The thread on Crysis having worse graphics than KZ2 had me looking at multiple videos and seeing an environment that looked like it was going to be uniformally miserable looking throughout the game. All I could think is how much Helghan sucked and not sure why anyone would go there. The trailers are now showing the variety of environment, which makes things more enjoyable. It isn't a case of having bunny rainbow world, but how about SOME green, or some winter somewhere, or something, besides tons of dirt and grey. This is a VIDEOGAME, not some high point of drama in a war movie, just an action film. I will say there is potential for a great story here. I happened to see through the intermissions from the original Killzone and opening intermission also. The environments were also varied in the original Killzone. It had snow, and was on a spaceship, and also trenches. It wasn't just grimy and dirty cityscape. Will KZ2 be at least as varied as the original Killzone in its environments?

KZ1 took place on Vekta, a lush planet. Before they invaded it, the Helghast were forced to stay on Helghan. The horrible enviornment forced them to wear the masks to protect themselves. They weren't known as "Helghast" when they first arrived - Visari basically gave them the name, and encouraged them to fight to take back Vekta.
If Helghan was as nice as Vekta, the KZ devs would probably have to find another excuse for the recent wars.
