Ship of Heroes calls attention to its ‘gorgeous’ visuals and how they serve game design

One would expect that a game set in a sci-fi superheroic setting would have a lot of dynamic things to look at, and Ship of Heroes is certainly making that case in its latest dev blog and associated video, both of which call attention to the “gorgeous game” being made and how those visuals hold hands with its overall design, all while making some big claims.

“There are not too many PC MMORPGs where you can join a 50-man raid and rain fire, throw lightning, or blast beams of dark magic on a giant boss together. Or even hold a costume contest with 50 unique costumes in a line. Of those, fewer still can compare to SoH visually. So, in our market niche, we are one of the best looking games available. And our top-notch art direction is a big part of the reason why.”

The blog further talks about visual storytelling in relation to different parts of the FHS Justice, alien ships, planetary locations, and the places where various enemy factions will be fought. Heroic Games also talks about the importance of its UI design and making sure that the game looks visually impressive on a wide assortment of PCs and graphics settings. Of course, pictures are worth a thousand words, so that video awaits below for players to decide for themselves.

In tangential news from this same dev blog, SOH has announced that it has reopened donations in response to player requests after the studio announced its second quarter release window. Previous donators can also modify their existing donations if they so choose.
