Comparing the graphics via screenshots

[Ryans]

Yes ARR is looking to be a beautiful game with a lush environment, full of things to see and explore but the graphics are definitely a lot less realistic looking. Sure there are a lot more natural elements (such as sunlight) that come into play in ARR that aren't in 1.0 but the current ARR is not something that you could confuse with a picture of real life.

I'm sure they were sacrificed to make the game run at a smoother pace, but its still a downgrade.

When I looked at the 1.0 Alpha graphics.. the characters looked basically the same as the ones in 2.0

I think it's silly for anyone to make judgements before the game has been released.. but of course that's not going to stop stupid people from making stupid comments.
