I realy want in v13 a real good graphic engine but in the same time i dont wana look like wow/warhammer or like any other catroonish fantasy mmo's.Something like darkfall / mortal online or i jsut dont know but in the same time more mature and gore world.Something that come in my mind is the atmosfere in the fallout 1 and 2 ,a very mature enviroment with an equal graphic.

I am the Formless in all forms.Strenght si the only measure ,all things can be resolved with violence and blood share.

I think it will look closer to the latest Fallout title as of being realistic and gritty looking. Of course though the game play will be completely different. Image

I for one wouldn't mind it looking like WoW ^_^

It means your Computer doesn't have to be ridiculously powerful to run it, so more can play it, rather than just the super PC-Gamers with all the top spec PCs. War... War Never Changes...

That's not due to art work per-say. WoW is written on an engine that's a lot more forgiving when lowering or disabling certain features (aka doesn't drop game play value). Video rendering is a major part of the engine that was worked out well with WoW.

I wish more companies would work with engines or in creation of new ones under such as having a backward compatibility function. This allows a much greater audience to play the games and ultimately purchase them. Not everyone wants to throw out 80 dollars for a video card (and still be hitting barely passed medium settings) just to play a game. Instead they just want to slam down 49 dollars or so and play the game on their computer that isn't even 4 to 5 years old yet.

Though unfortunately hardware makers do not bode well with such ideas as they want to push out their latest of hardware for the latest high price. Its kinda like oil companies with vehicles. They could've been made better long before but what good would that be for the the oil companies? So its a give and take situation. We are just stuck in the middle. Luckily we do have companies like Blizzard to step out of that direction to the extent and try something a little more old school. Image

I dont think the game have to be cartoonish looking to not be power demanding. Well, one thing is for sure, fallout 1 and 2 did look cartoonish. However, 3D and 2D are two kind of diffrent things, two diffrent worlds really (if one is third person and other is isometric that is). When i was playing fallout, i didint really think although noticed the cartoonish graphics, the focus for me was the things that happend not as much how they happend as most of it was created with my mind becouse of the "limited" graphical defined visuals. Its harder to create immersion in 3D in my opinion. The Sarmatians
