StraddenStradden Managing EditorMember CommonPosts: 6,696

Tired of having to buy a collector's edition to get your hands on the artbook for a new MMO? Today, the peoople at Acclaim have shared the book for their recently launched MMORPG, The Chronicles of Spellborn with us in .pdf format.

The team over at Acclaim has provided us with this artbook, previously available only with a box purchase in the EU and available for the first time here in North America. The books contains over 150 pages of artwork that shows how the game came together visually from concept to final product.

Check out the North America Exclusive Artboook

Cheers,

    It looks great to me when zoomed out at 100 or 125%.

    I'll be the jerk who looks a gift horse in the mouth.

    It's small, it's blurry, and it's muddy. The text is barely legible. The details in the art are lost.

    You get what you pay for, I suppose. That is the whole principle behind Acclaim's business model...

    My thinking is because it's not a properly compiled digital artbook. They just took the file they used to print the art book in the boxed version (which is a small DvD sized case). Unfortunately, this means we have the sized down low res versions of the originals. It looks ok at 100%, but at a decent resolution, it also looks very small. I would like to see the devs step up and release it at full res, but its likely this whole booklet was put together and designed at this resolution, so it would take a whole other job to get a full res one, so it's likely not to happen sadly.

    Bans a perma, but so are sigs in necro posts.

    Well, i just had a good look through this and found it fascinating.  Thanks a lot. 

    We should be happy the effort was even made to let us see this - 80% of this artwork has never been shown elsewhere - thats concept art in its finest form there, loved every single drawing in them pages - and also a nice way to soak up a little bit of the Lore of Spellborn.

    Actually game looks fun and alike .... but about monthly fee .... I do not know how can various companies seel their chieckeens for the same price other companies sells their eagles?? If they really want to succeed they should lower monthly fees accordingly.
