Its got dx10 effects, and the shadows are really great looking, but models still reek of even pre-source in terms of complexity imo. Plus I hate the walking camera effect, it makes it feel like I have a bad framerate. There's gotta be a way of turning it off. Whats funny is the first area is just like the first area of the first game. Buncha stalkers sitting around fires eating polygonal sausages.
Ill probably end up liking it, but between it and NWN2, NWN2 is winning the interest game
