Tormy-

Hm....it seems like that the devs will spend lot of time on creating a decent AI for Shogun 2. Nice stuff! [e digicons]:thumbsup:[/e]

[quote who="Bill_Door" reply="6" id="2638679"] Quoting Spooky__, reply 2 No, it's because Raven's post contains too many Code: html as far as I can see. Looking at the source, this looks like the problem to me too. [/quote] Raven has began to destroy the topic! [e digicons]:w00t:[/e]

[quote who="Denryu" reply="116" id="2638177"]I have from the very beginning felt like the graphics ahd almost a stained glass quality to them. I thought it was a pretty bold move and I personally like it a lot. Yes you are not going to be able to get as sharp of an image, things are going to be more muted and the coolness factor is in the gutsy move to go with an art look that looks like art, rather than something that reaches out of the monitor and gives your retinas a sugar high.

We have a topic about this already. https://forums.elementalgame.com/382835 Damn...for a second I thought that King's Bounty 2. is in development...:D

[quote who="TucoBenedicto" reply="95" id="2637507"] And yet you are still changing it. What's wrong with you? No one here is putting graphics before gameplay but we were speaking about the graphics engine and the overall looking of the game, so your priority list is pointless here. Please, stop trying to act like the old, experienced player who's taming the young and silly graphics whore. [/quote] It's quite funny to argue about something lik

Heh...weird. I think that the gfx looks much better now, compared to those old screenies. You see...this is a matter of subjective opinion. ;) PS. I am not trying to change the subject at all. Gameplay > Graphics in my "book of magic". :P

[quote who="dsk2293" reply="86" id="2637389"] Quoting Tormy-, reply 81 Well, EWoM's gfx/art style is quite unique, that's a fact....it's not for "everyone". Some people surely won't like it. Personally I like the art style, however....gameplay > gfx. So, why do you care at all? I guess good graphics isn't for everyone either? To me Graphics AND everything else = gameplay. But I'll stop complaining until I have actuall

[quote who="TS22" reply="19" id="2637081"] Even if we can't get it by the initial release, I really hope that this is something Stardock focuses on for an update or expansion. [/quote] I absolutely agree! :)

[quote who="TucoBenedicto" reply="78" id="2637130"]To be honest I really don't like most of the graphics so far, especially human units. I was wondering how much of this is placeholder and how much is pretty much final. P.S. I'm not talking about these screenshots up there, I'm referring to all new screenshots availbale today, even on IGN preview.

[e digicons]:pout:[/e] Hm, I have only one problem: I think that the game world looks kinda empty. There should be much more "objects" on the world map.

[quote who="BoogieBac" reply="47" id="2636198"] The graphics are the thing that makes me least excited about this game, and I'm even afraid it will ruin the whole experience for me.While I can understand disliking a different art style, I certainly hope it wouldn't RUIN a gaming experience (edit: here's an IGN article where we lay our artistic decisions on the table...if you're interested http://pc.ign.com/articles/101/1019369p1.html) But yeah, that's defaintly th
