Oh, if the game doesn't cost 60 euros, then I'm fine with it having old-looking graphics. But if the game is around 60 euros, I want it to look modern, not like a game which is already old.
Besides, I want good story AND good graphics from a videogame, thanks. :P
Oh, I do still play the old games, sometimes I get carried away and end up playing more old games like Icewind Dale than the new ones. But I'm perfectly fine with how they look precisely because they are old games. However, if a newly released game is to look the same as those old glories, well, it does rise some doubts on my part.
If gameplay really is the only thing that matters, we'd all be still playing with the C64 and the Amiga.
All this being said, my main gripe so far is with the system requirements: 8800 Gt and dual core for THAT doesn't seem logical. If the reccomended system requirements will turn out to be lower than those, however, I will be fine. Or, if the graphics will be better. One of the two.
