His suggestion is that Planeshift is attractive to the furry community.  I'm not saying he's right.

In terms of skins, culture, body movements, etc, enkidukai have recieved the most code and artwork, and they seem to recieve new things before the other races.  They are the only race to have their own city and their own language, and they are further subdivided into seperate tribes.

You can say that new features will come with time and development, but Planeshift has always been a game in development and will be a game in development for quite some time.

Not true anymore, Kran has its own city now as per 0.4 Steel Blue. Then again, Enkidukai is still only one of twelve possible races, so I don't think I would label it as a furry game since none of the others are animal-like.

Live Life today, Because tomorrow is but a dream and yesterday only a
memory!

The only Negative i find with this game (not my personal opinion either) is that the Graphics are just 2 old and thus not many people even trying it because visually it just does not appeal.

There are a number of games out there that have outdated (or even 2d!) graphics and yet are immensely popular.  Maple Story is probably the best example, even though it's such a horrible game IMO.

Thought I would mention that as of yesterday, PlaneShift is using Crystal Space 1.4's terrain2 engine now, which is the part that supports this feature (although PlaneShift doesn't use paging landscape as of yet). Also, terrain2 supports the more advanced lighter2 engine for more natural lighting effects of landscapes.

That doesn't mean terrain2 itself is without bugs; usually PlaneShift is the first to try out new features in Crystal Space, and due to the size of the user base this is good for the engine that a decent number of players are consistently finding the flaws in it and pushing the engine to its limits. Another notable game that uses Crystal Space is Yo Frankie! aka "Project Apricot" from the Blender Institute.
