    They said in a developer interview that this game was inspired by Game of Thrones. But this game looks nothing like that. In fact, it looks like a children's game. Maybe it's just that it is under pre-alpha and that's all there is to it, but even then it should give an idea on what to expect and this stuff looks...well, bad!

    The gameplay is inspired by it: politics, kingdoms, fealty trees, struggle for power, conflicts between factions, treachery, guilds, spies, wars, medieval fantasy setting, mounts, etc.

    The art style however has always been said to be stylized / cartoonish compared to more  realistic medieval RPG games.

    This looks and sounds awful... Whats with all these cartoon games now. Developers are targeting the wrong audiences...

    Well I see this wont be going anywhere.
    Did anyone else notice that their "in house" computers still had a massive FPS drop when a wall crumbled?

    Are you honestly expecting great performance in a pre-alpha test? You might want to educate yourself on how game development works.

    It's improving though. We're seeing higher FPS both in Hunger dome and Siege Perilous. Optimization takes time though.

    I think it looks pretty good for an alpha.  Realism is not for everybody either.  Also there isn't just one audience for games, the game that held and still holds the largest audience is cartoony :)

    Camelot unchianed looks awful for going for 4 million dollars for development....

    Like I took a look through their website, looked for the game models so I could see what it looks like and its just awful...

    I prefer stylized 3D animation than realistic 3D animation. Stylized animation allows artists to show more character and different vibe in different characters, just look at WoW, i don't think realistic 3D animation could have given us better depth in character arts of different lore characters and could not differentiate individuality among them or put more individuality in them.

    Boobs are LIFE, Boobs are LOVE, Boobs are JUSTICE, Boobs are mankind's HOPES and DREAMS. People who complain about boobs have lost their humanity.

    Graphics will improve, after all they are still in alpha. Rather have this style of animation than the realistic look, each to their own i guess.

    So far this game looks like garbage.

    I like it and i don't like it at the same time. If that makes any sense.

    The trailer doesn't do the game justice - even a little.

    This is just a testing module, but already the sieging is fun enough that I literally rearrange my work schedule to make as many tests as possible.

    It definitely recaptures a little Shadowbane magic. And for Alpha, it's in fantastic shape.

    I'm not a fan of overly stylized Gfx either, but core gameplay is far more important to me than "realistic" graphics that will look awful in 2 years. 

    They haven't even started optimizing the game for FPS yet, but I believe that is about to begin. They need to as the numbers in these sieges are getting bigger and bigger.
