The bump mapping looks awsome. But, I hope this shot was taken just before the goblin hit the ground because he is "floating" and casting shadows (which are clipped at the ankles). How advanced is the physics engine here? Not exactly the "rag doll" effect. More like the "stiff corpse" effect"
I love the thorns on the tree! The padded armor is almost photrealistic. I'd like to see more texture on the skin though. It seems kind of cartoonish in color compared to all the other shiny stuff. The tatoos are good though.
The picture on the right looks decent. The armor looks cool except maybe for the gaunts.
The goblin's left foot in the picture on the left looks like it was bent out of shape and attached to its right foot... The goblin looks pretty happy for being dead (I assume).

Again, very promising looking screenshots. This game should look awesome (if u can run it in 1600x1200) but its a real shame that the dead goblin is still floating above the ground. I hope that doesn't mean some NPCs will still pop and swin in mid air for a bit >.<
Still, it won't stop me getting the game and trying it in good old 1024x768
They do look really really great, i'm not that concerned about floating goblins personally, i'd rather they spent more CPU cycles on cool MOB AI rather adding finishing touches to the graphics but that still looks damn fine.
I hope they release a proper movie of some combat + someone actually playing soon, all we've had so far are fly-by's so would be good to see it actually being played.

Graphics are nice, glossier the better, but I agree it really is the game play that makes a game playable.
I do like the burnished brass looking armour peices on the right though, not worried about floating goblins, I can just have a laugh at that.
I do wish there was a more realistic way of doing chainmail though, all the stretched textures warping around less than realistic body shapes that seem to be the norm for chainmail at the moment (as seen on the righthand screenshot) is just wrong
WTF are most of ya'll talking about? I think the graphics suck. Sure, things look smooth, but look at the leaves on the tree and the grass. Misti got it right. Anarchy Online and Lineage 2 have much better graphics. They have a long way to go to impress me.
