Gah... Calling those graphics "stylized" doesn't help. That's like somebody creating a technically and compositionally ****ty song and calling it avant-garde. When I first heard Dragon Age II was announced my first reaction was, "Wha.... so soon!?" Well, these screenshots are certainly evidence that they haven't been taking their time. It looks like they had some scrapped/left-over garbage from the original and mashed it together to form a new game. But uh... Yeah, sorry to get all negative there. Um. I'm sure the gameplay will be great. :/

What's worse, Greg Zeschuk commented to the press it would look "super hot".
It looks like Crysis on low.

Judging from the backlash, I don't think there's a phrase he regrets using more in his life now.

[Endurium]

Interesting shots, but I'd have to see the game running my settings on my computer. At the moment I'd say Age of Conan looks better.

[errant_knight]

Y'know, I'm actually starting to feel sorry for these folks, and given how much I don't like most of the changes, that's really saying something.

Hell, Starcraft II look better and that's specifically designed to run on lower end machines.



Hair not look like total crap. No spegetti Mass Effect or glued on padme hair made of italy ragu.

Starcraft 2 won't be RTS but an RPG? o.O

[Rubbish Hero]

It uses Mass Effect like dialogues between missions, yes it has RPG elements.

until now I wasn't interested in SC2 at all, now it changed a bit

[Rubbish Hero]

Starcraft II will kick balls.

[Jimmy Fury]

yeah rubbish, go ahead and post some shots of what the rest of SC2 looks like.

Still not sure how they managed to make it look more like a kid barfing up six bags of skittles but they NAILED it. It's real easy to have super high quality interludes when you have a mushy crayola orgy for the rest of the game.

[Massadonious1]

Cutscene power to the max?

[Lyssistr]

 

I bet this inspired DA2's darkspawn armor

Nono, that was the original Starcraft -- this one's a double rainbow.

It's so intense.

Don't forget that it's skittle barf so it's tasting it a second time... so it's like... quadruple rainbow.

oh and @ Lyssistr, I can't think of very many things more terrifying than a horde of Gaga's with swords...

And many apologies, I didn't intend to get the thread off topic and all... well... rainbowy.
So yes, back to the screenshots. The architecture is beautiful. The rest will fall into place.

seeing those images I think they look good, especially the bar one

[Rubbish Hero]

Starcraft II looks better than Dragon Age and Dragon Age 2. Bioware  simply doesn't have Blizzards polish. Even the attempting to point out  the traditional RTS aspect of the game as well as the Adventure/RPG  story elements, it still aesthetically looks better than the garbage we  have been shown. Dragon Age 2 is a rushed game, Starcraft II is a matured game, crafted for Koreans and people sort of like them, but not.

[At one point, there were pictures here!]
Ok.

Agreed, it comes in Amazing Technicolor!

Honestly, if you don't like the graphics, fine, but comparing it to other games left and right doesn't prove any point.

EDIT: Yeah, and Blizzard doesn't have BioWare's story, characters, or depth. They got the lore down pat, though.

It's not going to look that good on my system.

[Katreyn]

I really like flemeths outfit. O.o I hope mages get some update like that. As well as the other armors look great too.



So far, I think it looks pretty good. The desert scenes seem really bland, but it is a "desert" area, so you can't expect too much going on.



The new blood splatter, and updated engine in general looks nice in these screenshots, at least on Hawke and his sister, and flemeth. We'll have to see when it comes to character creation tho. I imagine the update in graphics will limit us (but I hope not as bad as ME).

 I'd argue you can't really compare them overall as companies, Blizzard makes RTS's, MMOs and Hack & Slash. In every one of these genres Blizz is king.

 Bioware makes tactical "old school" RPGs which are more multilinear, party-based (tactical), have romances etc, they are the best of their kind, followed by Obsidian.

 Both companies excel at what they do, no point in comparing them as game developers, some like apples, some like oranges. Comparing specifically graphics between Stracraft II and DA2 on the other hand does.

 I'd say DA2's best pics are roughly on par with SC II, however many DA2's pics are not close to SC II's craft. SC II has been under development for years and is planned to span another 3 years after release by means of expansions. On the other hand DA2 has a shorter development cycle. The level of craft SC II's pictures have is on a different level so far, I want DA2 to get there but I'll be happy with what Bio can deliver, which I'm sure will be polished.

 Also Blizz's games are highly optimized and they run well on low end machines, have a *proper* (read in house, native, with concurrent patches & updates) Mac ports and are optimized for computers in every aspect (UI, performance etc), they're not xbox ports. Blizzard never ever rushed a single product, all are released "when it's ready".

 I may sound like a fanboy but the point is that I'm a fanboy of both companies and objectivity calls for SC II gfx > DA2 gfx. I'll buy both, DA2 is going to be a great game but truth be told, graphics-wise SC II is superior.

[saruman85]

I don't understand. Why do people keep comparing DA2 to Starcraft 2? Rubbish, weren't you AGAINST the last dude who did that?

They're two very different games.

EDIT: Never mind, see post directly above mine. Lyssistr argues both for and against my question.

he didn't compare the games themself but the graphic alone
