In America I have bad teeth. If I lived in England my teeth would be perfect.
The most important part of reading is reading between the lines.

Compare to other non-mmo games the textures are quite weak though.

^Character Bio.
BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.
Friend of mine showing off his level 35 shiny gear:
And his new shield...
Various incarnations of my Dwarf Champion:
Damn! Wrong quote.
That's because it's the graphics engine from Asherons Call 2, a game that was released some four (?) years ago, a bit tweaked but still the same graphics engine.
(they should have used the Unreal 3 graphics engine)
Heh... I hate it when quotes get mixed up too.
I never knew LOTRO used the AC2 engine - I thought it was the DDO engine and stopped right there. I gotta say though, I think that was a wise move by Turbine - they knew exactly how it worked, all the main engine bugs were mostly fixed, and they had all the tools needed to create this brilliant world.
Vanguard used the Unreal engine. While the graphics are nice in VG, the system specifications to run the game at top notch are not (and yes, i wish I had that kind of hardware, heheh). But to be honest, I prefer the way LOTRO looks with the good old engine it's using right now, even though VG's graphics can be stunning too. I mean, any game that can put out quality like this:
....is bloody good in my book. And the fact that this screenshot: http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/3518/scenicpurdygwi0.jpg is still my desktop background ever since I first saw it (thanks Hairysun!), is a great example of LOTRO's artwork... I mean... it looks like a painting to me...
Anyway... my apologies to the OP for the slight deviation of topic.

The DDO engine is the AC2 engine, a bit tweaked but still the same engine and even more tweaked for LotRO.
They did very nice work with the clouds and the ripple effects on the water, I will give them that but the graphics engine is still a bit outdated these days.
Click on the "My Profile" tab at the top right on your screen and then go to the Avatar option, maximum size is 80x80 pixels but it will get shrunk if its too large.
Good luck with your new avatar.
Mine got a little bit shrunk I think.
here is my guy his current armor is pretty strange.
