Ignition Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Who did the graphics for this years release? I'm trying not too be too over critical, but for a game that graphically seemed to once have so much promise it looks poor. The screens look very amateur and I was wondering if there was a change in graphic designers or anything. Or if there will be other sets of graphics included with the game? [url]http://www.greydogsoftware.com/images/tew2008/TEW2008_3.bmp[/url] That one in particular looks horrible in my oppinion. I used to really enjoy the original TEW's simple graphics and last years one was decent as well....but this seems like such a huge step down. Does anyone else agree?

D16NJD16 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I never end up using the ones released with the game, too dark, but I actually like this years one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illmatic Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I like the graphics for the most part. I do however think that the background graphic for the website is horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crayon Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I don't disagree that they look amateur'ish. But I also don't agree that last year's were any better. A different style perhaps (more.. "edgy" i guess), but still not that good. But then graphics isn't a high priority of the game design, and GDS isn't exactly swimming in vaults of money like Scrooge McDuck, so hey. Could probably do a lot worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommytomlin Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 If only there was some way to.... change the graphics somehow. By.... downloading some kind of... alternative graphic set.... made by... other people! On a website!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crayon Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Heh, If they're any better that is a good point. But then the question of why non-professional artists working for free are putting out better graphical content than that included in the game becomes an equally good point :) GDS may want to woo some of these artists so they can include alternative themes for the next game to cut back down on complaints and give a better impression to review sites. Just throwing the idea out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
