Don't give me no: 'Oh, Skyrim is a seamless open world and other games are not, so that is why it is allowed to look like a 6 year old game'.
Play crysis 2. Then come talk to me about the potentialities of console hardware.

It was like watching a step backward in graphical progress.
Where's the sun glare?
Why does WoW have better waterfall effects?
Why does Age of Conan still look better, despite it being an MMO?

You guys defending it are inept, utterly inept.

Different views and opinions m'dear. :blush:
Personally, I think it's pretty effing spiffy.

Gameplay and plot > graphics.

Nuff' said.

You forgot to mention that the game still has 8 more months of developing time to be finished.

Do try to bear in mind the game is still under development. There's still nine months before release.

Well.. Games concentrate on either:
Gameplay > Graphics
Graphics > Gameplay

I see this game as neutral.

Skyrim looks gorgeous. We don't have to defend it looking like a six-year-old game. Why? Because it doesn't. And the fact that it's open-world is a legitimate excuse. Crysis 2 does look better, but it's not nearly as open or expansive as Skyrim.

Ho look,another one of this kind of threads......

Yeah, well, they better push immersion through gameplay if they're gonna fail so badly at it graphically.
Dragon fight AI looked terrible too, better AI in Fear 1.

There are other topics discussing the video, use one of those please.
