It might look better texture. I agree the engine will perform fine. Just dont expect that kind of grass because i believe they are almost all individually drawn
You complain about FFXIV grass? Skyrim has better! :(

If I had to sacrifice minor aesthetics for performance, it's a trade I'll gladly perform. -
11-20-2012, 01:06 PMShougunIts not that bad lol I've got my skyrim running like that. It takes freaking forever to set up and there are some incompatibilities /faults in skyrim programming that cause it to crash every now and then though lol.Quote:

11-20-2012, 01:12 PMShougunMinecraft has other reasons why it plays slow - grass is cake processing compared to the cubes lol. Its really not low spec even though it looks low spec.Quote:

That skyrim with 100 mods looks fantastic :D If ARR could have that in the future, i will quit, as i don't have enough money to purchase a very out of this world high end pc :P

11-20-2012, 01:17 PMShougunI'm not sure I agree with the point :PQuote:

Make a sucky grass model for eh computers but there are a lot of computers out there that can handle much more then what even SE handed out in FFXIV 1.0.
Things like flora decals and density are often sliders in games - I see no reason why they cant do that now -
11-20-2012, 01:22 PMStanislawBest looking does not necessarily mean it has to have the best graphics in all categories. We already all know that the renders are of lower quality in ARR compared to legacy, but the lighting/shadows more than makes up for it to make it a much better looking game graphically speaking.Quote:
