Hot screenshots, damn i love the view distance..

from Elemental Forums

Idk, i didnt find any "SCREENSHOT THREAD :D:D:D" topics in the first two pages so i thought i'd just post some anyway :)
I absolutely love the views you can get in this game if you tilt the camera just right, though sometimes the perspective is...... Wierd. I dont know why, maybe because we've gotten so used to a mild fish-eye lens in most games, Elemental feels rather flat, but sometimes you just hit the magic angle and WOW.....
Beauty! :')


The coast to Pariden's empire, beautiful water :')


Extending Pariden winter street, with a Magnar outpost, and the Kraxis coast in the distance.


The Kraxis desert, or rather, coastline. Absolutely love this lighting.


Between Resolin, and Pariden in the distance beyond, lies the dark lands of Magnar Mordor :P


The lands of my empire of Abraxis, stretches as far as the eye can see. But what is the green sickening forest in the distance? :puke:


Why it is the Atlantean empire, lead by the redhead over-confident Francesca, her last bastion against the ever creeping darkness. :'(

 

Random screenies to follow.


Custom race Fay says hello, telling me how cool they are with the latest tech (nice bugged dialogue option which does nothing), as if we care :D


Caravan hell, early in another game, I literally lost TEN caravans in these woods lol.


The most awesome random-colored npc i've seen so far XD

Nice screenshots! I've always liked how the game has looked and your screenshots really show the game off in a good light. Just out of curiosity are those maps generated by Elemental itself or using that random map generator mod? :)

Awesome screenshots. If you only could make some sense out of the game tiles when looking from that angle. I still feel it's a huge shame that it's so hard to make sense of tiles in general without the cloth map view.

Very nice!

It would also be cool if the view angle could be increased even more so we could view the map from eye level.  It would be awesome to see a creepy forest and a majestic city beyond from the perspective of our sovereign. :thumbsup:

Yes photoshopped in the sense that i downsized them 80x50 pixels for a little fake smoothness =D

Say what you will about the game, the engine and art makes for some beautifull landscapes.
