umm yea there is ...

if you cqnt see the improves meants in the vids there you must be blind it also cant be so good that it kills pcs when in mass battles

i don't know but did you checked the latets videos, you could see the characters so decidie for yourself.

For me it is enough and gameplay>graphic

However they constantly improved animations in DF1.0

Yes, it looks better now.

The character models and animations improved a lot for UW. Well besides Mahirim faces, we're calling them "cat people" now, as they no longer look like wolves.

But for most players, gameplay > graphics. UW's graphics look good, especially when you keep in mind this game needs to perform well in large scale siege and naval action.

I seem to have an opposite view of most gaming companies.

In my opinion, diversity along with great music, sound effects and great animation brings far more bang for the buck than great graphics.

Id much rather have diverse, smooth animations than great graphics.

But I still really enjoyed Darkfalls world and look forward to exploring the Reboot.

I'd rather have engaging gameplay, mechanics, and systems that are fun and innovative over animations.

But hey, the pandas in World of Warcraft look great.

No doubt lol. Anyone who says graphics are what matter in a game are dillusional.

Anyone that thinks any game can have 1996 graphics etc must live in cloud cuckoo land. Maybe 10-12 years ago that saying was true but not now.

umm you do know most fantasy game swing those big weapons unrealisticly right

It looks better, but am I the only person concerned about the stiffness? Characters doing these kind of moves should not only move their upper body.

Said no sane person ever.... nothing agianst Panadas because the Popori in Tera look amazing. Blizzard is just a company making millions a year off a dead game with fans clinging to it because they are scared to lose it.
