You think this game looks bad? Go back and play DA:O.

I'm sure if I looked in-depth at the character models or the ground textures, I may notice a few flaws. But I'm finding myself more swept away by the art direction than insulted by 'a lack of technical prowess.'

Witcher 2, Skyrim would like to have a word with you, hell let's throw in Diablo 3


I disagree with you on the Skyrim point. I, personally, think Dragon Age II is a far better looking game. Not saying that Skyrim is ugly. I just don't think it's nearly as gorgeous as DAII.


Skyrim is a bit iffy, but still looks good

Almost every review I have seen states that the game is sub-par in the graphics department. That does not mean it is not a good game. I do not understand defending the graphics, when they are honestly last gen, just focus on the story.

DAII looks better than what I've seen of Diablo III and Witcher 2, and Skyrim is a different genre.


I love Bioware games also, but you sir, are blind or trying to brown-nose. Also Skyrim is a RPG, just like DA][


Skyrim is an open-world RPG while DAII is a tactical RPG. (I think) The point is, they are a different subgenre. For example, you can focus more on the graphics in a open-world game, whereas in a tactial RPG they focus more on the story and characters.

I'm not a sir, and I'm not blind. I think DAII looks better. Feel free to disagree, but don't try to tell me that my opinion is wrong.

Skyrim is a different genre. Tactical RPGs are different than sandbox RPGs. Oblivion's graphics were more detailed than Origins', even though it was released over three years earlier. They different foci.

Think he meant sub-genre. DA2 is a tacitcal RPG, while Diablo 3 and Witcher 2 are action RPGs while Skyrim is a Open-world sandbox rpg.


This. Anyway,I pretty much like all those games equally, as since I have pre ordered a few of the ones you listed. *Love's RPGS*

Now we need someone to post a crysis 2 screenshot running on a quad GTX 580 overclocked to the gill .. Running on the best available CPU on the market overclocked to the gill and water cooled to the max.

and compare it to dragon age 2 on the ps3 using a cheap camera in SD resolution..

RPGs all fall under the same genre. Your trying to argue something like  RTS != RPG, but it's not like that. Tactical RPGs, Sandbox RPGs, Action RPGs, they are all RPGs.

To be honest mate, i would think it would be the other way around

No overclocking, watercooling or hardware that good is needed to run the demo on max at least.

Ok I'll take your word for it. You've got to be the only person I know that thinks a lower poly-count, low-rez textures and small maps are better graphics. By that scale your best graphic game of all time... Pong?

No, in an open-world game you have to make the world look amazing, or people will get really bored really fast of looking at an ugly landscape. You can make things look good in DA type games and tactical RPG's, but don' t have to focus on it as much because people aren't paying as much attention to it as they would in open-world games.

Dunno why. A tactical rpg has to run complex tactics for multiple characters and thus cannot devote the same resources to high end graphics that something like Skyrim can.

I never said Skyrim wasn't an RPG. I said Skyrim was an open-world sandbox RPG, whereas Dragon Age is a tactical RPG. They play very differently from one another, and they have different design priorities. I never said anything about RTSs. Please don't put words in my mouth.

Then what's the argument for Action RPGs? Granted people would be focusing more on gameplay but they still able to pull off a good looking game (and since DA2 is trying ot incorporate Action RPG into its franchise...)

Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn, actually. Never have I seen more beautiful art in a game.

I said something like it was an analogy. You're trying to say that this kind of RPG is not this kind of RPG therefore they shouldn't be compared. But you cannot do that since both fall under the same category of RPG and all share core values. 

And no DA is not tactical RPG anymore its a hybrid fused with action RPG.

Still, people are talking like the graphics in DAII are actually bad, which surely isn't the case. I'd say they're good to very good graphics (can't say without testing the HD textures pack) -- which isn't the important part of games like this anyway. Story is what matters the most here.

My thinking was, since the focus is on such a smaller scale than a vast open space, you would be able to devote more time to graphics

It is exactly like DAO, but faster.  So if we sped DAO 2X faster, it would be a hybrid fused with action RPG?

Perhaps they confusing graphics with the new art direction?
