Goodness gracious !!! :(

IKR? Why did they have to make Merlin look so ugly? :( Arthur's kinda ok but Merlin looks horrible.

They look horrible... you could easily use the characters as scarecrows. And have you seen the girls, they look even worse (if possible).

Very cheap budget? Or they want to win a contest for poorest drawing in the business?

[gealach_ros]

The girls look strange and Gaius like his evil twin.

Instead of developing such an ugly game Fremantle should've let the cast read audio books, that would've been something I'm actually interested in. :/

Merlin in particular looks rather creepy, there's not a bit of the 'young boy/man who came to Camelot to face his destiny' in that figure.

I've seen way better fan art.
Ditto. Even a chibi!adventure would've been better than what they created there. I miss the magical/fairytale-y feel looking at these game characters and after all that's what Merlin is about.

These are just plain hideous :(

[gealach_ros]

They are. :(

The game is all about making money. But they want to make money by this? I have to laugh out loud. I don't care about the rest, as I don't have much interest in those characters. But Arthur and Merlin? Oh. Let's forget Arthur and Merlin are played by Bradley and Colin here. The cartoon is NO near them in the least bit.

"Bossa Studios' creator in chief Imre Jele said, "We have carefully crafted the game to capture the very essence of the world’s most famous sorcerer." (IGN article)

Do we watch the same series?

[gealach_ros]

The Merlin DVD box sets can be spotted in the background in that BTS video but I'm not sure the developers took the time to actually watch the show.

For now we've only seen stills, let's hope 'in motion' the game isn't quite as hideous as it looks atm.
