    TES 4: Oblivion
    I'm failing to understand "why" this thread is continually being bumped back up to the top recently. This forum is about our game "Neverwinter Nights 2" and our art and graphics.Supa-Mike, we all understand that you think Oblivion will be a great playing and great looking game. But, let's just let this one go...please. Anymore discussion about Oblivion should really be done on their forums, not ours.With that being said, I'd also like to put some things in perspective and check back in with reality. We've been in "official" development for well less than a year...and will ship the game with less than 2 years worth of dev time. We've rewritten the entire graphics engine from scratch and continue to do so and make refinements. Oblivion has been in development for how long? I'm asking because I really don't know the answer. But I would estimate at LEAST 3+ years? Furthermore they started with a pre-existing rendering engine by the name of GameBryo to build upon.So, with that being said I'd like those who are caught up in this Oblivion vs. NWN2 discussion to check your expectations of what NWN2 can realistically deliver. It's like comparing apples to oranges. Give me 3 years and then we'll have a legit comparison and something worth discussing.
