I actually hope they find a middle ground for the elf style. I definately much preffered Origins', but the elves felt to human.

Why is it so difficult for gamers to understand what a game engine is, and is not?

Artists make everything you can see on your screen when the game is running. An engine doesn't decide to make swords really huge, or to make darkspawn look silly.

When someone says cartoony, it always makes me wonder what they mean.

When someone says "rock music" does it also make you wonder which specific sub-genre of rock they have on mind, and until they narrow it down do you have absolutely no idea what sort of music they are talking about?

Yes. "Rock music" is a term that is so broad that it has become practically meaningless. Rock n Roll started in the 50's. The vocal stylings of Jimmy Preston and Elvis Presley are extremely different than Queen or Joan Jett, yet they all qualify as rock music. If somebody likes a specific subgenre or band that I thought was rock music, and then says "I don't like rock music", then I get confused.

For those who are attempting to deride my use of the term 'cartoony' you should note that I did, in fact, suggest a specific stye.

The art style of DA2 was a disaster, can't believe that BW would not change it. And hopefully they will not adapt anything from that movie "something something seeker" or what ever it was called. I demand photo realistic graphics! or... humbly suggest it I mean...

Yes.

That's interesting take. To me if someone uses the term, i tend to interpret it as them referring to 'mainstream rock' -- as, if they mean something more specific/rare, then it warrants adding a distinction but otherwise it can be skipped.

Since this is based on the Frostbite Engine, will the get rid of the cartoony style?

No.

[snfonseka]

I hope so. Fingers crossed.

The TMNT one is a close enough comparison for me

[filetemo]

Whatever style they apply, if DA3 does not look better than the Witcher 2, it's a fail.

[sunnydxmen]

I like the art style of da2.

[JimmyTheProthean]

I'm well aware of the distinction between Art style and game engine, but my point is the Frostbite engine allows for very realistic graphics, compared to other game engines. So i think it would be a shame if they did not opt to go for the DA Origins gritty realistic style again on the new engine.

Origins was neither gritty nor realistic.

[Sejborg]

The art is still the same so I don't think it will change because of the engine.

Origins looks more realistic and gritty. Sorry.

In what way is comparing a walking corpse from one game and a healthy woman from the othe a valid comparison?
Oh that's right, it isn't.

They should change the art style to a more realistic one . DA2 style was so unrealistic and generic, it breaks the immersion.
