Baldur's Gate came out in 1998. You know what that means, right? Aemon Send a noteboard - 12/09/2010 10:08:49 PM
It means that WoW is 6 years newer than Baldur's Gate, and 6 years OLDER than a newly released modern game. Can you see where I'm going with this? ;) If WoW has 6 years of improvement over Baldur's Gate, and a modern game has 6 years of improvement over WoW, then WoW is as inferior to a modern game as Baldur's Gate is to WoW.

From a TECHNICAL STANDPOINT, whether you measure that in texture detail, polygon count, minimum system requirements, or whatever, WoW is at least an order of magnitude below modern standards.

Given how crappy the graphics are, I'd say it's a data issue. - 11/09/2010 09:19:04 AM 826 Views

the wow graphics are far from bad - 12/09/2010 06:12:15 AM 720 Views
"Bad" is subjective. By any modern technical standard, however, they are inferior. - 12/09/2010 07:28:34 AM 804 Views
They're definitely antiquated, but from a business sense, doing so makes a ton of sense - 12/09/2010 09:03:36 AM 958 Views
Oh I understand. - 12/09/2010 05:02:26 PM 710 Views

You guys are not actually disagreeing. Aemon realizes this, but I'm not sure LL does - 12/09/2010 06:35:09 PM 773 Views
no, i'm also saying that from a technical standpoint they are not BAD - 12/09/2010 09:24:09 PM 796 Views

That is one of the most tortuous definitions of quality I have seen in my life. - 13/09/2010 06:11:59 AM 768 Views
