I&#8217;ll be the first to admit that the art for Assassin&#8217;s Creed, Guild Wars, and other modern games is amazing.

We&#8217;re still a bit of a ways away from being able to launch a campaign, but I&#8217;m interested to get some feedback on what sorts of things we should be considering here.
