@@sccanj Ratio is looking better now. And yeah, GOW 5 isn't coming out this year. Release dates and teasers mean nothing anymore.

@@hex1233 exactly man. There s anyways a change in trend for gaming consumers as more and more people are inclining towards indie game devs instead of AAA games(valheim proves it).

Heart Machine is an incredibly great indie studio from what I've seen so far. I hope they don't question their abilities due to the dislikes coming from the negative other presentations.
@@jaybonewilks2747 Alx Preston, the main dev, already confirmed in 2019 that both games are set in the exact same universe. But he also said it won't be a direct sequel to HLD.
@@jamesbrice3267 What's weird is this game reminds me a lot of haven, in that both the studios released critically acclaimed 2d games in 2016. Now they're trying their shot at 3d more open worlds.
the three games im most excited about are solar ash, radio the universe, and signalis. Solar Ash definitely tops that list because of just how professional the development's been and consistent the timeline is. I'm super excited to see more of this project.
@megahunter No. The rest is Ocarina of Time, Pathless, Hyper Light Drifter aesthetically (same universe too), Journey, Gravity Rush. Lots of inspirations.
The "boss battles" in Oure are also like that, except instanced, not worldmappy. You climb on Titans to awaken them or help calm them down. The sense of speed in movement reminds me of a small indie game: Mulaka.
I'm a bit sad that we didn't see a direct sequel to HLD but I really appreciate the will to create something always new and unique, Alex and his team have my utmost respect and I'm really stoked for this game.
This game is set in Hyper Light Drifter's universe, though. But yeah, not a direct sequel. I would personally have wanted a prequel to HLD. And then this game too.
@@Luka1180 yes exactly what I was thinking! btw do you think they might have the huge robot golems that were in hyper light drifter that we saw it would be awesome to fight them in this game especially. i would love to know your thoughts.
if you like this type of game, PLEASE PLAY GRAVITY RUSH 1/2! Solar Ash looks REALLY similar(enemies, game mechanics, combat, environment), and if you think you'll enjoy this one, try Gravity Rush!
Nice, this game looks amazing. A lot of obvious influences, but without directly pulling from one... a proper mish-mash that ends up looking unique. Was a huge fan of Hyper Light Drifter, can't wait for this one too.
While I really like the look of the gameplay, there’s one main issue I have. It’s that the floating grapple rocks, the obvious targets on enemies, they don’t feel organic; they look like they were placed there for the convenience of the player. If there’s anything that you change from an aesthetic standpoint, I’d want it to be that. Of course, anything that negatively impacts the fluidity and fun of the gameplay is undesirable, but I think you’ve got 9/10 of the pieces for a truly stunning aesthetic alongside the excellent gameplay. One option would be to make the moving targets ethereal or holographic, so they’re still there for the convenience of the player, but they still make sense in-world as they’re projected there by some sort of companion or vision augmentation. Of course I haven’t experienced the lore so I couldn’t tell whether that’s been done here either.
POV: You go into a black hole..................... HEY Vsauce, Michael here, this is a bowl of mac 'n' cheese, or, is it? **The music that plays when the hook is said starts**
Have the exact same feelings. This game makes me think about Gravity Rush, and then I get sad knowing that we'll likely never get a new game in that franchise ever again. Especially now that Japan Studio is all but shut down.
Glad to see Alx Preston is still kicking. Keep that heart machine hummin', man.
I’m stoked to try this game out. Heart Machine did a brilliant job with Hyper Light Drifter!!
This game is set in the same.universe, btw, but isn't a direct sequel.
Send like a decent sonic adventure clone
@@Luka1180 No way!? Where’d you figure that out?
@@TheInspirationalMind On his Twitter.
@@infamoswordz ?
Happy to hear Disasterpeace is on this project.
Sonic the Hedgehog if he went to art school.
I’m glad I’m not the only one too think that. The whole skates give me a shadow jet set radio vibes.
@@tonycd5304 mee too. It makes me think what Sonic Boom could have been
This could take a very dark turn... did he make if into art school?
Yeah speaking about Sonic the Hedgehog when's the next game going to come out been a while I hope we get a next game at least
U mean Shadow the Hedgehog
Wish they used more of the OST in this video
Sounds like Disasterpeace is doing the OST again
@@Shifty989 He is confirmed to be the composer again. I'm super hyped for the soundtrack!
How is there not a prerelease OST yet, like what we got for RoR2?
Please let this be the beginning of a new wave of Platformers
👍
Play The Pathless.
Solar ash 2,3,4,5 🔥🤩
This game looks sick
Does it have covid?
@@laneferal6756 honestly....ye
This game honestly looks like the Sonic the Hedgehog game I always wanted
Agree indie dev are innovative
@@Harley411 they're mostly creative and unique, which is why they mostly only have one or two games
Yeah speaking about Sonic the Hedgehog when's the next game going to come out been a while I hope we get a next game at least
Even just the smoother movement would go a long way compared to 3D Sonic's i've seen
Thats how I felt after playing ratchet and clank
I’m just hoping this game becomes a new milestones for movement focused games
Beyond excited for this! Hyper Light Drifter is one of my fav games of all time.
s a m e
x3
Why all the dislikes? Game looks pretty cool.
Salty people that didn’t get their GOW Ragnarok update, they still believe that game is coming this year haha
@@sccanj dude the teaser literally said 2021, but even without news on that g as me I thought this state of play was great

Exclusivity maybe?
Love this style of gameplay. And this style overall. Best showing of the state of play
This reminds me of Gravity Rush
Not even close. GR is way cooler.
Yup
The beast look like the Nevi . Some of them even have armor.
Same, the monsters are way too similar to Nevi, red glowing bodies and skull armour and all
Heart Machine is an incredibly great indie studio from what I've seen so far. I hope they don't question their abilities due to the dislikes coming from the negative other presentations.
OST by Disasterpeace.
I've just started playing Hyper Light Drifter and I'm loving it. More than happy to support the team at Heart Machine by checking Solar Ash out!
Do you think hyper light drifter and solar ash, are a connected universe?
Maybe I'm going in to deep lol
@@jaybonewilks2747 Alx Preston, the main dev, already confirmed in 2019 that both games are set in the exact same universe. But he also said it won't be a direct sequel to HLD.
@@Luka1180 really! Now I want this game
Super Impressed.. I feel like someone at Heart Machine felt they missed Jet Grind Radio's open environments and said "Lets bring that back".
These developers being given access to a Z-Axis to hide secrets is terrifying to me.
While I would've favoured a slow exploration game, there is no doubt that this will be a phenomenal experience!
Try Haven as long as you don't mind love stories.
@@jamesbrice3267 What's weird is this game reminds me a lot of haven, in that both the studios released critically acclaimed 2d games in 2016. Now they're trying their shot at 3d more open worlds.
It wouldn't surprise me if some bits were more pensive or slow paced or athmospheric, like HLD. I certainly hope so!
Pathless: Sci-fi edition
Yes
Kinda yes, they are most likely not inspired by one another tho. They both started development independently in around 2017.
the three games im most excited about are solar ash, radio the universe, and signalis. Solar Ash definitely tops that list because of just how professional the development's been and consistent the timeline is. I'm super excited to see more of this project.
I've watched this trailer like ten times already and each time I rewatch it its an instand dopamine injection into my brain.
Art reminds me of Furi
Furi + Journey
I dont understand the..dislikes ?.. this game is still so beautyfull even if u are not willing to buy it..
Now this game, looks incredible!
i usually don't like much these type of games, but this looks pretty neat!
Looks like a lot of fun. Definitely keeping an eye on this. 👍
2:15 this scene reminds me of Shadow of the Colossus
SotC is one of the game's inspirations.
@megahunter No. The rest is Ocarina of Time, Pathless, Hyper Light Drifter aesthetically (same universe too), Journey, Gravity Rush. Lots of inspirations.
The "boss battles" in Oure are also like that, except instanced, not worldmappy.
You climb on Titans to awaken them or help calm them down.

@@oliverpineapple9186 Highly doubt it. It’s like millions of galaxies away universe wise
i absolutely loved HLD and can't wait to play Heart Machine's take on a 3D platformer
Fyi this game is set in HLD's universe.
@@Luka1180 i know!! that just makes me 1000x more excited!!
I'm starting to see a pattern to the games they make and the color pallete they use and i love it. Can't wait to try it out!
Yeah, both this and HLD have an identical color palette. Not complaining, just saying this is only their second game.
Immediately excited to see speedruns for this, it sounds like they're gonna just _look_ super, super cool
if you like this type of game, PLEASE PLAY GRAVITY RUSH 1/2! Solar Ash looks REALLY similar(enemies, game mechanics, combat, environment), and if you think you'll enjoy this one, try Gravity Rush!
I’m overly hyped! Cant wait to play and here the music Disasterpeace has made for this game
Looks kinda like The Pathless. Cant wait to try it!
The art style alone makes this a must buy for me. It looks absolutely gorgeous.
Wow the new gravity daze looks great on ps5
This is my most awaited game right now, I can’t wait to see what Heart Machine comes up with
Nice, this game looks amazing. A lot of obvious influences, but without directly pulling from one... a proper mish-mash that ends up looking unique. Was a huge fan of Hyper Light Drifter, can't wait for this one too.
A Sonic game with these mechanics please
Sega and Sonic the hedgehog needs to take notes
The beast is like Shadow of Colossus
This is REALLY making me want to go skating B)
i getting gravity rush , journey, the pathless, and shadow the hedgehog vibes here
This looks pretty exciting!
jack would love this honestly.
Reminds me of "The Pathless".
That looked the gameplay and style of the 13th colossi of Shadow of Colossus. Enjoyed a lot the style of this game.
with this type of game i hope they have the best Music team because the soundtracks will be the most required in game
The music is done by Disasterpeace (Rich Vreeland) who is famous for cranking out some of the best video game music in the industry. Don't worry :)
I want to live in that art style

Interesting how whenever Rei jumps to another place, her body and cape become darker and looks more skeletal.
I all love the music from hyper light drift
Combining two of my favorite things, astronomy and Heart Machine ♥️ looks like I’m buying a ps5
Yooo if we get a drifter cameo at the end or something...
this looks like what new sonic games want to be.
YEP Solar Ash is giving me lots of Pathless and Omensight vibes!
Pathless is a very accurate comparison
Hm, it didn't really grab me :/
Hope they'll have a demo
This game reminds a lot about Gravity Rush! Can't wait to try this one out¬
HLD is literally my favorite game of all time. I couldn’t be more hyped.
1:18 Wild "Anemo Hypostasis" appeared!
The movement reminds me of Concrete Genie once you can skate, and the main character in that was called Ash.
This is Solar Ash 👀
this game looks valid cant wait to see more on it👍🏽
What sonic games should be.
LETS GOO SOME LORE I CANT WAIT FOR THIS GAME IT LOOKS AMAZING AND I CANT WAIT TO EXPLORE THE WORLD
feels like gravity rush
Remind me of Crystal Dynamics and Eidos Interactive for PS1 Legacy of Kain series: Soul Reaver (1999), Soul Reaver 2 (2001), Defiance (2003). 😆
Nice! But when will Ps Now be available in Brazil? And the multiplayer online without Ps Plus?
POV: You go into a black hole.....................
HEY Vsauce, Michael here, this is a bowl of mac 'n' cheese, or, is it? **The music that plays when the hook is said starts**
One of my favourites from State of Play
For some reason I was expecting something more akin to Hyper Light Drifter, but this is completely different. Looks great!
This game is in the same universe as hyper light drifter
*I can’t stop listening to the music!*
I can’t wait for this. And the name *SOLAR ASH KINGDOM* sounded/looked way cooler.
Loved HLD so much, so the hype is real for this one !
Если Sega не делает нормального Соника, его сделаем мы. Выглядит интересно.
Hyper Light Drifter is one of my favourite indie games so I'm excited for this.
Is this coming to PC as well?
I really really hope so!
Its coming out on the epic games store
Yes.
Sooo sonic with a twist, I LOVE IT
Checking out this trailer because of All The Shinies channel patreon game play poll.
I dunno why but I'm reminded of the movie soul when I look at the artstyle.
Let’s go Virum!! ❤️
Was that the Infinity Blade at the 0:48?
Great game i should play it
Wow it's like a perfect blend between Journey, Alice the Madness Returns, and Prince of Persia. Can't wait till the Nintendo switch Port
I hope there’s at least one easter egg about the drifter. An outfit would be nice
Yo! She's skating like Shadow the Hedgehog!
Can’t wait, also can’t wait for y’all to revisit Hyperlight drifter with a bigger budget 😉
don't get me wrong, this game looks awesome, but it just makes me think about and long for a new gravity rush.
Have the exact same feelings. This game makes me think about Gravity Rush, and then I get sad knowing that we'll likely never get a new game in that franchise ever again. Especially now that Japan Studio is all but shut down.
The rainbow runner would have been a alternative title
This looks like a child of The Pathless & Journey.
Very VERY cool!
Sembra molto bello; ricorda un po' Sonic; sicuramente un bel misto tra azione e platform
So it's basically Shadow of the Colossus crossed with Hover's movement mechanics and Journey's art style?
I'll take it.
The movement looks rather stiff considering it's the main feature. I'm curious to find out how it feels
Not getting this until I plat Hyper 😂
Are there many different regular enemy types?
Why 100+ DISLIKEs ?
State of play disappointment I guess
