The way this game looks I don't think graphics will have much effect on the game. They do look great and it looks like it will be a really fun game to play. I bet this game is going to be really big.

Graphics looked great a few years ago, but to todays standards (Lord of the Rings Online, even Everquest II) they are sub par in my opinion.  But, I agree with the above, that the game will rock regardless of the graphics.  I love the feature set, the setting, and the scope of the game.  I can't wait to try it, I just wish it would come out soon, while the graphics can at least hold their own for a while longer, cuz after a time, there absolutely is a need for a visual upgrade (Anarchy Online is a good example of a great mmo that I can't play because it's horrible to look at).

Anyone remember the graph's from VG,Lotro early closed beta's ??.FE isn't even in alpha yet, they have to get the mechanics down first..

 FE is one of only three jet to be released games that I have any real interest in..(note) I said I, as in me..not you

Looks like the game has come a long way graphically.  Next few years are gonna get pretty interesting for MMORPG's in general  Slowly [but thankfully] MMO's are breaking away from the cookie cutter gameplay and this is one of those games that's doing it in a big way.

For me the visual graphics of this game look good enough. However, there is something that looks unnatural to me in all the screenshots with the character models. They appear out of proportion, maybe like they have overlarge heads and the arms are too short?

It must be from constant cloning.

I personally think the graphics are fine for the genre of the game.  Post apocalyptic, the graphics will also feel tarnished and add a layer of emersion to the gameplay for some.

Your LotRO screenshot was clearly done in a rather low video setting.

well 4+ years in developement can lead to dated graphics...that said this game is still at the top of my radar, even though i havent really seen any more from it than i did 2+ years ago when i discovered it

Check over at the official site, www.fallenearth.com. They put out an update in the Question of the Week section almost every week. There are/will be a bunch of new articles out about FE because of their exposure at the recent GDC.

This game is coming, and is very far along in development.

This game is looking to be like the Fallout series to me but thats a good thing but skill based and not levels Ill be waiting for this game to come out And one last thing to stay on subject graphics should never be the big worry of it selling it should be immersive keeps you glued to the game with lots of content and a sandbox style of gameplay graphics have always been last on my list looking back to games that were always fun to play and still play like X-COM not-so great graphics but the gameplay was what drew me to it and keeps me playing someitmes for old times sake the others in the series were so-so but the first a classic and also one of those few games in the 90's that PC Gamer gave it high review cant remember it was above 95% or so but ....
