"One shots" over on Massively is a column that shows a screenshot once a week. This week was Mortal Online. The tiny person, huge bloodstain and streaming sunlight conveys a real sense of forboding.

    I don't believe that's a screenshot. 

     

    I'm a bit skeptical here.

     

    I've played Mortal Online a lot and I don't remember seeing this place before.  I know it's "North" of Fabernum but I've been up there and I haven't seen this cave.  

    Never trust a screenshot or a youtube video without a version stamp!

    A very nice screen. Quite atmospheric.

    Ok.... what supposedly died there? A 2000 liters bag of blood conserves? The whole cave is empty and boring, the dude doesn't throw a shadow, the textures are so 2003, especially the blood. And if you want something to look "foreboding", as in exciting, don't make the main actor walk from the dark into the light, but the other way around.

     

    A photo of a brick with a snail on it couldn't excite me any less.

    I'm not impressed ok?

  • deathshrouddeathshroud Member Posts: 1,366

    yea i guessed that, but still it doesnt change the fact that the pic was used on massively or whatever as pic of the day/week or whatever which gives it some merit. Obviously thoguh you just hate anything mo related even 1 screesnhot is enough for you to start flaming it from every possible angle when most would consider it a ncie screenshot and move on.

    I think  you are reading wwwaaaaay to much into this.  Its simply a cool screenshot (IMO).  Talking about a body to blood ratio.  lol, I suppose if its a giant panda bear with claws, it won't phase your 'realism' sense at all, but to have 3 liters of blood where there should be two, pushes the bounds of the imagination.  Its simple a cool pic or it isn't.

    Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar...

    Regardless of the state of the game, still a nice pic. Just my opinion...

    That is a nice screenshot regardless of what the game is set on. Looks very nice.
