"Adrift" becomes "Remember Me"!

Capcom have announced a new IP, that isn?t really a new IP at all ? it's simply a rebranding of an IP that was announced last year, which might technically make it new, so long as they did the official ?Born Again IP? ceremony. It was originally known as Adrift, and while that was merely a teaser and a concept when first announced, it's now come to life under the name of Remember Me.

The game is being developed by French studio Dontnod, made up of former Heavy Rain, Splinter Cell and Rainbow Six developers. The game takes place in Neo-Paris, 2084. The player takes on the role of Nilin, a former elite memory hunter with the ability to break into people?s minds and steal or even alter their memories. Arrested, and with her memory wiped clean Nilin must now set out on a mission to rediscover her identity.

An impressive ten-minute gameplay video. Basically, if you want to get a rough idea of what this game is going to be like, it's a sort of mix of Mirror's Edge, Assassin's Creed, Deus Ex and Dishonored, with a third-person view. The middle of the footage shows how innovating the concept is.
Get into your target's mind, mess up his memories, make him feel guilty, have him commit suicide. This seems to be the whole game concept. It reminds me a lot of Dishonored (developed by another French studio), which enables the player to kill their targets in a very innovating way.

It could turn out alright, but it's like the developers have got together, drawn a list of some of the best games, then ripped off the best elements of them.2012-08-16 20:36:00

At this point it feels futile trying to pin down a game's influences. People say this is influenced by Deus Ex and Dishonored. Well, Dishonored itself was inspired by Deus Ex and Thief. Deus Ex was heavily influenced by Ghost in The Shell, Blade Runner, System Shock and the Sprawl trilogy. The ability to go into someone's mind and change things around seems to be a nod to Inception.

Dishonored and Remember Me look cool as hell, but these themes and gameplay elements aren't new, nor innovative. They have been around for years.
