Where are the more environmental objects we were promised.

The point of the slide wasn't "We are updating Thavnair to look like this", it was to showcase "In the graphics update, we will be able to populate areas to a far greater degree" without showing off the spoiler zones that actually had this treatment.

They mentioned a few times older zones will get the visual updates later on, same with older gear and npcs...

Wasn't very clear. They should be able to go back and do as they showed in the image as there is no subtitle or caption that says "concept". They can do this.

So are the new zones sufficiently cluttered like in the example they provided?

They said they will go back through the expansions updating the older areas and NPCs through the patches.

So, ARR areas still don't look good for example. A lot of gear is still pixelated (including a lot of what is worn in the viper quests). Gear now just looks more blurred in comparison to the things that don't, because of the comparisons that now exist in the same scenes. We were actually told to expect this throughout the 7.x patches while they go back updating older things.

So, they may do this with Thavnair but it will likely be in a patch if they do.

Wow thats just messed up. They’ve got to fix this.

It seems like a lot of the plans for the graphics update will be added to previous expansions over time while its already in for DT zones.
