I don't know how to add photos to a post but I did notice in some of the Nacon concept art for Nacon Connect they've nailed Weller's big lips and the Robo-Helmet looks a little beat up...may be a taste of what to expect?
Terminator: Resistance isn't a groundbreaking A++ game but its an enjoyable shooter with RPG elements, completely respectful to the lore and easily the best Terminator game ever released. Many Terminator fans who have played it regard it as Terminator 3 in their head canon.
I think we're in great hands with Teyon. They might not have an A++ budget but lore is evidently important to them so I'm genuinely excited to see what they do with this unloved and underappreciated Robo franchise.

That image was pretty neat!

Peter Weller is confirmed!
I really enjoyed the trailer. I think we're in very good hands.

I thought it was really great. Had some nice moments and callbacks. Having Weller back is a pleasant surprise.
The graphics are perfectly fine but nothing spectacular. This was never going to be a big budget AAA title but i can understand some people being disappointing by the dated graphics.

Colour me interested. I see it's going on the Switch but also Steam, so I might pick this up. _________________

The trailer blew me away and exceeded my expectations. Having Weller back is huge and not something I thought would actually happen. I think that speaks to this game having somewhat higher production values than Resistance, and seems this developer is going the right direction. Two of my biggest concerns were the audio and visual style. Not only do we have Weller back but the city looks great in this trailer, with a nice level of detail and a sheek yet seedy vibe. I know this game is not cutting edge in terms of graphics and may not be up to everyone's standards, but my concern is more about style than technical quality and on this front I was very happy with what I saw.
The only thing I felt this trailer was lacking were solid shots of gameplay, the footage cut so quickly it was hard to get a feel for the moment to moment flow of combat. There were a couple quick shots of Robo pulling some melee moves to sent enemies flying which looks like a lot of fun. During the ED-209 fight you can see him shoot something on the ceiling and crumble down on ED. These moments look great but I still do have many questions about the overall gameplay and story. Still, this was a great trailer that revealed more than I expected. And it's less than a year away! It will be a tough wait but this is the most excited I've been for a new RoboCop product in many years.

Looks pretty great. The company claimed Peter Weller will be provide the voice, which is a surprise (but in the trailer the voice clip at the end was from the first film). I´m not a gamer (I play 8, 16 bit games from time to time and that´s all), so I can´t complain much about technical aspects.
The enviroment is really cool, I dig the dark mood and industrial landscapes depicted there.

They better update the "Targeting" graphics to actually be the robo-vision font and in green! (BankGothic I believe it is). _________________

Yeah, I was a little bit annoyed by that, but I guess it´s just temporary. I meant, why bothering with the crosshair thing when you put a bland fond in white? I´m sure it´ll be changed in the finished game. It´d be stupid to fail on an easy task when you´re putting effort on other aspects of the game

I hear ya about Robo-Vision for an authentic experience but I hope that is something that can be toggled on or off. It may make things very blurred - mainstream players probably won't like it - and we need this game to be successful in the mainstream to encourage more RoboCop games in the near future.

I noticed in some promo art for the game that they credit "RoboCop-RoboCop 3 - 1987-1993 (C) Orion Pictures"... so are there going to be elements of RoboCop 2 and 3 in the game as well I wonder? It would be odd to give credit for 2 movies if there weren't anything in the game to do with them... Perhaps RoboCain makes an appearance or you have to do something with Nuke, or *shudder* the flight pack is hidden somewhere... _________________

Considering this developer stuffed so many references in Terminator: Resistance I definitely expect we will see at least some easter eggs related to RoboCop 2 and 3 and maybe even the Series and beyond. Terminator is a bit of a different case where the second one is considered the best with all the important lore stuff, but I still think their focus for Rogue City won't just be on the first movie. I don't know if they'd be able to get the jetpack working but the gunarm from RoboCop 3 seems like it would be an easy and beloved inclusion. What I have been imagining is a game set between 2 and 3 that introduces Robo to the gunarm for the first time and sets up the conflict with the splatterpunks. What we will probably get is more of a loose sequel to the original like basically every other RoboCop spinoff, but even then I am sure they will include some nods to the expanded RoboCop universe.
