I could finally watch the video!! Most of it don't look "cartoonish".. only 1 or 2 shots.
I saw the trailer finally. I don't even get why people are complaining I thought it looked decent enough.
I don't think it is cartoonish it's just the lighting. All the characters look dull and washed out like the lighting is blowing out detail in the faces so there is little shadow or detail.The current version can get like this as well in certain lighting conditions during the day.
I like the way it looks but that's just me. No issues here in my book.
I didn't see anything, I saw some picture someone posted of a video that looked fake. Until I see the video footage and what they say about it I won't believe it.
I see the link now I will watch it. Though on the video so far I see no mention of PS3 unless it says it at the end.
Different people just prioritize and care about different things. That is the way of the world.
Some people think the perfect car is one that gets great gas mileage because that's what's important to them; while other people will drive big gas guzzlers because they want power and speed.
Some people prefer fast, responsive gameplay first and foremost; while others appreciate subtle improvements in graphics quality and animation.
There is no right or wrong.
Part of the reason this forum exists is to allow players to give feedback on what is important to them. Obviously some people care about the graphics quality and are expressing their concern on what they see as a serious downgrade to the game they play.
Ultimately it is SE's decision to make, regardless of all the hate, name calling, and mean spirited comments that get posted here.
I prioritize graphics and immersion, so I am expressing my opinion here in the hopes that SE takes it as one small vote from a dedicated player who likes the level of detail that was built into 1.0.
If ARR turns out to be a big enough disappointment in the graphics department, I'll just have to decide whether or not this is still a world I want to be part of.
