People think that Mount and Blade has bad graphics but I think that game is beutiful. It is all personal Preferance, for example I love the Darkfall Graphics and style but I hate most of the animations. Will it stop me from playing the game? Damn you got to be kidding me, no of course it wont. Anyone here remember the running animations in SWG. Even look at UO the graphics were just fair for the time but I loved the art style.

EDIT* Noticed the first page was updated with the video. Thanks for the link.
My opinion of it...It shows the game's combat vs NPCs in more depth, and I'm not disapointed.
Character models blow ass, but who really gives a shit? This game will be revolutionary if it releases in a decent state.
On another note, where are the other beta players? One of my biggest concerns was wanting to see others in the game, through this video. No evidence of a closed beta from this, though.
Overall, fine. I'd give it a 5 of 10

Wow everyone bitching about graphics, I could care less about the graphics as long as they come thought on there set of features promised hell I would take UO style graphics if the game came thought.

Thank you for summing up the whole thread for me. I knew the thread would be litered with comments about graphics as soon as the in game footage started rolling in.. to me it's all good because
1. Means I'll have more people to play with (without them taking off and running into a tree at random, lol video laggers..) being that their computers can handle it.
and
2. Well, two is the same as one.. but I'LL be able to enjoy fighting in huge battles without having to take my video settings down a notch.
To be completely honest.. the graphics aren't THAT bad.
I agree with you, the graphics are actually stunning, when using Aventurine's scenic videos, as examples.
I'm a big atmosphere nut. I don't care if it looks like I'm a chicken when I run....As long as I'm able to see something amazing every day.
Anyone "that" hung up on graphics, is a child. Plain and simple. They just don't understand the idea of this game.

As I was reading your comment I remembered the part of the video that mentioned secret areas. Sounds like the game will offer us that amazing thing every day.. and if you let your imagination go wild for a minute.. I wonder how much ocean is there for us to explore in our bad ass ships.

I'd let my imagination run wild if I felt more optimistic about this game.
I really wish Aventurine would allow more information out, and more beta-testers in. Or even to just plain start the open beta, seeing as they seem to be on some double-secret probationary period in their closed beta.
When I think of Darkfall, I attempt to forget.

LOL at you both. I know what you're talking about though.
You'll be stunned once I mention...Click the video to the top left. That's the new video, and it can't be directly linked to, for some odd reason.
It's alright, not what I'd hoped for but definitely better than nothing.

Alright, found it.
Well, I have to agree the animation sucks balls. Really no kind way to put it. Graphics are liveable. But, um, where are all the testers that are in this beta? I seen one other player character ( I think it was anyway, could've been an NPC ) in a quick shot in the first part of the video. The rest was the deformed chick running around whacking at things and a few shots of holding a bow in first person view. Oh, and the same stand around NPCs I see in every other game.
...But, um, where are all the testers that are in this beta?...
Asleep, beta testers as you know are very organized players. They usually play between the hours of 1 and 3 in the afternoon...Never any other time.... Gosh!
But yeah, it is a disapointment; and lends credibility to the fact that this is likely a "very" closed beta. If that's the case, all those people saying Aventurine's not hyping this game, are lying to themselves.
News on a good point.........I think I found a 360 for a damned good price on EBay!

Lots of big claims, little in the way of video to show it.
I think I may wait til after the release and see what people say about it before buying it.
Sounds too good to be true.
Now playing: VG (after a long break from MMORPGS) Played for more than a month: Darkfall online, Vanguard SOH, Everquest, Horizons, WoW, SWG, Everquest II, Eve
Honestly graphics and all the other bullshit aside that Vid was Horrible.
Now i am not a DF hater or a Fanboy but you have to seriously start asking Questions like Zorvan said, Where are the other testers? Why is the Closed beta so secretive like? if there were other testers why is there no leaked footage? , now dont tell me that they are being little goody 2 shoes and sticking to the NDA or whatever it is called, if the there is some 1 testing this game because they love it surely they would leak some vids, to boast about how cool the game is, or how polished it is, or how much of a Turd it is or just to brag about being in the Beta, hell i would do with some screens or some 1 just talking about there exp in game.
Now like i said i dont hate the game but we need to be realistic here, why is it that we have waited all this time since the Last Vid to see something as half assed as that, that Video was no better than the Official Video released not so long ago, i want to see PROPER game play let's see a fight from go to woe, lets see interaction with an NPC from beginning to END.
Im not entirely sure if this game is Pushing me away more or what it is doing because all i am feeling to be Honest is Sorry....I'm feeling sorry that i think a lot of you guys out there that have put in a lot of time following this game are going to get let down, not saying you will, just saying that I feel this way.
I agree with you, the graphics are actually stunning,
Ya stunningly horrid.
That video looks like a Alpha built by a bunch of amateurs back in the year 2000.
What a joke. I feel sorry for the people who followed this for 7 years.
Apparently you didn't watch the video. Review it again and note that the only thing sub-par, graphically was the viewing distance, and the character models/animation.
Really, are you that blind?
EDIT* Have you ever played WoW by chance? If so, you'll note that Darkfall's graphics are slightly better, and character models slightly more realistic. In realizing this, you might also realize you've been playing a game released in 2005, not 2000 which looks worse than Darkfall. So yeah, before you speak, learn to create an actual argument.

The video was dreadfull... so much time waiting for autorization and the holy word of Tasos to post it and thats what it is a pos. How can a company approve of this video to show off their game... unless they have nothing else to show.

Sorry to burst you're bubble pal but world of warcraft graphics, level design, animations, water FX, Shadows and pretty much everything else are on a totally different level than that junk.
I've a feeling that the only mob they've working is the goblin, doing that crazy fucking hit and run bullshit.
So far, it's the only mob we've seen. Which is scary, thinking that the entire gameworld needs to be filled. A million goblins that take 10 minutes to kill, each...Sounds like a blast?

Yea, I agree. Only thing I keep hearing is how smart the goblins are. "Hey, look this goblin is running away!! He's smart!!". Seems to me the only zone they have even remotely finished is the starting area with those super smart goblins.

Please tell me I missed something in the thread.
