it's such a weird decision because the game is supposed to appeal to a niche market of 40 somethings who want to play more EQ and now we're getting the gameplay of old rear end EQ with the art style of a more stylized, cartoony MMO lol @ this creature

A vigilant sentinel, I have stood, espousing the game's virtues to my brethren of the joystick, a knight sworn to defend its honor against the cynics who claimed its elusive manifestation would forever evade our grasp.

Switching art styles this late is so loving funny. There's so much media for the game already out there that will just never be remotely accurate now The game is never coming out so it won't matter but lmfao

Is the late switch because they found some ai-generated model/rigging software?

No I think it’s just because they’re grifting.

Poking around on their discord, a lot of vocal folks really hate the changes, although it's simply because "it looks like WoW, therefore it will not be A SERIOUS game".

So they were doing a monthly PA testing for a while, but they couldn't make enough new content that was tester ready on a monthly schedule, so the amount of testers dwindled and they weren't getting enough data. So expect them to announce a change in test format to some weird rear end Tarkov, extraction MMO to keep people hopefully playing. Have an hour to complete some mission, and if you die you lose all your inventory? The VIP folks talking about this in non VIP channels are almost as irritated by this ad they are the new art style. This is the new 247 testing thing coming out to a several hundred dollar pledge near you. Please look forward to it.

I'm going to be controversial here and say I don't hate it, actually, aside from the face having some young Logan vibes If they did a retro art style like what Monsters & Memories is going for, it could be nice. I'd take a lowish-poly, action figure-y but very consistent art style over a mishmash of Unity assets of varying qualities any day of the week. Hell, the best art style they had going so far was the greyboxing The problem is that this is the 3rd or 4th time they've changed the art around and who knows what the gently caress this game is going to even be about anymore.

(Druid, Warrior and Ranger were all playable during previous pre alpha streams but have not been in the game for well over a year or two now due to the major engine changes.)

I don't hate it either, but it's not great and it seems like a weird change in direction. Pantheon sure seems like it's got bigger problems than its art direction... EDIT: It really seems like a good part of their existing fanbase doesn't like the graphics change and I really doubt this is going to draw in substantial numbers of new fans so it's really just puzzling FrostyPox fucked around with this message at 00:04 on Sep 11, 2023 |

Can't wait for the battle royal mode announcement. Seriously though, I guess they are trying to bring the new generation to their game that's been in development for a decade, but who are these young kinds that want to play Everquest reloaded? Is that audience larger than the 20-30% of EQ hardliners they're going to lose by shifting like this?
