Duck and Cover

the first one I've been extremely impressed by.

It shows a lot of detail. Now, move the camera up to the classic fallout angle... it has potential...

I'll...check it out. Looks a shi-fuck load better than Morrowind...Then again, I thought Morrowind was way behind in the graphics department for it's release date.

It also performed like shit for me in terms of framerate, and it also had to load every ten paces I took.

Gothic was a lot better in this department - better framerates, completely seamless, load-free world, and there wasn't even any indoor/outdoor loading.

I loved that game...Part 2 was kind of 'bleh' though.

I only played Gothic 2, which was über. If this Oblivion (Lost? OMG DRAGONS!!1) -thingy is anything like it, I'll propably get it one way or another.

Can't wait to lug around hundreds of plates and books to sell them off. That pretty room is going to picked clean!

Those objects appear to be glowing...

Could it be radiation?

Fallout 3!

I wouldn't mind seeing a screenshot of an Argonian or Khajiit.

There is also loading between indoor-outdoor environments in Oblivion, just like in Morrowind, which sucks.

Erh, it doesn't look that good.

Agreed. Makes you think twice before entering buildings eh? => "Ooh side quest? Fuck that."

Quite so. Which is why the game was unplayable garbage.

These screenshots look more like shitbox 2 fodder if you ask me. A whole lot of detail and fuck all else. I really liked the fact that Daggerfall was expansive despite the sparse nature of the graphics.

I'm going to have to buy another harddrive and put windows 98 on it so I can forget about Morrowind and Oblivion and just go back to playing Daggerfall.

Part 2 was bleh. The story wasn't that interesting and the animations and controls weren't what I'd call great. The combat system seemed a bit better than the average and boring as shite "I hit you now you hit me" diablo/baldurs gate/NWN style that prevails amongst most RPGS. However it needed some polishing to make it playable. I couldn't enjoy it.

Damn, was it my red dragon avatar that gave it away?

Speaking of Elderscrolls stuff, I decided to check the forums and sweet Jesus, I found the weird and strange there.

Where are the item shadows?

ABSENT, JUST LIKE MY INTEREST IN OBLIVION OLOLOL!!!!11

Reminds me of the long conversations we had on FO2.

Blur? No thanks.

Unoptimised code featuring unhealthy amount of polygons which will need a 400$ class card to crash to desktop flawlessly? No thanks.

I know I can tell a lot about the quality of code from that screenshot.
