Screenshot... what ya'll think

[chisled2bone]

Just wanted to get everyone's opinions on the first screenshot of the game?

[ogrezilla]

big thumbs up. Now I need to see characters.

[Aedelric]

It is exactly what they promised, essentially Infinity Engine plus.

 

Edit - Forgot to say, it looks absolutely fantastic!

[Lord Balgeron]

It looks like Sacred.

[Tale]

I was kind of expecting to see some placeholder characters in there. But for pure environment work its fantastic. Now to see it in motion.

[Liora]

It looks beautiful!

[DocDoomII]

Is way past the "stunning level"

 

I'd say its "mesmerizing level"

It looks great but I wasn't expecting anything else either. I'm sure characters will look great as well.

 

The interface is the most interesting part for me.

The perspective looks a bit odd for an isonometric game. The camera angle is a bit too shallow. Ayway today I upped my pledge, I tripled it, actally. I guess I really need a fix of good old style RPG goodness!

[rjshae]

It's nice graphically, but hopefully that would just be part of a larger area map. Otherwise it might be a bit cramped for a combat encounter.

 

Like the almanac idea as well. Kudos!

As pretty as the Witcher 2. The little campsite by the river intrigues me, does that broken bridge lead to another door? Are those stone statues actually weathering into corpses? Do we arrive via that boat or by the road?

[Godwin]

I think I speak for everyone here in saying this screenshot is exactly what we were all hoping for and we're all very pleased. Thank you very much Obsidian for delivering.

 

The same goes for the lore.

As pretty as Witcher 2 ? Hm. For a WIP it looked pretty promising, I like the statues

[True_Spike]

It's simply stunning. And I'm sure they can do even better.

[Death Machine Miyagi]

Very, very nice. Man, it feels good to go back to the days when the background of an RPG is a work of art in and of itself rather than just being cut and paste duplication of some generic dungeon.

Just fantastic guys. I´m realy impressed by your work!

[chisled2bone]

I also was half really wanting to see some character models or the like, but i suppose that would have been asking for a lot this early. Looking forward to what else they put out in the future weeks. Keep building up the hype even after the kickstarter ends. And i agree with whoever said it earlier that it did look a little small, but perhaps thats just a map right before you enter the dungeon where the statues are...

[yulva]

It does look great. But isn't the angle a bit too low and the area too small for an isometric game? It seems more like a screenshot from a point-and-click adventure game.

[kenup]

It was pretty amazing, for a WIP especially. At first sight, I thought it was a photograph , without looking at details.

 

Later I noticed the statues are seemingly anorexic, well at least one is, and somebody has removed part of their abdomen.

I'm sure they can zoom the camera in or out.

 

edit: oh I think you mean the angle. the first clue is where you used the word angle haha my bad

The fact that they seem to be showing bodies decaying really opens a lot of questions.

Note the boat in the lower-left corner for scale, the door is huge. It is a good deal more zoomed-out than planescape was.

 

The camera-angle does seem lower than in IE games though.

The screenshot is pretty fantastic looking, very nice job Obsidian!

[jivex5k]

I love replaying classics... but this...THIS is what I need.

[Hassat Hunter]

 

 

Would be my response.

(Now hope anyone actually clicks to hear, unlike the progress report #20 thread).

 

Bonus points for someone recognising the game it's from
