They heavily implied it. They specifically mentioned that character models' hair would look "different", which to me means that they're reducing the complexity/poly count.

And ignoring the fact that the developers have previously stated that they run the program on standard setting and take pics at that setting rather than on the max is somehow less blind? Why do you believe they have completely changed this long standing precedent? There's being objective, and there's being obtuse.
See, the thing also is 'looking worse than they do currently' is also relative.
For one, I don't think they new graphics look worse at all. Maybe it's my glasses, maybe my own graphic card, or hell it might be just my own attention span. But I couldn't notice a single portion where thew new screenshots have anything, even textures, worse than the game I run right now. Heck, if I strain a lot I might even be able to notice but the other effects like the non-1000000candle-lamp lighting effects and overall better usage of color make it vastly difficult to care about it.
So, thing is, most people you see here defending it are mostly just trying to make you see a reason to like it because THEY don't see a reason why it's negative.
And we're 27 pages in and NOBODY has been able to link this quote. If you want people to stfu so badly that you keep on posting about the 'haters' just go find the link, post it and watch what happens. If I had the link, I would. I've even tried searching for it without success, just so I could see if it's true or not. Cause believe it or not, some people have a hard time trusting people on the interwebz.
Stop running the game on low/medium settings I guess?Quote:

Dude, that message been on dev tracker months ago. That's hundreds of posts. Excuse us if we don't have another life just to find it
ps: that's the problem. Some of you. Then you look at people like ingolf and bobbygunz (aka gifthorse, the most reticent troll from alpha until now, every time banned and still around buying the game again every time) and turn angry. With a good cause

Be careful when wielding axes. It might lead to dismemberment.
Apparently. If you disagree with someone you're a troll. If you point out any flaw you're a hater and if you try to justify your arguments you get flooded with people saying that you're 'entitled'.
I hate the fact that the XIV community (especially on the official forums) is considered one of the worst gaming communities out there.
You seriusly understood what i said? I said DEV TRACKER, aka spoken by a DEV, not an internet pinco. And that' months ago, hence it can't be found easely. If you're so unwilling to trust some people on internet, take a lot of your time and search it. It's there, but covered from hundreds of posts
