Skyrim HD Enhanced Terrain Mod Improves Distant LOD Textures & Overall Image Quality

Skyrim
Now let’s be honest; one of the biggest issues of the Gamebryo engine is its distant blurry textures. You see, due to how this engine works, distant textures look blurry as hell. This was also one of our main issues with Oblivion, though modder QARL released – back then – an amazing texture pack for those distant textures. And since few people have addressed this issue in Skyrim, here comes modder Hritik Vaishnav with his HD Enhanced Terrain mod.

China’s World of Warcraft Theme Park Opens Its Gates

World of Warcraft
I seriously don’t know who is crazier; Blizzard for not offering WOW’s license to this theme park or China’s organizers for not acquiring the rights? You see, a new theme park opened its gates in China and features big and enormous statues, inspired by Blizzard’s MMO. It also has roller coasters and it will cost you 30$ to get in (so waste no time if you are near Changzhou). And it looks epically amazing. In fact, this could very well be the only theme park I want to visit right now. Since I can’t though, I’ll have to simply rely on mere images to satisfy my need. Thankfully, Reddit’s user ‘FrancescaO_O’ has captured a lot of shots from this park, that can be viewed below. Kudos to our reader ‘Ghost Rider LSOV’ for spotting it!
