Story:
“A long time ago at the peak of the High Kingdom of Pandura, a group of seers looked into legends of a powerful force believed to be the origin of life; this they called ‘Gan’, though modern peoples know it as ‘Divinia’. The ancients sought to utilize Gan as a weapon; in doing so, their perverse intentions spawned the malignant ‘Gan-Ti’, or ‘anti-life’. Infusing Gan-Ti into artifacts, the godlike High Kings ruled the Panduran Archipelago with an iron fist.
Eventually, rebellion arose and the Order of Archkeepers was formed of the most noble warriors to free the people. They managed to capture the relics of Gan-Ti and cast them into the fiery pits of Mt. Suvius near the shores of Oria island. With the evil power of the relics suppressed, the monsters that terrorized the countryside were slain and the old Kings overthrown. Peace had come.
As of late, however, rumblings have been heard from Mt. Suvius, and the wise have come to fear an eruption. With a reckless young King having just assumed the throne of Oria, will the powers of Gan-Ti again fall into the hands of the most powerful, or can a new force arise to combat the inevitable?”

Well personally I like the models. It's kinda refreshing to see SOM remade without any of that anime feel that usually distracts the team members to look at more than actually working because they're obsessed with it. :P
That's actually pretty close. I think it might be the textures. Nightsage put it pretty well.
I guess its the textures and the models the textures all look too rough. It's as if the models all have sand paper for skin. The models themselves look ok I suppose. Then again thats all IMO and am only speaking for myself.
Could you please say in detail why you dont like them?! Otherwise I can only take this as a bash against us.
You cant say "oh this is crap but I dont know why" O_o
probably the cause for your allergic reaction is the way the models are rendered, or the fact, that these are quick and dirty promo renders - here's nothing new shown - but we are making progress and the detailed new models should be ariving soon :)
Something about these models... Something I can't put my finger on, is really making me hate them... I don't know if it's just the way they're rendered... they way they're modelled, or maybe it's the skins....
Something about all of these models just makes me want to vomit... Someone help me put my finger on it.... or at least agree with me that something is very wrong...
wow a Secret of Mana mod, damn that game ruled! Just checked out ur new screenshots and they rock, that 1 on the left is a model of one of them "chobins" right?
Anyways if u make HL2 - Secret of mana or something v much like it i will congrats u and maybe give you money ;-)
Wow, those new models were sooo cuuuute!
the models arent the greatest i have ever seen, but the skins are very good
