As some of the longer playing GW fans will know, the character select screen changes it's surrounding area's graphical package whenever a new GW1 game is about to be released. Now, sadly I'm not one of those long time players, I've only been around for 14-15 months, and the character screen I had when I joined was the one advertising Nightfall.
But wouldn't it be cool if you had the option to switch from the current GW:EN Character screen theme to say, the factions one, or the prophecies one, just at the click of the mouse? It wouldn't change anything about the game, no possible exploits or anything, just the look of your character select screen. It cold be done by pressing F11 (Options) in character screen or else-where in the game, and just having a drop down menu somewhere in one of the tabs with the game titles as the graphics names. (Prophecies, factions, ect).
I think it would be fairly easy to do, and if aNet wanted to they could just put the option on the UI while in the character screen instead. Because I know first hand that the mist on the GW:EN screen can be annoying for those with graphics cards that aren't very good. With my old computer the mist wasn't very clear at all, and it obstructed my character models. (Not that I have a problem with this now anyway, since I have a new computer, but for those who can't get one)
I'm not 100% sure on how the older graphics looked before the NF one, but I hunted on google a little and found ones that look like it could be them.
Anyway, for those that would like to see what the older screens looked like a bit here they are:
- Prophecies (Taken from Google)
- Factions (Taken from Google)
- Nightfall
- Eye of the North
