Originally posted by altas Blows away anything I've played, unfortunately I couldn't play at max settings like yours look to be because of my shitty graphics card. The chick looks like Mila Kunis lol no GW2 won't kill WoW, but it's time to move on and quit worrying about those people still playing it. - eyelolled |

I just want to add my 2 cents on this "discussion". Guild Wars 2 art team is an AWARD WINNING team, check Daniel Dociu. |

Originally posted by colddog04 Some nice shots there. Not AoC though. The model in the 5th shot looks circa 2003, if you're honest. |

Originally posted by bigsmiff its crazy when you start looking at the details.. the wood, the gold work on the stall, the dohickies on the beams in the rafters. The wood work was the first thing I noticed and then the color difference in her hair.. then I started looking and saw the rest. SO nice for people who can't afford a great system but want pretty pictures of themselves!

Ok, I'll bite. Don't post a great deal but graphics are important to me. However, gameplay is also important. The best graphics I've seen in a screenshot (on this site anyway) were shots from Final Fantasy XIV. Never played it myself, but from a lot of the comments I read around the net, that game's grind and content totally blew chunks. I get sad when an absolutely fabulous graphics team gets stuck with mediocre content designers. Tera does have nice graphics, but again, the asian style grind and "huge honkin' weapons" just really turn me off.

I'll give you that games from our past tend to look different in our memories than they might in real life (I loaded up FF8 the other day and I swear I remembered it being prettier than that) but try to keep some perspective. Though, yes, AoC looks great on max settings. You'd never fit hundreds of people on a screen at once in AoC without blowing people's computers apart however, which is why the graphics in GW2 are lower. Even in its under-optimised state, it still functions better than a game like AoC would in the same situations. It's one thing to just not like the aesthetic quality of something, it's another thing entirely to not give credit where it's due, IMO.

Originally posted by gaeanprayer Definitely. The art direction in GW2 is absolutely stunning. On top of that, I've been in a few 50 v 50 + battles and my computer didin't explode. 40 fps is lower than I would like, but not unmanageable. The mixture between gaming realities and aethetics is spot on.
It's something that people talk about all the time. Graphics vs Aesthetics. While GW2 has some pretty solid graphics, it's the aesthetics of the game and the overall feel of the environment in game that blew me away. SWTOR is the greatest mmo ever! |

Originally posted by gaeanprayer Sorry, I should have said "Character model". Maybe 2004, that's when EQ2 came out, right? Final Fantasy XI, had character models that looked at least that good, that was from 2002. So, I was wrong. The character models are 10 years behind the times. When you have environmental models that are out line with character models, aesthetics and immersion take a hit. All your 2003 SS's are ports from console games, by the way. I'll let you figure out for yourself why that's not a valid comparison. |

Nah, the models look fine. Your assessment that they are from 2004 is just lame and boring. Everyone sees the difference. Hyperbole isn't getting you anywhere.

Originally posted by grimfall You're talking to a 3d modeler and animator, which is why your arguments are failing. I actually know what I'm talking about. As someone else already pointed out, your hyperbole only further diminishes your cred. GW2 models are not TERA, but they're in no way, shape or form 10 years behind the times. The requirement for GW2 models purely to get into their internship program is a polycount of 7500. Multiply that by how many people are on the screen, and add the polycount of the assets loaded on screen at once. Games 10 years ago were incapable of handling that, hence why EQ2 has since gotten a graphic update to get WITH the times now that both the technology and the majority of gamer rigs can handle it. Keep trying, though. "Forums aren't for intelligent discussion; they're for blow-hards with unwavering opinions." |
