Wish Beta 2.0 Impressions

HomeLan Fed has whipped up their initial impressions of the newly launched second phase of beta for Mutable Realms' Wish. An excerpt to follow:
Graphically, the game's engine is quite solid and compares well to the current cream of the crop like World of Warcraft and Everquest II. Since the game doesn't use zones there is literally a ton of square footage to see and explore with some well handled water effect textures and some of the better looking trees we have ever seen in a game. There are some lighting effects that are impressive; in one location we were in what looked like a wooded area surrounded by purple fireflies. Oh.pretty. The character models for both the playable characters and NPCs were good, but not quite as good looking as the environment.
