yeah, I wanted to give the impression that there was very little but a wisp of evil smoke in there.. no real body. I also wanted to reflect his speed and evil nature which I felt was never present in the orriginal. I always thought he seemed very un-intimidating from first glance.. it's what he could do that made you run away..
In fact when I first saw it I wasn't sure if it was friendly or not as there was nothing menacing about him to begin with..
I could change it from the side though.. if people think it's off..
Hmm it kinda reminds me of something...not sure what though...possibly the Xi Vius things from ME/UP in EQ (and if that makes no sense then just ignore it lol).
I very much like the thin side few - it hints at something you do not want to see without the hood... you could think about changing the eye colour when he casts magic (green ?).
The screamers look great - agreed. Conflux is up to Zyx - I'll playtest again this weekend and if I get past the first ugly critters I may give him a review of my impressions. As far as I know, Beowuuf is doing the same, so I'd say you can estimate it will be a Christmas present ...
almost a shame to show off some of the graphics, its lots of little touches like this and some mechanics that make conflux a breathe of fresh air...
and yes, i'm playing through it just now : )
I remember the very first time I saw it, in the team dungeon graphics...i knew the updated screamer graphic, it was the SIZE of the things...i walked aroudn the corner and this forest attacked me...scared the crap out of me : )
