I have to disagree with this, those models are really ugly. If anything just port the FF14 models to 11 and call it a day, those ones are nice. Especially since the mithra's tails are not connected to the body armor dats, and they can have different color tails!
If they ever update FFXI graphics, I hope they attach the mithra tails to their head's dats so we can get different colored tails based on hair color.

Really? According to everyone by focusing on content they are just screwing everything up. Maybe they should just leave the game alone and focus on making it look pretty. Seems like they'll lose less customers that way.

You can't compare the two one is successful already and the other, not so much.
So yeah, no.

I'll take some HQ Mithra butt to go!

The models in FFXI are amazing, among the best I've seen in any MMO. I hope they never mess with them.

They already have...their in FF14.

If they made Mithras look like FFXIV's generic catgirl maids I would rage.

..messing with mithras is silly...

Uhhhhh yeah you can. THey're both MMOs. They're both RPGs. THey're both Final Fantasy games. They're both made by SE.

If you want to talk about comparing how successful they are, you need to take into account a lot of factors, sure, but that doesn't make it impossible, it just means a little effort will be required.

If they focused on making everything pretty and decided not to fix these NPC freeze-ups and blackouts I bet you'd quit within a week.

You know they already have high detail character models for FFXI, they are used in the character creation screen. Why can't we use those in the actual game on the PC version?

I'd be satisfied with the same models in a better graphics engine. Better shading, lighting, reflections, a bit of HDR, and better texture filtering. That would get us a long way.

I'm also not sure if the character creation models are compatible with all the gear models we have in the game. They might have to redo a lot of equipment to make it work.

I don't have a problem with FFXI's graphics. Sure it'd be nice if they did some quality enhancement, but I'm sure that would introduce problems for the PS2. For a game from 2001, FFXI has aged incredibly well.

e. The idea of copy/pasting the character creation models is kind of sort-sighted. What about everything else? Unique NPC's, monsters, environments, architecture, etc... the game would look horrendous with random high quality characters. It would have to be an evenly distributed overhaul.

Because the character creation screen isn't the actual game engine, maybe?

Can't stress this enough. My mithra's creation model looks like total crap, but I'm sexy ingame. ^_^

Could use some DX10 lighting and shaders. They wouldn't even have to touch the models or textures. They're already highly stylized and artistic as it is.
