    If the game is good and immersive enough (and it seems like it will be), the video card in my mind will kick in and compensate for any "deficiencies" in game graphics. I was totally ignorant of those sprites in STW - I saw real men fighting.

    Is that mind Video Card ATI or Nvidia? I have to get one :) . I just hope it runs smoothly. I know some guys with Nvidia mid/high level cards like mine were having pretty significant FPS drops. I would like it to look very nice but more importantly want it to run smoothly.

    I don't quite have a problem with this, other than the memory of ETW looming around, but there seems to be a serious issue over at TWC and the original forums over the DX11 thingy.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    I'm of much the same mind, as I myself don't have the technical knowledge to appreciate the distinction between DX9-11.

    Well that is just a little annoying. I'm sitting here with my copy of DAII waiting for them to get their DX11 lives sorted out. Now Shogun II comes along and say's wait a month before you can play it up to your PC specs. This is frustrating.

    I understand it's only for a small cross section of the market so fair enough. I'd prefer to see them spend their time on more important aspects. I just hope they have.

    EDIT: Crysis 2 also is not supporting DX11 on release day.

    Something larger at work here it seems.

    All it does is make your stuff marginally more shiny but I guess whatever works for you.
