You're one of those types that just likes to argue, aren't you? Aemon Send a noteboard - 13/09/2010 04:53:04 AM
When it comes to graphics, the average gamer uses "good" and "bad" to roughly compare a game to current standards. When a kid goes into a game store and says "these graphics are awesome!" he doesn't mean, "these graphics are awesome compared to what was available in 1998!"

If that's what YOU mean when you say "good," then fine: WoW has good graphics. You'll find yourself to be in the minority with that viewpoint, however. Still, I guess I really can't argue with you any more. WoW graphics are provably below modern standards, by a significant margin. When graphics are far below the standard norm, I consider them bad. As do most other gamers. If you don't, well. . .*shrugs* That's grand. Enjoy your Warcraft. :P

So...how long before we can play WOW on our phones? Dark Knight - 11/09/2010 06:25:28 AM 955 Views
Given how crappy the graphics are, I'd say it's a data issue. Ghavrel - 11/09/2010 09:19:04 AM 798 Views
WoW graphics don't matter that much.` Kronin al'Sulc - 11/09/2010 10:22:23 PM 697 Views

the wow graphics are far from bad LadyLorraine - 12/09/2010 06:12:15 AM 687 Views
"Bad" is subjective. By any modern technical standard, however, they are inferior. Aemon - 12/09/2010 07:28:34 AM 777 Views
They're definitely antiquated, but from a business sense, doing so makes a ton of sense Brian - 12/09/2010 09:03:36 AM 857 Views
Oh I understand. Aemon - 12/09/2010 05:02:26 PM 681 Views
they really aren't bad LadyLorraine - 12/09/2010 06:11:48 PM 670 Views
You guys are not actually disagreeing. Aemon realizes this, but I'm not sure LL does lord-of-shadow - 12/09/2010 06:35:09 PM 743 Views
no, i'm also saying that from a technical standpoint they are not BAD LadyLorraine - 12/09/2010 09:24:09 PM 763 Views
Yes, they are. Ghavrel - 12/09/2010 10:04:49 PM 744 Views
Baldur's Gate came out in 1998. You know what that means, right? Aemon - 12/09/2010 10:08:49 PM 728 Views
It all depends on what criteria you're using ranagrande - 13/09/2010 01:56:37 AM 697 Views
I know, and I said as much. Several times. Aemon - 13/09/2010 05:17:14 AM 687 Views

That is one of the most tortuous definitions of quality I have seen in my life. Ghavrel - 13/09/2010 06:11:59 AM 737 Views

This is a meaningless conversation. Ghavrel - 13/09/2010 06:30:07 PM 662 Views
Your post + Dr. Pepper + front row of serious computer security class = dangerous situation. *NM* Aemon - 13/09/2010 07:28:34 PM 316 Views
Not at all ranagrande - 13/09/2010 09:25:08 PM 744 Views
below modern standards doesn't mean "bad" LadyLorraine - 13/09/2010 04:16:41 AM 689 Views

You're a fucking idiot. Dan - 13/09/2010 09:00:28 PM 649 Views
I'm arguing for the fun of it is what I'm arguing about LadyLorraine - 13/09/2010 11:17:46 PM 721 Views

that's fine wish you were a cmb admin *NM* LadyLorraine - 14/09/2010 03:35:19 AM 348 Views
Hm. I'd have to buy a lot more donuts if I worked over there. *NM* Aemon - 14/09/2010 04:07:51 AM 331 Views
Haha, I'm just happy that what I said made any sense....I honestly don't remember posting that. *NM* Brian - 12/09/2010 06:31:52 PM 401 Views
I've noticed that MMO's that have tried to usurp WoW with superior graphics have failed. TaskmasterJack - 12/09/2010 07:33:13 PM 709 Views
I agree, I was shocked that my netbook could run wow at acceptable settings Roland00 - 13/09/2010 05:21:44 AM 634 Views

Why would I want to? *NM* Zalis - 13/09/2010 04:21:19 PM 345 Views
I can see how it would be sort of neat. Aemon - 13/09/2010 07:30:40 PM 609 Views
Something like that. Zalis - 13/09/2010 08:20:55 PM 770 Views
