I was just browsing through the official forums for Bethesda's Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, and I certainly hope the developers read other forums, like this one.

The people in those forums are so incredibly lame, and the vast majority of them are already fabois, and the rest hate the game even though it's not out yet.

I didn't really see any coherent criticism at all, much less constructive criticism.

So, if anybody at Bethesda is reading this, you should pay heed to other markets besides your own established one!

(that is to say, I'm sure you're going to make a game that your established market enjoys. But I imagine you'd also like to make the Elder Scrolls better, and Yes-men and fanbois won't help that.)

In short: we're better.

a) Bloom

b) This has the same plastic generic directx look that EQ2 does :/ That makes me sad panda.

Bah. Here's hoping more dev work is going into gameplay than graphics.

Fantasy games need a fashion designer. WoW was okay, barely, but EQ2 was terrible and Lineage is no better.

Seriously that helmet is terrible.

No amount of beautiful graphics in the world can save an awful combat system. Let's hope that system is better than Morrowind.

not too shabby. I hope the game world feels a bit less like it was created by a random number generator, though.

Video cards everywhere scream out in terror.

It does look a lot like EQ2, but i imagine it wont look quite as barren due to not having to factor in multiplayer stuff..plus I think they are using some new kind of trees that look amazing and cause very little performance hit.
