On the other hand World Of Warcraft looks too colourful to me. Well, colourfulness isn't bad as such, but combined with its "comic-like look", it is something I just can't stand.
"Beyond God & Evil is imho one of the few gmes that made it - imho - right : Combining both colourfullness with no-so-bright colours within in-game enviroments.
Of all recent RPGs, Drakensang met my "need for colourfulness" to the greatest extend - which was one of several factors which made me becoming a fan of the short-lived series.
BTW have you played a game called outcast? (

Graphics look a bit dated now, but imo the game feels gorgeus still in it's own way.
Judge for yourself:
