In Defense Of TOR's Art Direction

Posted By Mike on December 21, 2008

As graphics continue to get more detailed, do you like your video game graphics to be as realistic as possible or do you like some colorful art direction? Massively discusses the issue while focussing in on reaction to the look of Star Wars: The Old Republic. Click here for the article and see below for an excerpt:

"This is big with the eventual release of Star Wars: The Old Republic. Many fans are really disappointed that BioWare took the road of artistic design instead of making everything gunmetal grey and covered in lightsabers. It's as if there's something flawed or "wrong" about trying to make something colorful rather than something that mimics real life."
