New Video Shows Remade Westfall Using the Unreal 4 Engine

YouTube's DanielL is back with his first update in six months. He has been recreating iconic World of Warcraft locations using the Unreal 4 Engine. Previously, he had created videos of Goldshire and other locations in and around Westfall. This time, the video shows locations in and around the Dead Mines parts of Westfall. It's a gorgeous look at what "could be". See for yourself and let us know what you think!

A Vanilla WoW remake with Unreal 4 engine would be a huge success for sure!
Well done

Kinda obvious that a remake in a new engine will never happen

That does not look like WoW though. It looks good but it's not WoW. The look WoW has is not only about graphics its a mood,a colour palette, a style . Not quite sure how to explain it.

Technically, it looks pretty good, but, it only looks a bit vaguely like the areas from WOW, the dimensions are poor and its not clear if this is a limitation of the art assets used, its not as good as the original in that sense, and honestly, without being told that it was meant to be a representation of WOW's westfall/moonbrook etc, you wouldn't realise it from the video.
Whether or not its suitable for WOW honestly i don't know, although with work maybe it can be improved ?

wesjr

I disagree, I would have know it was westfall, it appeared to be pre cata though.

cheyane

I think the music goes a long way to identifying it easily. How can anyone forget that haunting music ?

It seems like most of you haven't played WoW in a while. That video captures Westfall pretty damned accurately using Unreal. The reason your mind doesn't see it is because of the realistic lighting which affects the color and textures.

I admire this person's dedication to reversioning these parts of WoW. They have been brilliant so far & very well done. I'd have to consider resubscribing or to subscribe to that version pending it's content too.

I like his rendition of Elwynn Forest better

yea.. no it would not.

a) blizzard wouldn't use an external engine, unless they buy it.
b) success is defined on what, selling numbers? you couldn't sell it, no success :P

and last but not least,
c) the reason WoW is what it is actually IS it's engine. weather you guys like it or not does not actually matter.

Looks great but Blizzards needs to

. Remake the UI so add'ons aren't really required to make it look nice, list quests on the main map make it easier without use of add-ons.

. Update Character Models like the korean games to look more real not cartoon .

Id pay to play vanilla rendered on this engine.

pinktailz

such a waste of time and creativity

Xarko

Doesnt look that great tbh

Wizardry

It looks good but bland.Reason is the scenes are just not very intense and the mood lighting actually ruins the scene.Example you can't have yellow lighting,it makes everything look yellow.Also too much yellow/brownish color in every scene.If you ever notice Asian games don't do a lot of work in their games but they add a lot of vibrant colors,it gives the illusion of looking better.
