Official Screenshots & Desktop Backgrounds

This is looking great. You can tell Mythic is doing the graphics as the textures look alot like the Catacombs expansion for DAoC.

Cant wait.

Wait a minute, is a guy SITTING on a bed in that one picture??

**Maddux** · 23rd December 2006, 07:24 PM

Yes, it appears someone is sitting on the bed. Thats much better than wetting the bed.

*walks in the middle of the conversation and hears Maddux say...*

"...wetting the bed."

"Dammit Maddux, you promised you wouldn't tell!!"

*notices everyone looking at him weird.*

Just go ahead and kill everyone.

Is that the Fountain of Life in the upper left. I rarely complain but that does look like a urinal in this shot, whatever it is! Oh and that would be in screenshot 10.

All in all I like what I'm seeing seems to be a good compromise between the 2d and 3d crowds.

I don't see any fountains of life. If you're talking about that white object in the "painting room", it looks to me like a covered chair (that is, a chair covered in cloth) with some nightshade on it.

The polar bear rug in screenshot #6 looks...gah. I can't say the word that naturally comes to mind.

Scales and size relations still seem very wrong.

Upright house addons such as the fireplace which have always had a notch on their back side to fit against a house wall properly now no longer meet up to the wall that way. It's like they're simply taking all the good, 2D art and feeding it into something that just converts it into polygons. I'm trying to figure out why they simply don't use the original 3D design renderings that all the 2D art is based on. They probably don't have it anymore..or anyone who knows how to manipulate it.

Still we loom in the mists as the ages roll away, And we say of our folk, "they are here!" That they built us and they died and you'll not be knowing why, Save we stand on the bare plains of Wiltshire.
