they go into more detail as to how open world this game is going to be. Or even if its open world at all.

                        A third person camera would be absolutely amazing! What's the point of creating a badass space warrior if you're not going to be able to admire them for yourself? Very nice job!

                        • Character model movement on that 3rd person scene (where the 3 guardians are standing at a balcony of some sort) it's awesome. Looks fluid and natural. Awesome job btw, op.

                            • Something I've deduced from the Cabal concept art and footage is that, as a culture and a civilization, they are very industrial and militaristic. The general aesthetic prominent in their equipment, vehicles, and architecture reflects a simplistic society that favors military and economic power, and disregards our ideas of comfort and luxury. These metal behemoths bring the Covenant Hunters to mind, covered in heavy armor and wielding immense weapons and shields. There is also something special and familiar about their facelessness: we might experience similar feelings when we fight them as we did when fighting Hunters. I'm excited to learn more about these races in the future.

                                Hm, they toyed with third person in Alpha Halo CE, and in Halo 3-Reach dismantled turret, I just doubt that they'd break their established genre. EDIT: I wonder to what degree Bungie gets the giddies when reading these sorts of dissections. Good read, OP. Easily digestible for people like me, too busy to this themselves.
