Anyone else feel cheated by the 3DS' graphical capabilities?
And, shit, I don't even own one.

Agreed.
Though honestly I'm not fully sure what they were trying to go for with these graphics... does it pop out better in 3D?

online co-op, mic chat, etc: this game will def test the 3ds' online capabilites.

This looks like the Untold Legends of the 3DS launch year.

This game sure looks like crap compared to some of the other releases coming out this year. I thought Square Enix was supposed to be the king of souped up graphics. Although the gameplay seems pretty consistent with what they usually have to offer. =P

This isn't Square/Enix developed; it's by 'n-Space', presumably aka Square London, i.e. a separate studio that they happen to own. No real reason it should be the same as their in-house games.
I don't think judging the graphics based on this trailer is really appropriate; they looked poor, but in this video quality (eh maybe there was an HD button I needed to click) I couldn't really tell if it was a stylised thing or a just-plain-bad thing.
To be honest I'd be interested in the game except it seems to really be a co-op game and I have no friends.

Played it at E3. It was actually... fun. Kinda. They are doing some really ambitious stuff with the online portion (DLC, voice chat, multi, etc) that will be exciting if it pans out.
The dev that demoed it for me was friendly and helpful. I have enjoyed some of n-Space's stuff. *shrug*

This looks interesting. I like that you can play with your friends and it has an mmo feel to it.

This is looking good. I'm looking forward to some great co-op looting and monster smashing.

Man, they really seem to love the whole "swing the camera around" direction, eh?

So I'm confused, is Square remaking Warcraft 3 as-seen through an N64 graphical filter?
