To be honest, the resource graphics aren't impressive (even in the prototype, or alpha if you prefer, they were drawn more interestingly – especially the coins with embossing instead of gold – but now they're just some columns that remind me of stock market quotes). The precious gems don't impress at all – they look like rock crystal… Where's the cut, I ask you? And the color is strange…
And I'm completely shocked by the sulfur, although maybe it's just a color distortion when taking the screenshot and the poor quality affected it, but it looks like a pile of dog poop, and the color is appropriate…
In short, IMHO, it's done rather crudely – without soul…

I’ll finish the resource info soon; I just couldn’t get good screenshots of some of the mines.

Mercury was the most surprising resource for me. :D

Mercury killed me the most :D

Seriously – couldn't they have depicted a chemical triangular flask with silver liquid? It looks like some weird thing for people with non-traditional orientations :D... Or, at the very least, couldn't they have left the traditional pots? In short, they should focus on doing the big things properly, instead of changing established minor details in an inadequate way...

By the way, the miniature image

looks fine, but here they really messed things up...

Mercury killed me the most:)

:eek:
And why is mercury blue:confused:
And what exactly did they change? I can't imagine peasants in Warcraft carrying these vessels instead of gold sacks:D Why change the established way of displaying resources?

Anyway, no complaints about the wood...

The ore, unfortunately, looks more like stones (marble) - it could have been made as a scatter or in a minecart...

The crystals will do...

Precious stones (gems) - that's where the devs messed up ;)... The English word "gems" translates quite clearly into Russian as precious stones, and precious stones are only considered such after they've been cut ;)... In this case, we see natural druses of rock crystal (which, of course, can also be classified as semi-precious stones - but only by a stretch)... Really, could they not have just left the old gemstones?

I already mentioned the mercury...

The gold is basically fine - except that on the map we'll find it in standard ingots, while in the miniature it's a scatter of minted coins... they should have unified it, because these miniatures are completely out of place...

There's no sulfur yet; I'd love to see how it looks on the map ;)...

Wood is good.
Ore, crystals, and all that other stuff – to hell with it!!!! Seriously, it's as if they're already found in the form of ingots or cut gems.... Crystals... and why are they even red??? This applies to previous installments as well... and they strongly resemble rubies, which are not crystals at all, but rather very precious gemstones!! Crystals are rock formations formed from liquid substances over millennia. That is, water drips, and beautiful things are formed from the sediment:D And gemstones are already millions and billions of years of compressed rock or volcanic lava, which hardens under the weight of the lithosphere and acquires the value for which they are all so greedily mined. Question: What the hell are crystals even needed for???!!!! Maybe to make drinking glasses out of them, like crystal.... in general, this has always interested me.
Ore. Here we see a pickaxe sticking out of iron bricks filtered from rock. Nonsense.
Gold is just AMAZING!!!!!:D :D Imagine: you're walking through the forest - and suddenly!!! you notice a light in the dark thicket!!! You run up and see a wonderful sight - bars of 995-karat gold with the emblem of the Russian gold reserve sticking out from under a bush!!!:D :D
In short, only wood pleased me.... and the stakes holding the logs, and the axe in them... in general, it's good, even if it's angular. I wonder, are the resource models also three-dimensional, or were they just put together in 3D Max and then screenshot? :D Why not just draw them beautifully???!! Maybe these are just prototypes?

Gold looks too much like butter, and dragonstones look like salt :)

Sulfur is here :) I just somehow forgot to upload it...

I'll also add some conceptual images for this theme:
These are, of course, a chest and a campfire - their functions remain the same.

Yes, indeed, the sulfur doesn't look very good. And in general, I thought it would be different... The resources shouldn't be cone-shaped, but rather nicely detailed! :rolleyes:

Wood is really without complaints. Gold - why not in ingots, do you think coins or sand would be better? Crystals - and why not red, at least for recognizability (by the way, I don't know of any precious stone that wasn't a crystal before being cut, and the definition of crystals is really messed up), with stones it's really strange, how to even describe it, even if they are beautiful, but I don't understand crystal clusters being used as precious stones. Ore is a bit rough, but it will do, at least you won't confuse it with anything. Sulfur is actually quite similar to the real thing, but this is one of those cases where realism can go to hell. Mercury seems to be okay, a closed, opaque vessel, although the color of the vessel should really be changed.;)
