Graphics don't matter in an MMO, in fact a cleverer use of graphics can increase an MMOs userbase by lowering the system requirements allowing more people to run the game. Here's an idea why not wait and see how it plays before you judge a game? An MMO with a good story sounds like a great idea to me, it will be great if it makes you character feel important in that world instead of a clone of the next player doing the same meaningless fetch quest as the player next to you.
Okay "Star Wars: The Old Republic" looks like shit. Now what?

Well, I'm getting it, because it's a Star Wars MMO, made by Bioware. That's all the info I need.
Like the others say really graphics..
Good Graphics are nice to have but many times the best of games are not those with the best of graphics. It is about Story, Gameplay, Humor, Interesting Characters, Or simply offering allot of fun.
I don't know if this game will succeed but I think that it has a chance. If it is fun and easy enough to play. I am in!

I am so tired of the WoW universe that any half decent game in a more interesting setting will be more than enough to pull me away from WoW. The Star Wars universe definitely fits into that category for me, and since I started playing Bioware game with KoTOR, they haven't put out a bad game.

i really don't give at shit
and mmos are long term games, if you sell those on graphics the paint starts to peel off rather quickly. But i agree, the bounty hunter trailer looks just bland somehow but that might be my annoyance at the fact that they faced the class of mandalorian bounty hunters(they probably are the most numerous but still)

The less power a game requires, the more people that can play it, the more people you have to play with. Not that I'm an mmo player but as I gathered that MMO with angels didn't do as well as it could have because of it's higher requirements.
Besides the game looked fine from the trailer.

As would I but that is not the world we live in....not yet anyway. YOUR computer might be able to run such a game but I doubt every other member of the games target audience's could. And an MMO without players isn't really an MMO.Rayne870 said:
I would prefer a good story and clever game design over beautiful looking repetitiveness any day.
Well, it looks like an MMO that tries to be a little of everything to everyone. I'll get it just because it's a BioWare Star Wars story (eight of 'em, actually). Not certain I'll stick with it, as I generally loathe MMO players... but who knows? Maybe I'll find a group of people who can roleplay in the Star Wars universe (I used to GM star wars D20 on occasion).
...and I could never appreciate killing 50 boars for an NPC in any game... 10 giant insectoid alien monsters, on the other hand...

The relevancy is just staggering for me. Never had that happen with any pic I've posted.
Just wanted to add another point to supporters of substance over graphics in this thread. This is troll-bait, people. Clear and simple. He has no true backing or credibility to his argument, yet continues to aggressively argue none-the-less. Just move on, and he'll eventually tire himself out.
That. Was. AWESOME!Dejawesp said:
I'm a bit curious as to why the armours are custom fit to ridiculously big bewbs, but otherwise...Do want.
That gives them more time to work on it right?Dejawesp said:
You're right, they don't look impressive, but using smaller character models may allow them to have a huge range of characters and environments. It may also allow them to have thousands of characters on screen at once. I'd wait until it's released before you criticize it. I played the demo of Star Wars Battlefront on Xbox many years ago and thought it looked terrible. One month later the game came out and it was amazing.
