graphics/animations

I recently have been logging into ffxi again after many years, and i'm just suprised at how comparable the graphics are to this game. I am even more suprised at how the animations sometimes seem better!

I would highly suggest taking a look at the chocobo running animations. I am hoping that the jerky chocobo running animations could take a page out of the xi book on this ... the xi chocobo riding animation is just so much smoother.

I know that you guys are focused on rushing more and more one shotable content since you release the game too early again, but i really hope that graphics/animations are on your list to get a better world feel in the game. As of now ffxi feels 100 times more 3d than this game ... maybe it is the lighting?
