I can't be bothered to check if I've already said this yet but those mounts are just so unbelievably ugly and tacky looking. They don't look like a part of the world at all and just stick out from every backdrop or landscape I've seen them in so far. It looks like they took inspiration from my grandmother's parlor room with hideous multicolored glass "conversation pieces" where everything was covered in plastic and nobody was ever allowed inside.

I'm just looking here at the last stream they did (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fkwaYLOuw2s&t=4020s) and how unbelievably gaudy and tasteless some of them look. They look like happy meal toys. You're right about mismatched theme though. The entire game looks like they have four different art directors that have never even exchanged a word with one another.

I'm still pretty skeeved about all of these "only 10 players in the game will have this!" features I keep learning about. This sounds like some bored millionaire ant colony game where he just wants a fantasy world in which to lord over everyone else with his hideous personally exclusive bear-butterfly mount.

Did I mention this game was skeevy as all hell? Also listening to interviews with devs talking about him it sounds like some cult following.

For a second I honestly believed that was a screenshot.

I said come in! posted:

This does look cool, but how is it that this game is nearing 5 years in development and its still no where close to finished and just looks like a higher texture resolution version of Guild Wars 2? It still looks and feels like it does not have an identity of its own.

Yeah whoever is doing the worldbuilding here is not very inspired. This looks like a dollar store fantasy setting at best.

I liked Landmark. Something about it was very soothing. Reminded me of the old Tribes 2 construction mod, just hanging out with people building things for no reason other than to build.

He really is a sleeze bag. It's disappointing that that's what it takes to actually launch one of these KS MMOs.

Why do the player models always look like they were added in post? Nothing looks like it fits together visually in this game.
