Did we not watch the same video? The graphics looked excellent. That spell that sucked up all the nearby objects like crates and barrels and whirled them around was very nice.
The animations look fine. Better than fine, they look great I think. And the sailing aspect is excellent, it really adds to exploration.
Everything about it looks better than TW1

Bwahahaha, graphis look awful, like bad cartoon. Look the feet of this picture: http://www.insidetwoworlds.com/gallery/showimage.php?i=1596&c=30
Looks like freaking disney graphics, like in shitty Oblivion. The first TW was probably worst freeroam RGP ever and I don't think this will be any better.

The animations look average, the graphics are cartoonish and decent. My point was that I didn't care, as long as they fix/improve the gameplay.
EU devs lack attention to detail imo, even if they have some great ideas. Maybe it's the lack of a big budget or lack of time, but with most of teh EU RPGs I get the feeling they are rushed.

After digging through tons of TW 2 movies and screenshots I have to agree with u.
Also I might add that it's kinda sad to see that nowadays, kids wan't to see fireworks instead of a good roleplaying game.
Who cares about the story or gameplay aspects, let's analyse if the tree is "cartoonish" or not.

Whats wrong with that shot? Looks 100x better and more complex than that bland emofaggot from Arcania. The clipping error with the feet is a bit clumsy but excusable and may or may not be fixed in the final.

The idiot looks like freaking oversized miniature gay troll.

So judging the graphics and commenting about their lack of detail makes us "kids wanting to see fireworks"?

Looked like a step up from TW1 but thats not saying much. AI looked pretty bad, enemy's just standing around waiting to die, UI/inventory looked bad, bloom was bad, graphics were mediocre ...
Not that i care about graphics, gameplay is way more important.

The AI looked bad coz it was an early unfinished version if memory serves right.
The inventory looked fine what was the problem??, graphics mediocre?? They look FANTASTIC! What RPG has better graphics than these? !?

It's that the inventory is quite gamepad oriented like say Oblivion, Fallout etc.
I don't really mind it though.

Gamepad oriented?? To me it looked like any other pc RPG inventory, are you sure?
I'll try to find / capture some screens but I don't recall it looking anything like Oblivion.

Yeah, Oblivion was a bad example, it's inventory was 100 times worse than the one in the above pics.
I think the icons are TOO large, you're right about that.
But since I'll play it on a 40" tv monitor, that could be a good thing
Well, we'll see, nice point though, I hadn't noticed the icons were that large
Well..actually thae video I posted is 720p..and I'll play it @ 1080p..so the icons will look smaller
Your links are @ 1024x768 only, but I think they're large, yeah.
I'll try to find some 1080p inventory screens.

I guess it can go either way.
Nehrim is designed by Europeans too, and we all know how THAT game compares, especially to all the shovelware being released lately (translation: it's better than many commercial projects...)
Drakensang was also a good (commercial) project
And, as far as TW2 is concerned,
As long as they fix the rediculously easy combat in TW1 (all you had to do was dodge a monster's attack every 4 seconds and you would never get hit unless it was ranged or mob attacks), then i'll definitely be interested. In TW1, you could survive EVERY SINGLE 1v1 encounter if you could heal all your HP at once, and not be 1 hit KO'd from full health, without ever needing to dodge...(the final boss died in what, 8 seconds, after guzzing alchemy boosts?)
And alchemy stat boosts need to NOT be linear. Increasing your Strength from 400 to 5000 just by downing a bunch of stacked potions you created, or raising your HP from 10,000 to 60,000 by downing a ton of wolf hearts is LOLoverpowered....(yes, I am fully aware you don't HAVE to down them...but then what's the point of looting ingredients and having them ? Not like you're using an exploit or something...)

Also the artistic design is much better, but not as good as in Gothic 3. TW2 looks like cut&paste cartoonish shitfest from 5 years ago.

Hmm that sounds like you played it before the megapatch, when you still had unlimited stacking? Only place where it felt a bit easy was just before the river and then it was the bamboo forest with scorpions and I had my hands full.
Anyhow, played with sword and don't thing boss was 8s
Something nice, Royal Edition is 81. in top 100 game sales in Amazon. Normal version is 38th, just behind Fallout: New Vegas.

You're clueless, G3 had quite weak design, not as as good as, for example, G2 which looked more coherent and hand crafted, the design in G3 was quite shitty compared to most games i'd say.
I think TW2 looks really nice, the enviroments and architecture is one of the best and most varied i've seen in a RPG. i could care less which has the most advanced shaders..

I haven't played TW2 game so I'll stay away from comparing it to Arcania but to say that Arcania has superior *anything* is just ridiculous. | You can see that from relesed press material already. But feel free to try it first and confirm then.

Gothic 3 is still reference design when you have to have immersion and hand crafted design. Beautiful scorching deserts, cold and dark winters, dence forests, great castle desings. Faring castle design is still best in any RPG-game.

Haha have you even played Gothic 1 & 2? Both of them, especially 2, had faaar superior level design than G3. G3 was utter crap in that regard.
