I appreciate this game had its faults, so perhaps not being nominated for "best rpg" in general makes sense. But you are out of your damn mind if you believe that it doesn't deserve recognition for its artwork - environments especially. There was not a single area i wasn't in absolute awe of; each environment held its own essence, atmospheric ambience (listening through headphones at 3am was like walking through a besutiful, yet ethereally haunting dream.)

Each place on the map held it's own singular universe within itself. Glistening forests of Arlathan, rich and tingling with ancient magic. Suave, sleek rooftops of Treviso on the precipice of a new dawn, the sun peeping over the buildings whilst stars still glistened against the indigo. Ripples from the rain on crumbling concrete streets of Minrathos (and the stark shifts in aesthetic look, tone and feeling depending on a huge, early game choice- which also creates dramatically different plays, rippling through various aspects of the narrative.) The bubbling, oozing, boggy trenches of the Blighted Wetlands, thick with fog and yet, blanketed in cosmic starlight.
