Unreal is a great engine but it's boring if everyone uses it. From the trailer this engine brings a huge amount of capability. I think Dokev will be a huge hit. Looks like there is an amazing variety to the gameplay mechanics which is exactly what is needed in any big open world game to keep it fresh and interesting for the duration of a long game.

|| Unreal is a great engine but it's boring if everyone uses it ||
Exactly ... though its a great a boon for many devs, big or tiny, ... but the constant use & endless stream of UE4 titles just gets a bit boring, especially if they use use same assets or stock lighting.
This was even more during the smudgy, bloom-filled UE3 days.
Hence proprietary engine(s) or Cry Engine/Unity/Source/idTech based projects always instantly grabs my attention.

There is a very specific look to most unreal games which makes games not using it really stand out especially when the tech is impressive like this or Decima.

Dokev is true next gen graphics imo, not just resolution and framerates dumped into old games.

Wow. Considering how great and polished the game looked way back when it was revealed, that's quite the wait. I mean, if they need the time then they need it. I still can't believe it'll look that good on release honestly lol.

Disappointing, because it’s my most anticipated game in recent years, and what they’ve already shown looked absolutely amazing and VERY ambitious, but if they feel they need the time to deliver the game they want, then good.

I do hope they’ll do a cool new presentation soon, cause we haven’t heard or seen anything new about DokeV for far too long,

Why Pearl Abyss left medieval meadows for a modern metropolis with DokeV

DokeV was one of the most bewildering but also fascinating announcements from Gamescom 2021. From Pearl Abyss, the team behind medieval games such as Black Desert and Crimson Desert, DokeV was a very sharp turn into a contemporary setting for a studio that has only build medieval landscapes before. Now, we have learned a little bit about why the studio decided to build a modern urban playground, instead of their third large countryside landscape.

Speaking in the latest edition of Play magazine, Pearl Abyss founder Kim Dae-il, says the studio has been “working on medieval fantasy games for a long time, but we wanted to try creating a unique experience with DokeV”.

The announcement (actually, there was already a trailer out for the game back in 2019) looked absolutely amazing, so good that many doubt it’s in-game footage, and the city they showed looks gorgeous and lots of fun to traverse around. The prospect of a SP ‘Pokemon’ type of game in that world is very exciting.

This game looks dope as hell. Very excited to try it out on PS5 with Dualsense support.

Well when i Saw this i was think about Pokémon...with this look!Then i remember that Nintendo will never have a system capable of this looking graphics.Game Looks very good but needs a smoother framerate.

This doesn't even look like a real game tbh, more like a fever dream. Looks overwhelming but I'm interested.
