What do you think about the *QTE* system ?
*Please excuse the poor english syntax and grammar as it's not my first language.*



Yeah right it's just basic QTE, however ( and this is just my opinion ), i find this color system more enjoyable than to have a big A or X who's popping in the middle of the screen. I really thing it's a good idea, sure it's not so immersive and the color *aura* could be more discrete ( but it will be less visible in action i guess, and will tend to make this action more messy for the player... ). It's a system would definitly gain to be exploited in more games of the same gender than this game and also improved. We can imagine an upgraded version where some body parts of the enemy have they own colors and thus vary the attacks and dismemberments...left leg/Red, right arm/Blue, head/Yellow and so on...i like the idea, don't you ? ( of course, it's obvious it's a very simple system in term of gameplay and it tend to make the player more spectator of his actions then actor, it should not be a main element of the gameplay, but just a cool feature ). What do YOU think ?

but what do the colors mean????????? it never explains it?? whether you hit the attack button when the color is there or not it still executes the guy in the same fashion just different scernarios. is it just that the qte's are forgiving?? also what does "IMMUNES" mean??? its int he top right corner at the menu screen.

I dont understand it either ; Im stuck on V of the story line .

Is the color a timing thing? is it which key to press ; I have no idea.

Blue is LMB. Yellow is RMB. Hitting the correct key gives you a higher combo which in turn gives you more Xp/Gold/Skillpoints depending on what mode you are playing. It also gives you more Hp/Xp/Dmg/Focus on the perks you are using at the time, they can be accessed by scrolling the mouse wheel.

Its based on the xbox controller button colors.

My opinion of the quicktime is that it is a great idea, but is far too forgiving. If you are supposed to hit "blue" and accidentally hit "yellow" then you still proceed with the death animation. It would be more interesting if you messed up on a quicktime color that the guy would sneak out of the death animation and you would have to kill him from scratch all over again. Just my opinion.
@acuraice, @Androctonus

The colors are based on the XBOX controller, if you play with keyboard/mouse it loose his sense imo.

@Robertallee

Totally agree with you, it should be more challenging. And to take your idea futher, if you miss a color then the enemy can do a devastating combo and lower your health or disarm you..something like this...
