They sure know how to pick 'em, don't they? Can't see much... but I guess that blue swirly stuff looks good.

Arrr, floating text is a pain in the arse to read. I'd rather have an info box.

That or a proper outline around it. Well, that wouldn't help much but it would. Making it fatter (like the fallout font - but a new one that is) would greatly help too.

They defenetivly have lighting problems, everything's just too dark...

Perhaps it's night?

Yeah, most Lionheart screenies are annoyingly dark.

I wonder how many people are really interested in Lionheart, here in DAC.

Quite a few.It using special means that whatever it im;iments in SPECIAL (like say the doging skill) will most probably make it into Fallout 3. When designing the next Fallout (if it ever happens), they'll certainly be looking at the other direvaties (ie: Fo:T and Loinheart) and see what they take and leave from that.

Not caring how Lionheart as a Fallout fan eventually expecting a third installement of the game is a bit stupid.

Problem is that an info box a la Fallout don't work in real time combat.

Just another reason why turn based is better.

Combined with that absolutely illegible font in dog piss yellow, it's even worse. Any effects behind it (as shown) make it even worse.

Hello? Are these screenshots supposed to make the game look good or make people scrape their eyes from their sockets in horror with a dessert knife and plunge their head into a bucket of boiling vinegar to expunge that vision from ther minds?

For salability of the game, I would suggest they refrain from releasing any more.

The media you're trying to access is part of our IGNinsider premium subscription service.

What's this, RPGVault trying to make me pay to view that crappy screenshot again?

----
I hope the floating text info is readable somewhere after the battle is over. Too bad it aint too useful during the hectic hack n' slash. In worst case, it's gonna be like PS:T...

Yeah, that's their way to try and make money. They hope that by archiving articles and screenshots behind their "subscriber service", people sill subscribe to access them.

Even though I have nothing against it, I highly doubt they're making much profit off of that...
