What is or is not trivial is in the eye of the beholder, friend. I imagine most who are anticipating this game will spend far more time enjoying the game itself, focusing on the overall positives as a whole. While others will spend more time scrutinizing every detail of the game, thereby limiting their enjoyment thereof.
If you just "focus on the overall positives", you might be able to enjoy even bad games, as almost every game will have a few positive points. Not that I'm expecting
to be a bad game, but a game should also have as few negative points as possible. And paying attention to details can actually add to the game experience, though you are certainly entitled to your own style of playing.
Not every gamer has to have every fine little detail fined tuned to be an exact replica of physics as they apply in the real world. Most just want to play an enjoyable, memorable game. Again, though, you are certainly entitled to your opinion, as are the rest of us who will spend more time playing the game rather than trying to pick apart what ever faults it may or may not have.
No-one has suggested "to have every fine little detail fined tuned to be an exact replica of physics as they apply in the real world". And "the rest of us" may not be as many as you seem to believe, since both in this thread and in another one (starting
here), several people have voiced their concerns with the somersault jumps.
I agree with you that the more detail the better the experience, as that is a given. I was merely implying that I think most who are anticipating this game will be satisified if the overall package itself is solid and will not let details such as being able to do agile jumps in heavy armor detract from their experience with the game. I mean, if you use that logic you might as well keep on going and complain that you are able to turn into a dragon or perform magic. Afterall, how realistic is that? Far more unrealistic than being able to jump in armor, that's for sure, lol.
In regards to my statement in which I said, "the rest of us will enjoy the game", all I was referring to is the rest of us who do not let such intricate details dampen the overall experience. Which in my opinion will be most. As I think most just want an enjoyable, overall solid game.
However, I will say yet again, I am just speaking for myself here, as we all are. But, I do know that not everyone share these same concerns and those will agree that nit picking over such matters is indeed trival. Just because it may be so for you and a few others here, it does not mean that it will be a bad mark on the game for everyone else. That's all I'm saying. In that sense, it is all in the eye of the beholder.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the game. I hope we all do, as it looks very promising.
