The sky is so amazing.

I actually have fun just watching the sun set in this game. The sky colors as you look around right after it sets are really darn realistic, then the stars slowly come into view as it gets darker. Awesome job.

Extra points for the sig. lol

Indeed, it's realistic. :D

I would love to see some comets during the night time. X3

Do you not think Eorzeans have had enough of things falling out of the sky? :D

Comets are not objects falling from the sky, that would be a meteorite/meteroid. Comets are icy objects that orbit the solar system and will pass by a planet. ;-P

They were not really a comet and comets almost never can hit any planet. Something looks like this:

Definitely! I was especially impressed with the storm/lightning weather - really atmospheric sound effects and awesome lighting. I'm really eager to see what they pull of with this engine going forward.

I agree on this one although I think the lightning lacks a little bit of rumble. It's needs a bit more oompf in my opinion. The Red Dead Redemption thunder/lightning weather effects, now those were awesome...

One only needs to go outside at night and look up. :)

(Please pardon my quickie pano.)
That's looking WSW at around "10:30pm" game time.

Also, a quick plug for the astronomy thread: The Eorzean Astronomical Society

Yeah watching the sun set in this game is amazing ^ω^ I love this game.

All the effects are amazing :D

Love the weather and sky. One time even noticed during a windy rain storm in Thanalan my characters hair and clothes were swaying with the wind. Awesome. And just a moment ago during a cutscene the weather was cloudy as I was trying to help a run away Slyph and when the evil Slyph attack it started to rain, all during the cut scene. Couldn't have had better timing.
