To me the graphics and graphic art in the movies and the screenshots looks incredible.
Especially the large winged demon writhing in the magic part.
I didnt like the graphic art in Steamworks arcanum either. Im not sure if they are related well have to see. That is a 2d game and this is a 3d game so odds are there are different people drawing the creatures.
I think part of why POR2 wasnt appreciated, is that the fans of the D and D licensed rpgs are not into something so slow moving. It was also incredibly difficult so basically you spent your time going nowhere.
Im sure this game is going to try and be different from that one.
What a lot of people dont know is that the troika people have been making exclusively pen and paper rpgs since they started.
The game Fallout was orignally written to be a license of STeve Jacksons GURPS system, but it fell through so the changed the skill names and called it special.
Arcanum uses the same system, and D and D 3.5 is GREATLY influenced towards GURPS as opposed to the old system.
So this is a great deal like their previous games in 3d graphics I would bet. This was the graphics engine they were planning to make steamworks 2 with.
