Meanwhile, Blizz:"Oh this will cost you a raid"No, Blizzard. It will cost you one guy's salary.
I'm sure there's a good reason that they don't (otherwise surely they would), but I'd love for Blizz to just pay this guy to allow them to take these and throw them in the game. They look fantastic!
I remember when I made a reddit post saying that some of the older mounts should get a HD facelift update...most people agreed with me, but some wanted to send me to the deepest dark pit because they took it as "erasing the old game"
i realy dont know why ppl. want everything remastered. This Game is over 10 Years old. I love to see how it has Evolved in Models and Struktures. Just let the Old stuff as it is cuz its a Big Part of it. Just think: "Oh man Have a look how it was 10 Years Ago".
I want his paladin steed remake..
I really think this guy does some good work.Not sure about the optimization (the biggest problem is probably the 3D chains), but I think the mesh he has can be optimized in a matter of a few minutes, so it's not like it's that far away from being an implementable mesh.His updated Nightsabers were cool too, and reminded me of why I used to love Nightsabers during Classic, when I was younger.
TBH I think the reason why they don't update some of the old stuff is because if they started doing that they would have to update the entire old world which is A) an extremely large project that will not benefit the majority of the playerbase (when was the last time you flied in Desolace?) B) some players actually like the old graphics because its extremely nostlagic for them, and they might not necessarily want to play classicStill though, there are many new mounts that use the old models with updated texture, like the new DF ones. Lizi pretty much looks like an updated kodo
blizzard why dont u hire this guy
Surely there can't be players out there arguing for old triangles in the name of nostalgia? This argument sounds like a misplaced hoarding problem (no offense intended, I'm definitely guilty of it too sometimes!). I think its a real shame that we have hundreds of mounts in the game that I very rarely see and personally would also never use because their graphics look like they've been shrink-wrapped. I would love me some updates!Since we're poking this (old) can of worms, I'm gonna go ahead and open the lid a little bit:I fear that WoW limits its self too much by keeping all the old dust around, and while a modern graphics-engine overhaul sounds dreamy ("How amazing! Photorealistic textures, and Moonkins that we can smell from 45 yards away!"), I gather that the game doesn't just 'translate' into a modern graphics engine and parts of it need building from the ground up (goodbye transmog collection). Yet we can't improve the game by standing still. I think a modest team focused on remastering the oldest of the live content to continually improve the game would really do wonders for WoW long term and maybe even delay it's retirement.Where will we be in 5-10 years? Can you imagine if the older parts of the game were as good as the today's expansion, or if today's druid travel form looked as outdated as the old triangle-cat looks to us now? On the other hand, it may end up being bought by Fortnite and converted into an exaggerated cartoon style.
Hire this guys blizz pls! We need update models to HD for all wow models plsssssss! You already have dragon models just need re-skin some and put it in old mounts or creatures.I think that only one person can do it, no matters if this is a slow work but its ok if we see updates every patch for example...
