Guild Wars 2

This games world is stunning and stretches far, wide, and deep. But something that bugs me about it the the way the sky looks. Its a minor gripe, but when i look out at the sky i feel like theres a roof on the world. is just seems so flat, it feels like theres no depth to the sky above me. and it makes the world look like it’s more closed in.

It’d just be nice if when I looked at the sky I felt like I was on a huge planet rather than standing in a giant geo-room with a painted ceiling.

granted, the sky looks different than in most MMO’s but I started to like it.
The flatness comes from the clouds which seem to be floating way to close to the ground. If you take them away you’ll have your depth, or let’s say the illusion of depth.

I still prefer Anets sky-design over…let’s say Wows. In Wow you were just standing under a sphere and if you looked straight up you could see circles. Always made me feel like living in a christmas snow globe I don’t have the snow-globe feeling in Gw2. Ultimately it’s a matter of taste.

I guess that is why we don’t have first person camera: So people wouldn’t look at the sky that much.
