"graphics score than simply the outward appearance"

Sounds reasonable, yet you are still holding Redemption to a higher standard of results even thou it looks better graphiclly, even the animations, than others at the time.
Considering Nihilistic rebuilt the engine to be capable of doing a completly different gender than the engine was designed to do and created the best looking RPG of its time, seems extremely unfair.
Not to mention they did the Multiplayer funtional visually as well, with the same great look and style, which to date has not been toped, in a White Wolf style Vampire game.
It also means there was room to grow the engine more in sequals which Activison completly screwed up, just as they have for Bloodlines.

To me it seems like your saying, as an example that because Sith Lords was on the same engine it should get a higher score grapiclly than KotOR since it was using more grapic intensive because they pushed the older crapper engine harder instead of using an updated version with room to grow.


"hardly fully utilized for what it was capable of doing"

Possibly, yet can you ever think of another quake engine game made for that 3rd person/behind view or any RPG that looked better at the time?
Please if you can think of a single one let me know, as I would truly like to play it, since I am still a fan of Redemption as well.
