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 1194 Views
Given how crappy the graphics are, I'd say it's a data issue. Ghavrel - 11/09/2010 09:19:04 AM 1063 Views
WoW graphics don't matter that much.` Kronin al'Sulc - 11/09/2010 10:22:23 PM 975 Views
They matter to me. *NM* Ghavrel - 12/09/2010 02:58:50 AM 485 Views
the wow graphics are far from bad LadyLorraine - 12/09/2010 06:12:15 AM 954 Views
"Bad" is subjective. By any modern technical standard, however, they are inferior. Aemon - 12/09/2010 07:28:34 AM 1067 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 1204 Views
Oh I understand. Aemon - 12/09/2010 05:02:26 PM 965 Views
they really aren't bad LadyLorraine - 12/09/2010 06:11:48 PM 930 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 992 Views
no, i'm also saying that from a technical standpoint they are not BAD LadyLorraine - 12/09/2010 09:24:09 PM 1036 Views
Yes, they are. Ghavrel - 12/09/2010 10:04:49 PM 1020 Views
Baldur's Gate came out in 1998. You know what that means, right? Aemon - 12/09/2010 10:08:49 PM 1026 Views
It all depends on what criteria you're using ranagrande - 13/09/2010 01:56:37 AM 988 Views
I know, and I said as much. Several times. Aemon - 13/09/2010 05:17:14 AM 951 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 1019 Views

This is a meaningless conversation. Ghavrel - 13/09/2010 06:30:07 PM 947 Views
Your post + Dr. Pepper + front row of serious computer security class = dangerous situation. *NM* Aemon - 13/09/2010 07:28:34 PM 426 Views
Not at all ranagrande - 13/09/2010 09:25:08 PM 1036 Views

I'm arguing for the fun of it is what I'm arguing about LadyLorraine - 13/09/2010 11:17:46 PM 970 Views

that's fine wish you were a cmb admin *NM* LadyLorraine - 14/09/2010 03:35:19 AM 461 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 446 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 591 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 995 Views
I agree, I was shocked that my netbook could run wow at acceptable settings Roland00 - 13/09/2010 05:21:44 AM 883 Views

Why would I want to? *NM* Zalis - 13/09/2010 04:21:19 PM 458 Views
I can see how it would be sort of neat. Aemon - 13/09/2010 07:30:40 PM 906 Views
Something like that. Zalis - 13/09/2010 08:20:55 PM 1048 Views
