Honestly - just look at them. Is this for real? They are from another era...

 

I understand the emotion behind this game, but let's be honest here.

horrible?

One giant map thats completely open without any invisible walls takes more from computers than tiny zones in linear tube like maps.

 

so it's Superb gameplay vs Superb graphics...I pick Superb gameplay.

 

 

The world will actually be clustered and there will be small loading times

Yup, Darkfall graphics sure do look terrible. 

 

Nice try troll. And just incase you're serious, you try running a game, with enabled physics manipulation, twitch combat, aiming bows and spells, collision detection, with an UNLIMITED number of people fighting, at any time or place in the game. Then add to that, that its an indie company. What do you expect? Age of Conan? Age of Conan can't even run 24 man battles before it crashes, and they had a lot more money to go on than this did. 

you're right, they dont look terrible. they look downright atrocious and they are insulting to the capability of graphics nowadays.

Based on the most recent videos, live showings, tv coverage, and screenshots....

I (and many others) are of the opinion that the graphics are way better than WAR, WoW so if those games are also insulting...i think DF is going to do just fine.

Funny how people find comfort in slegging down other games graphics :O

And especially WAR. WAR pretty much couldn't look anything else if they wanted to stay close to the IP. It's this whole deal of "like it or hike it".

Sure so can be said about every game. Though games like theese (DF) which have no lore reason or anything pre-set to determine how the game looks are different since they have all doors open.

Graphics does not need to be extravagant to be good, the WAY they are made to make an impression artistically speaking has to instead.

Even games in cell-shade can be really impressive graphically even though they are not, because the way the cell-shade is implemented in the game brings out the characteristics of the gameplay.

Funny how people have a one track mind and read what they want to read.

Where exactly did i "sleg" down WAR's graphics?  I like WAR graphics.  I played WAR, and WoW (similar graphics) and thought they were both enjoyable for the exact reason you gave about the IP.

However i think Darkfall's are WAY better.

It is possible for people to have a favorite game and NOT bash various other games completely.  Some people on this forum should try it sometime.  I quit WAR and obviously have negative things to say about the game, but overall, its a well made good game, just not for me and what i want in a mmo.

Since these grafics are so horrible, you sure do seem to spend a lot of time posting in here.  Hmmm,  I starting to think your Darkfalls #1 fan!

Looks like Morrowind.
