Even with Graal's professional staff I don't think they can make enough 3D gothic baby heads to meet UN's needs.

No, the real problem with Graal3D is that it's going to take attention away from Graal2D and that is not good. Graal has been and always should be, a 2D game. If a 3D version becomes available you're going to be dividing the community both player-wise and developer-wise.
Honestly there are plenty of enough 3D online games out there... if I wanted to play those, I wouldn't be here. While it seems all exciting and new and great... it's not going to benefit Graal2D in any way... but instead it will hurt it.
Because I have a feeling if Graal3D ever gets released, Cyberjoueurs will put it on the front line of Graal and it's all you're going to see or hear about. The website would be changed to show the 3D pictures and graphics... the forums would have bigger sections for the 3D stuff... the whole central point would move to the 3D stuff and I just don't want to see that happen. Eventually it would end up as outsiders seeing Graal as some run of the mill 3D online game, with some sort of left behind, dying 2D version.
Sure, games like Zelda *cough* made the jump from 2D to 3D... but that doesn't mean a 2D version of Zelda on the Nintendo Wii would fail. In fact, it would do as good, if not better than a 3D version. I thoroughly enjoyed the Zelda games for the gameboy advance, which were in 2D. I just have this feeling that Unixmad is afraid people prefer 3D to 2D and is trying to put all his resources into that.
