A new post by Andreas Papathanasis on the Bioware blog talks about the technology (graphics) of DA2.

Link

Technology was one of the major focus points of the programming team during the transition from Origins to Dragon Age II. After the art team presented us their vision for a rebooted art style, we spent a lot of time with them identifying the technology improvements that would best bring that art style forward.

In this post we’ll examine some of the base technology improvements to the engine. These improvements will be enjoyed by everyone who plays the game, regardless of whether they choose to play on PC with a DirectX 9 video card, PlayStation 3 or Xbox 360. On a subsequent post we’ll examine more advanced DirectX 11 technology that will be exclusive to higher end PCs.

There are new screenshots as well [All DirectX 9]:

those two hand swords are HUGE.

[Shepard Lives]

Ooooh, shiny!

I must say, some textures are meh, but the vistas kick ass. Overall, the game definitely looks better than Origins.

 if i'm not mistaken this is orsino's staff, the three headed dragon one, i'm probably wrong though.

So pretty!!

[Dune01]

Staffs look brilliant in DA2

[Bobad]

Sumptuous, any high end PC screenshots?.......

[MKDAWUSS]

I'll admit it, I jumped the gun about the visual quality of the game 6 months ago when the game was first revealed to the GP.

[Dune01]

I especially like the icon for mabari warhound

[Herr Uhl]

Liking the view in Sundermont.

Some great scenery here.

Not sure if I am too much of a fan of those huge anime swords though.



Oh what do I care, I won't be using them!

[ankuu]

some are really damn good! For example the last one is breathtaking in detail I don't particulary like Hawke's staff tho...the robes are nice!

[PsychoBlonde]

Those trees! They look like actual trees! You can't see the cutoff where the texture hits the edge of the triangle any more! OMG SO PRETTY!!!



Er, compared to Origins anyway. Verra nice.

They were that long in DAO. More than that, despite some scaling issues with the hilt (I imagine so it's on par with other 2H's like hammers), it's of accurate length to real greatswords. It is much wider, though.

Anyhow.

OMIGOSH IS SO PRETTY.

The mini-map is ten times (I did official calculations) better than the Origins mini-map.

Heeeey the guy on the right behind the candles. He kind of looks like Alistair! (His haircut and colour are the same, anyway) 

It's looking good though- I can't wait

[hangmans tree]

All I see are bricks. Everything's so square :/

A **** load of bricks and washed out textures here and there. Everything is clear cut - no blending in transition between elements. I do not know what to think...if it wasnt for BW storytelling I think I'd pass the game

And those 5-men-handers, lord!

[crimzontearz]

sooooooo...are we still waiting for someone to drop in and say "ZOMG this game looks like utter crap"



cause honestly I WISH DA:O looked this pretty

[HyperLimited]

lol dis game looks terible crysis looks wai beter losers. /typicalCrysisfanboiresponse


Hopefully scenery in DAII will be better to gawk at than in Origins.

Augh... Fire pit in the bar. No chimney?

I'm calling the Kirkwall Code Enforcement and the Kirkwall Civil Engineering and Planning department about this one.

*Edit*  Oh, right.  Pretty pictures.  I like the fabric banners with all the little holes in them.  I wonder if you look at it right you can see light coming through the holes? *end edit*
