Well, the female has a shadow and it looks fine but, she's the only one... which is kinda weird. However, they
look like they're in a cave anyway so... really we should be complaining that since they're in a cave the chick
shouldn't have a shadow.

/discuss

Actually, if you look closely, they all have them. when lighting effects ignite near them, or land on them, you can see them. lighted objects in passing dont seem to cause ray tracing, which is really nothing to be alarmed at, no current generation game uses realtime sub object ray tracing.... but when they do, turn on the sexy. rift does a great job with lighting in my opinion, simply amazing, and i hate that game :P

Look...

...they're in a cave and we don't need any shadows in a cave. Shadows in a cave with low light make it a blatantly terrible game
and I won't be buying it because of this.

PLAY WITHOUT SHADOWS!!!!

I won't say wow clone since it probably adds some good stuff from a story perspective, but man MMOs now days are so been there done that. Everytime I see a new MMO now days I don't see cool swords/armor/weapons...etc I see numbers, stats, and an equipment grind as a method of true long term progression.

Now with star wars old repulic, doesnt look like much changes in that but the story aspect might bring questing to a new level we havn't seen before which could be great since i've heavily enjoyed the bioware starwars games for their story. So if I get a mmo wrapped in a single player bioware game of similar quality ill be happy for a while.

I am skeptical they can pull it off, but its bioware, master of story telling games. I also HEAVILY ADMIT that i really just want to multibox a bunch of sith. People can get angry but ill just respond back that the sith are evil bastards who devot themselves to finding powerfull ways to kill you heh

Pretty much spot on. I don't think wow clone is even a valid term with any game. the ENTIRE genre is cast in a mold and I think the level of story telling will push other developers to push other areas, and some new blood will be welcome in the waters.

And I too am planning on boxing a group of sith... just sounds sexy
