WoW runs better, yes... But... This is what a WoW character looks like: http://www.cjritter.com/wp-content/u...Human_male.jpg This is what my SWTOR character looks like: http://i.imgur.com/srW9kZz.jpg I'll stick with the latter, thank you. You can keep all the ape-armed, glove-fingered neanderthals to yourself, or zoom in on their low-res blocky faces and see them beautifully at 60 FPS

This^ "The one reason why..." is a bad concept. The truth is that there is no ONE reason.

I dont understand your point? A fully geared WoW character looks the same as a fully geared SWTOR character.

Barely keep 60 FPS average on fleet with only high settings, random tearing and fps spikes. Load screens in SWTOR are 4 times as long, even with an SSD AND a 6gb RAM drive. I can't even imagine trying to play this game on a normal computer. I'm playing on a laptop with V-sync. FPS jumps between 50 - 60 FPS. Without V-sync I run SWTOR at 100+ FPS. But you cannot disagree that the engine really does hold the game back. Meanwhile Betheseda thinks they can do better with the same engine for TES:O. I'll be sure to have my popcorn for that launch day.

I don't think SWTOR has sun shafts, but WoW certainly does and it looks great. There's also directx10 functionality in WoW, but that doesn't affect the looks, I guess. The biggest difference, I'd say, is in model textures, including armor pieces - they look miles better in SWTOR. You are still dealing with cartoonish and grossly unrealistic and frankly uninspiring visuals in WoW vs environments that look gritty and real in TOR. Not saying TOR is perfect because it is far from it, but the realism is much greater here than there.
