Don't know if people noticed, but the current version has different reflection and lighting effects on different materials of clothing. For example, leather has a leather feel of reflection when clothes don't have as much of the harsh reflection, etc.

In 2.0 footage (please do not use the screenshots from the limit break trailer since it may well be a CG rendered graphic and not actual in game graphics), everything seems to have similar lighting effects - that everything looks like they're made from clothes.

For the benefit of the doubt, these points can be considered as touch ups and can be implemented later in the development stage. I'm just hoping they don't overlook this.

Yeah that's why I said they're probably banking on the shaders to take care of the rest and if that fails then well..so much for that.

Also despite popular belief, MMOs don't have to look like DC style games on the PS3, they can go further than that with the graphics since unlike the PS2, it has the power to do more with it's "limitations".

Stylized graphics are a fantastic way to make a game visually appealing without having to break the bank. Years later, games like XIII and Windwaker look great. Even IX looks pretty good with a more 'light hearted' feel, much better than VII and VIII at least.

the thing is, GW2 is like that, and it looks ugly/outdated...

Coming from someone who thinks XIV is art, i'm pretty sure you're legally blind.

I am color blind, so what!

You have such in a box thinking. It's not just me who sees it as art, it's the people who made the game itself! You do know they have to DRAW and CREATE the world, right? If you do not see that as art, you sir, are something else.

So everything that is created is art then? Keep believing that your gaming hobby is deep and meaningful. (protip: It's an MMO)
