Overall the game is pretty good, but I was wondering why the clouds are so static? I mean there is no cloud movement at all from what I can tell. EQ from 1999 had more dynamic clouds than this. I know this is a silly thing to wonder about. I think I notice it more because I play in FPV.
I always tell myself I'm going to try tanking dungeons in FPV one of these days...
But to answer your question it probably wasn't worth the resources to create a dynamic cloud system. Though it would be very neat to see different cloud shapes take form in a random pattern based on chaotic forces driving the atmosphere (i.e, a type of "butterfly effect" in the game). Maybe we'll get something like this in Final Fantasy XVII for the PS5.
O.o
I've never noticed...more amazed that there's weather, rain, thunder, lightning, dust storms, etc: without crashing the game.
