my computer is old and if i put it on 'balanced' i can't do anything but stand around and look. even though, the game looks fucking good. I salivate for the day (week or two i hope) that i actually get to play on balanced or higher instead the lowest setting.

WoW still looks good, but after playing it for 2+ years it feels empty to me. I just can't feel it anymore.



and i'm happy with the default UI...all the UIs i've seen so far just seem like random shuffling and changing for the sake of changing. There's a few things I would like individually, but I can't find them. Like a % for the xp bar...


I'm wondering if anyone familiar with VG xml can tell me if things like WoW's "Clique" are possible?

I do think the emphasis on realism helps the environment a great deal though.
In wow, I appreciated some of the scenery, but usually in the same respect
one might be particularly impressed with the background in a certain scene of
an anime or disney animation. It's impressive, just not breath-taking. VG, on
the other hand, has had more than a handful of truly breath-taking moments
for me.

Personal preference is all, I suppose.
Well my main problem with the VG craphics has to do mostly with the character art (PC and NPC). Most of the landscape is amazing, with the exception of certain trees and bushes (ugh). However, at least for me, it's the characters that really embody the style of the game...or that's what pulls me in anyhow. It's likely why EQ2 never seemed too attractive to me...still, I do like what they've done with the Raki. The more stylized the race in VG, the better it looks imo...which is why the Gnomes and Goblins are likely my favorite in terms of looks.

Just gets old and a lot of us are sick and fucking tired of it.
I absolutely agree with you. There isn't a single person on this board that doesn't know how the vocal opponents of Vanguard feel about the game. It is beyond old, and it doesn't need to be said anymore. Why is it that people can't understand that not everyone likes the same things, and people will always have different opinions. We get it, some of you hate the game for x, y or z reason. We don't need to hear it for the 12624th time.
