Weather density sliders

Hello fellow eorzeans,

I'd like to ask what do you think about weather density sliders.
Weather plays a massive point in terms of atmosphere. So it'd be nice in my opinion to have a more indepth possibility to "control" the weather.

2 examples which bug me though. In Yanxia clouds appear in a certain distance and disappear completely when youre near them, flying.

Or eureka anemos the tornados disappear as well once you walk through them and you just hear the sound.

It kinda destroys the atmosphere there a bit if you ask me.

Is it a poor use of dev time or worth it?

Greetings and have a great weekend!
Aoi

It's not a bad suggestion, but I'm not sure it's worth the dev time, it's a very niche cosmetic change that involves more than the art department

Wasn't specifically refering to the art department either. Just a general asking what the opinion is on it. :)
But yeah, i guess the dev team has other priorities atm.

I would like to have such option in gpose, and even change the actual weather (because sometimes you can wait for hours before you will get the one which you want), but I'm not sure that there will be a big amount of players who need this feature.

I am sorry to necro this thread but with the graphics update and the recent discussion about too many particles, maybe it is actually time to give us more detail about the individuliasation of the graphics and how strong everything looks?

This is a sophisticated approach:

Weather strength -> 0, 1, 2, 3
Particle density -> 0, 1, 2, 3
Flora and fauna amount -> and so on

And so on.
Its just a thought, nothing more ^^"

I support this if we can make the weather even more intense. Like silent hill fog or weather just being denser overall

I am not saying the current stuff we have is terrible, by any means.
Just thinking about more indivilualisation for us players if they have the time.

There you go, it's in Ketisis Hyperborea. I'm sure if you hide the mobs and slap pyramid head, he'd fit right in.

I would love to have the ability to turn on the Odin weather in gpose, or well anywhere really. Its so atmospheric I want to play the whole game with it on :P (Guess it would look out of place in Thanalan though) And yes more intense fog and storms!
