I say get Fable 2 regardless of what you get. I just picked up Sacred 2 and I plan on getting Fable 2 even though it comes out a week later. Hell, the only reason I ever got an Xbox in the first place was for Fable.

Oh no not this argument again.
See Neverwinter Nights' graphics, which is older than WoW.
Ok maybe this is off-topic, and I'm sorry for that, but it's not completely off-topic. I mean, we're criticizing WoW here so that you know better which one of them to choose

I completely agree with you on this one, Ash. Graphics don't mean much (he says after installing the elite texture files for Sacred 2...) and we are getting off topic.

VS
I know which one I think looks best and most magical.
But I guess its a matter of taste.
Oh, and Sylvanas Windrunner was the former ranger general of the High Elves in Quel'thalas.
However in Wc3 Arthas raised her as a Banshee and after the Night Elf Illidan used a powerful artifact to destroy the capitol of the Scourge (aka Icecrown Glaciar), the Lich King, leader of the Scourge, lost control of many of his undead including Lady Sylvanas Windrunner (who had possessed back her old body).
Sylvanas then gathered the "free" undead and they begun to call themself the Forsaken. Later, with the help of the Grimtotem Tauren they managed to "join" the Horde and also managed to "invite" the Blood Elves to the Horde.
This was Sylvanas in life: 
This is Sylvanas in (un)death.

Hmm... how fortunate for you that there are no ultra-powerful gnomes in Deathknight armor on that pic Xerox

Might want to resize the pics a little, Xerox. Even I had to scroll over to see the WoW one fully.
I will say Blizzard did a fantastic job of capturing the spirit of Warhammer in World of Warcraft.

What is wrong with Gnomes?
They have existed since Warcraft 2 (gnomish sub-marine).
I dont mind Gnome Death Knight. All races makes sense as the Death Knights are former heroes who died and was reawakened as cannon fodder of the Scourge.
And I know about the pictures, but im to lazy to resize
I just copied them from wowwiki.com and google (searched "beutiful wow/never winter nights 1 graphics").
And as I said before - all Blizzard games (including Starcraft and Diablo) are kind of "cartoonish" because it makes them run good on even the oldest computers.

I'd say the first pic looks far nicer. Either the second one's deliberately blurred or it's been jpegged too much.

Also, look at how the bridge texture just slices off into the forested terrain in the second picture. The textures on the tree trunks are also clearly stretched to their limits.
It does have better lighting, though.

Here's a NWN pic:

Ah, that's where I heard from her. She's the Ranger Arthas kills in the Necro campaign, right?

Yes, that is she 
Lol Asheera that picture (in my opinion) looks super boring and ugly Look at the Dragon... I can also take a high detail screenshot (look at my undead Sylvanas - full of detail).

It's not a dragon, it's a Manticore
Also, look at the ground texture in that undead Sylvanas pic - has it been done with paint or what?

Comparing NWN and WoW? That's like comparing substance and style.

Is it important what color the ground is?
Its not like you look at the floor when you play
And it of course looks better in-game when its not resized and zoomed in.
