graphics20 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe graphics of the game are praised for their beauty and high quality, particularly in the base game and the Caverns DLC. However, users express frustration over the lack of a true orthographic view, which affects usability in applications like Roll20, making it difficult to work with the 2D map exports. Despite the impressive artwork, the absence of this feature has led to significant dissatisfaction among players.
“The graphic quality is just amazing.”
“Beautiful models - the artwork for the base game and the Caverns DLC is very good.”
“The graphics look great, but the program is just too hard to use.”
“There is no true orthographic view; in your 2D map export, cells on the border will be bigger than cells in the center of your map, which makes it hard to use in tools like Roll20.”
“I can no longer recommend this program; it's been 3 years asking for an orthographic view and no update whatsoever.”
“The lack of orthographic (parallel) projection is a significant drawback.”
