That doesn't count to me, because it

a) still is dark

b) it uses a rather comic-like look.

What I mean is something I call "Light Fantasy". In terms of colours & setting(s).

"Comic Fantasy" ist just another (yet new) setting/genre in itself in my opinion.


Actually, that quote was out of my post, but quoted from Equisilus. But I get what you are saying and agree with the D3 assessment of comic book look. And while literally hundreds blasted the new color and character style of D3, I personally like it, and think it fits the personality of that game well.

When we get some more solid gameplay video of this game, it may prove that, as someone above said, screenshots were captured in mid-stream and that this enhances the effects of the shots, and not be as drastic as I observed. I was only saying that I felt there was some cartoonish look to certain aspects of the game that I hadn't expected. Story and gameplay (style/interface) are the main attributes that effect if I like games. Graphics help, but not near as big a deal. That could be a whole other topic though smile I anticipate that like DD, Ego Draconis will be high on the my most important aspects.



Is reality just a fantasy?
