Not too shabby at all. Nice to see that fairly recently MMORPGs have improved considerably in their graphics because sometimes it's a bit of a pity that they can look plain ugly at times.
There are THAT many landmarks, there is SO much detail everywhere.
<3
I'd also check out the lake near Sifhalla if you have the chance (You'll go by there to kill a notorious monster anyways in the Norn-ish quests :])... Look down into it D:!
Yeah! I guess there's several dragons hidden "sleeping" across the lands.
Ah c'mon Bert, a suave fellow such as yourself shouldn't ever rack up Death Penalty. :(
when there's a mob of monsters that average 4-8 levels higher than you it can get tough sometimes :p
Alright, just don't let it happen again. :-)
I try not, and the first one I had no insignias or runes on my armor at that time so that hurt a little. And that build was so so compared to my new flashing blades build.
Personally I think Oblivion and most other modern games are better graphically - but if you're talking MMORPG's only, then I can't comment.
Still, I'll wager Oblivion is as large or close, because any TES usually is at least 10 times the size of most single player games at the time of release.
Guild wars is HUGE. 3 continents the first was just nearly doubled with GW:EN. not including the underworld and such. Lots to see and go in this game.
Holy :skull::skull::skull::skull:.
I'm impressed.
This is also on my craptastic laptop.

is the world without the newest exspansion.

is the first games area with GW:EN added
... oh, and the henchies are so bored now they can be seen conversing >_
Ps - Cynn: You Spoony Bard!
psps: Screenies and videos all look so awkward on this PC, hope they look alright on yours :3... I have a high-end PC, so playing GWEN is a treat <3 (and does not error like it did on my old PC >_>).
I'm ordering my Mobo tomorrow so I should have my wonderful desktop up in a week or so ^_^
Looks like typical over-bloom-effect GW to me. :p I'm sorry Bert, by today's standard, GW doesn't have that great graphics. And by last generation's standards, it had poor art direction.
Of course, this is all my opinion, but you know. :p
But it's OK Bert, 'cause I love you.
I'm sorry but I can't dissagree with you more :( I think it is by far the best looking MMO or atleast the best I've every played. I think the art is amazing and everything is so damn pretty.
Your opinion is wrong. :DQuote:

Do you mean like the lighting? I love the light effects of GW. I thinks that's what makes it so pretty.
Don't listen to Omecle xD...
... Prophecies was very steriotypical when it came to art-style >_>...
Seriously. I am just bitter that I don't want to buy all those expansions and have no one to play with. :DQuote:

I'm always playing and I can help you with most anything. I can hook you up with some weapons and help get outta ascalon quick.
so i just got GW eye of the north i.ve been playing a little but not so much it seems to be a pretty good game so far :D
just wandering if someone would be willing to help me im playing the first GW to be rellesed (the one with the siedge) so if anybody would be so kind to help a newbye out my name is gau the wild (if thats possibly havet made it yet) i.ve played a little at a freinds house so i know the basic :D
wait, what standalone do you have? GW:EN is an exspansion.
Maybe when I get the money. I just spent over $500 on books for university. :(
Yay ^^
I look forward to playing Factions/Nightfall with yee~
Maybe he got the Platinum Edition?
I can help you out~ as I've been to pretty much every non-NF/GW:EN area (I'm working on that though :p...).
You can even join the guild I'm one of the officers of (Actually, I insist >_
I just looked up the prices on the three expansions (I only have the original). They are $80AUD each!!! Omg, so expensive...
They reason that they are like that is because two of them are standalones, The expansion you can get for about 60AUD? (50 even :3!)
But you will want at least Factions or NF before it, way to much content to miss out on. (Like in factions, you pretty much get a PvPer's dreamboat of stuff to add to the PvP areas, sorta..., along with an up to standard storyline like NF) (NF Has the in-depth Hero system... and well... a bunch of other goodies ;])
uhm i dont know what its called but its the one with the chars:D and i would happyly join your guild im only lvl 2 at the moment since i got it pretty late yesterday....
oh yes i have the plantium edition
Wait, so the expansion versions cost less as long as I have the original?Quote:

The Standalones are:
Prophecies - One you have.
Factions - Oriental atmosphere.
Nightfall - North-African atmosphere.
The expansion costs less because it isn't as big as the others (well, if we exclude the dungeon content...), and that it really only adds High-end advanced anythings, for people who own any/multiple standalones.
Once you are level 20 you can take a quest from Location: x, and be on yahr way~~
PS: Might not want to read to far into those articles if you can be bothered...
On a side note I started a new guild today.
Could you please join Protectors of the Mist (Even temporary~~~).
I'd like you to out-class our Leader Abree.
xD.
Abree is like... Chuck Norris of GW.
edit: lol. That took a bit.
