Looks good enough to me.

Shame about the MMO part, though. What a waste.

Ugh, what a waste of a perfectly good IP.  Bioware has really gone into the pooper the past couple of years.

These shots looks way better than what they first released. The first shot looks good actually. Just the character art...it's so bad.

Not counting terminal- or browser-based stuff, is FFXI still the only cross-platform MMO?  Square ought to pick up the pace on their next-gen deal, now that having a hard disk and Internet connection for your console is mainstream they could probably reach a bigger market if they can get to it before it's saturated.

everquest got a mac port in 2003 (lol1!!11!)

but yeah, FFXI.

bioware is horrible and makes nothing of value. mass effect managed to save itself from being completely ruined by bioware but did not escape unscathed.

EQ was cross-platform?  I thought it just had a separate PS2 spinoff.

Lately I've jumped on every new MMO bandwagon but I'm going to try to avoid this one. I bet I'll get pulled into it, though.

It looks OK for an MMO; the question will be how they handle gameplay. Star Wars works when it follows the mythic arc of a hero's journey, but not so much when it's "the journey of that hero's level-grinding tailor who makes bantha-skin belts."

On review, these actually look like they're trying for the look in the Ralph McQuarrie paintings used as reference in the original trilogy. I think that's pretty damned kewl.

I hope everyone here understands that they couldn't make a fully normal looking game since The Clone Wars™ animated series is amazingly popular on Cartoon Network.
If they'd gone full bore and given it a totally stylized look, then maybe it wouldn't be quite so hideous. As it stands the game's look is a repugnant mishmash of realistic textures on top of ugly, low poly models.

Yea, some of my friends still play FFXI, and say the Japanese love it for the complexity it has.

But those pics do look WoWish.

Seriously guys, you didn't expect an MMO to look this way after WoW got this huge and every other MMO that looks different than WoW tanked?

It will probably turn out good. As for the art/color palette, it's definitely WoW inspired for sure.

Still, seriously BioWare, where the fuck is Mass Erect 2?

If you think this looks bad, you should see the SWG engine revamp they were messing around with. Was even more WoW-like than this.
