Opinion on the graphics? - Cindromexo - 16-03-2008 04:43 PM
Hey Sims 3 community.
I've just looked through the pictures of Sims 3 on http://snootysims.com and I think they are horrible.
It seems like Sims 2 is so much better than Sims 3.
What's your opinion on the graphics?

I honestly don't like the graphics that much. I think they look too much like TS2 graphics, but maybe more screenshots can change our minds, we'll just have to wait and see.

Are you kidding the graphics are great. Besides even if they are âbadâ thereâs 2 reasons for thisâ¦
1) magazine scans have low quality
2) The game shown is just a Beta (prototype)
Check out the living room in the page below. Notice the light coming into the room? Look at how the very bright light is isolated and how the lines in the window (I don't know what there called) create a shadow. Marvelous! Well if still don't like the graphics that's ok, but I wanted to make sure you saw this picture. I have to admit though, the first time I saw the pictures it looked a little consoleish, but when I saw this picture, wow.

You know Verno77 you are quite right, because as I was typing I was thinking about the scanning as it would come out low. Maybe the graphics aren't that bad afterall but I still wanna see more screens so I can make my decision

I agree completely with Verno. I think the graphics, for this stage in developement, are pretty good, and that they will definately improve with time.
I'm very impressed already with how the houses/lighting/world itself look. The sims... They look unfinished, but I see potential for them to look fabulous once completed.

Hmm, I haven't seen that one yet, how could I have missed that? Anyway, i'm convinced now, that living room screen is amazing and it really does show a difference from TS2 to TS3 now.

Honestly, there's only one graphic I saw that bothered me.
That graphic was the sims themselves,
not the houses or buildings, etc.
But the sims they look like they had gone a totally different way from sims 2,
as if they aren't improving the sims 2 sims but making totally new ones.

Hmm, I'm not sure about the sims, I think they look quite good, but that's just my opinion!

Ha, consoleish is my word! >
Anyways, the improvement was huge from Sims 1 to Sims 2. There was a horizon in the Sims 2 unlike the Sims 1. Also, the sims do look kind of odd. All of the ladyâs cheeks look puffy.
