Yes they do in fact exist, and I'm rather surprised no one has linked them here yet:

What is wrong with CCP not posting this sort of thing to the main page? Sigh. Any other links with more of these? Amazing.

Now, they did also note that we shouldn't expect that level of detail/fidelity in-game, but that's the general direction we should expect.

Did someone save the Gallente one? .-.

It was interesting because he had olive/swarthy skin...Gallente might just be mongrels.

If any of you are going to Pax convention, CCP will have a booth and be debuting a new trailer...I'm assuming for winter expansion.  Pics please if you go!

Oh yes, according to CSM minutes, new portrait gen will be coming this winter. But not Incarna.

Sorta preparation for it though, like Tyrannis for DUST

Not sure about that, because they JUST had the feature planning meeting for the winter expansion this past Monday (like three days ago). But I'm sure some thematic stuff will be there, at least, the way the Dominion trailer showed nothing from the expansion but dealt with nullsec sov fights.

[admin]Moved to General Discussion[/admin]

I think that the peeks of stuff we have seen have been exciting.

I have a few concerns:

1 - That the trend currently where everyone in a bloodline looks very similar will continue.

2 - That while they will have marvelous animations for the cloth and great motion capture, the models might look 'plasiticy' a la Everquest 2, or might have issues with like, the hair and the body seeming 'seperate' in a subtle, jarring way (something that seemed to be there, for me anyway, in the animation video. Maybe that's just me)

3 - That while tech demonstrations are great, it's far off, and technical constraints will mead something that people find comparatively disappointing.

Still, I hold a certain amount of faith in CCP to deliver a certain sort of product. It might not be bug free, it might eat your boot sector, but 9 times out of 10, it'll be pretty.
