I’m so glad to see more people take the plunge and buy the original game. It really is superior. Hope you enjoy it.
Hi Guys,
Early Happy New Year Greetings!
Got TSW! Sealed in box brand new with registration key. Will report my findings as a ‘veteran’ SWL now playing TSW as a newbie soon 
What can I say?
OMG! TSW IS BRILLIANT!! Love the combat and the graphics both of which feel more detailed and real compared to SWL; all helps to make TSW feel more atmospheric than SWL. 
I feel to have missed out big time in not having played TSW since its inception.
It feels odd playing the game without any other players around though. Does anyone still play TSW?
Would be great to meet up with some TSWers playing the original game.
As TSW is a subscription to play model, guess there isn’t much point in me subscribing if there are no other players around now. Can’t see that I would get very far doing dungeons, PvP etc without any players 
I don’t know if there’s something up with your settings, but the graphics in SWL are the same as in TSW, unless you’re talking about combat animations?
If I’m not mistaken, the Secret World had tessellated textures in DirectX 11 that were removed for Legends. Other than that, the only significant differences would be combat animations and ability effects.
Certainly an odd thing to point out. Kingsmouth in particular received a huge visual overhaul (especially the night time version) and looks much better in SWL, as do the character skin textures.
Thanks Ceruleana that Discord link very helpful
