The Beauty of Vanguard: Saga of Heroes III

If the quality isn't very clear, click "watch in HD" just below the video. This video is meant to be watched in HD.

This time I've included some things I didn't put in the other videos like blacksmithing, underwater fighting, artificing, leatherworking, adventuring parties, a boat ride...
Hope you like it!
Comments are appreciated, I will probably make other similar videos and will take comments into consideration when I do. Vanguard is a massive game and there is certainly a lot to make videos of.

People have asked about my computer specs so here are the relevant ones:
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 (OC)
Video Card: XFX GX-280N-ZDE9 (GeForce GTX 280, OC)
Video Drivers: 185.20 (XFastest build)
RAM: Corsair XMS3
Motherboard: XFX nForce 790i Ultra SLI
Monitor: LG L246WH-BN (24" @ 1920x1200)
Mouse: Microsoft Sidewinder
Mouse Surface: Razer eXactMat X speed
Keyboard: Microsoft Sidewinder
Sound Card: Creative X-Fi Elite
Operating System: Windows 7 (7068)
Windows HDD: WD Raptor (10k RPM)
They allow me to run the game at maximum settings at 1920x1200 with 16x forced AA (the game has no AA so it really really improves the looks, even just 4x or 8x will give you great improvements)
If there's anything else just ask.

@Xanerithe Glad you like the vids :) I'm not playing Vanguard anymore, but I might make some for DDO if I find some time. Also looking forward to DCUO and TERA... ;)

Anyone want to explain how VG is better than eq2?

[SubJunk]

@Laxmaster72 Both games are good. Vanguard is for people who enjoy a difficult game, while Everquest II has been nerfed quite a bit.

I will admit that Vanguard has the best classes, races, and look of any MMO I have ever played. how ever the lack of population and the lack of SOE caring about the game in general is what keeps me and my wife from playing the game...

*I hate to admit it but Blizzard does care more about there products*

but in any case This game is the best ever

[SubJunk]

@dregostyr Yeah, good post.

[sozcaps]

High polygon count and massive, detailed textures, but do they really look that good?

@PerceptualStructure PvP makes the game whole. It makes you have to play more strategically (taking darker routes, being smarter, etc). Trust me, as a die-hard PvP mmo fan it is truly immersible.

[PerceptualStructure]

@SubJunk Better Graphics, classes, races, raiding, combat system, grp harvesting and more. No PVP (i think pvp ruins MMORPGS cuz of balancing, play a FPS if u wanna PvP)

And yes, its much harder than any other MMORPG out there, but also much more rewarding :)

Sony seems to do this to all theur games. They either take a great game like SWG and kill it or they take a game such as Vanguard which has so much potential and go no where with it :( its sad but unfortunatly Sony is no longer a game creator in which i trust.

I'm really enjoying this game, played at launch for like a day and quit lol. the game looks and runs great now. Pretty much just 1 server now (there are two but the other one is not populated). Small community, solid game, awesome graphics with a good computer, and no kiddies like WoW. Just sold my Cata WoW account, playing this casually now. If you are looking for a nice change of pace, check it out! keep an open mind when you are playing.

I played Vanguard for a year from release. Was a very awesome game. Somewhere along the road after that first year it went down hill. Graphics went from future proof to obsolete. The so called "Optimizations" screwed that game up badly. Otherwise would still be playing.

[westfalkland]

Is this game worth buying?

[Achillies1800]

I have this game, but aparently they dont sell the game time cards in australia : /

[jackpipsam]

@Laxmaster72 VG isn't flooded with "OMG YOU CAN BUY THIS WITH STATION CASH!"
