AoD goes next-gen, gets light maps, floats and mudcrabs

[Ratty Sr.]

Iron Tower have released a new screenshot from Age of Decadence, showcasing improved lighting, redesigned interiors, overhead floating text and another biting Oblivion reference:

Still no HDR, bloom, parallax occlusion mapping or rag-doll physics, though. Unbelievable. And what's with all the floating text? It's a total immersion breaker. Can't they, like, hire William Shatner and David Hasselhoff to say those lines?

floating text...

i hope only for thoughts or small sentences and not for the dialouges.

We've seen dialogs already. Check the interview.

I hope those floating letters get better contrast to background.

I thought Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne did pretty much all that can be done with mudcrabs. The industry needs to move on. Amnesiac loony AIs, pale kids with black hair hanging in front of their face, mudcrabs... we've seen these things a little too often now.

but hey, at least the textures even looked something like textures. AMAZING! Usually everybody has a few brown lines as woodtexture...seems like the brown lines of this project are somewhere else...

Except for the post-apoc backstory, this isn't very Fallout-ish material, is it? Looks more like Arcanum to me.

Bah, a dogs fart is more compelling than that.

Let there be lights, let there be shadows!
