Please let that be sarcasm, which it probably is...if not;
Anything can be modified at any time, you could revise the games engine and or its various components if you wanted even after release, Alpha/Beta/Release gaps are the perfect time to re-do:

Cue FFXIV developer video for Alpha/Beta for the original release:

If i've replied to the wrong person 'sorry' might not have read the flow of posts right.

Oh lol on you. You think the looks of alpha was the limit their graphic engine could reach? Did you for example see Ul'dah pic from last letter? which uses extra shaders, and filters etc? Just cause they don't use HDR lighting in alpha, doesn't mean the engine doesn't have the function. It probably has that function, though they aren't using it in-game.
Yoshi said himself that he asked the graphics guys to fix the graphics for alpha, cause it wasn't high enough standard. Alpha is just bare minimum, but Yoshi demanded more than that; otherwise it would have looked worse. They can easily add skin shaders, etc afterwards. Did you for example compare lowest settings in 1.0, to highest settings? it's absurd difference. Alpha probably didnt have highest settings available even, so the difference between alpha, and released version can be immense.
Ya, just look at the lighting differences in previous post-link, and tell me nothing CAN'T change :)

^^; the (lol) at the end was supposed to symbolize the sarcasm. Sorry for being unclear! I was just trying to show how silly Valmonte's post about the graphics was.

We're talking about 192 for hair, 192 for eyes, 192... right? Not 192 everything combined? (Nice!!)

uhm i'd say 192 combined. i don't see why there should be 192 skin colors of Hyur...or 192 eye colors...or hair colors...
75% of the colors would make Hyur look like alien, or zombie.
