graphical questions

[happylizard]

i do not know if i am right ot wrong....
1st...i compared the pictures between TQ and D3...i i found it is interesting that the graphic of character in TQ is better than D3... i can only watch the game play video and trailer on the D3 website.....
based on the wizzard trailer, i can tell that the graphic of chacter in that trailer is same as ps2 graphic. u can even see the edges of the zombie's arm or shoulders....very obviously......
maybe the graphic of D3 is at the same level as WOW....which means worse than lineage 2.....


by the way, i hope the cloth design will be different from TQ.....because in TQ, the cloth is a shell...no matter who wears it...the looking is the same...it makes me feel like i am playing ninja turtles......hahahahahhah.....

Blizzard has the tactic of aiming at less-than-high-end computers, which is quite sensible actually. TQ on the other hand, probably had too good-looking graphics for its time, which only a small percentage of pc users could play at high settings.

Sure, D3 looked pretty dated even before they announced it a few years back, but it's not because they can't afford to make a high-end gfx game, but because they choose not to.

Yup, which adds to the universality of the games they put out. A huge range of gamers can throw the disc in and enjoy the game without choppiness or lag.

I believe it was mentioned somewhere that GD will run better on most machines compared to TQ, which of course is good news for a lot of us.

yes, it is said so, but as a recent report, D3 can be nicely ran, under i7, gtx 285......that is not a low-blah blah blah....

oh by the way, add the paypal method to donation part, some people would prefer that payment method for donation, like me..........heeey...

because they are using an engine several years ago (an old engine), and our pc is getting better much faster than their engine development.....
i remember that the TQ engine is independly developed by iron lore.....maybe i am wrong.
