Gifthorse just posted a link, it isn't that hard to outdo ffxivs water so a simple youtube search will work too.

I know I can google tons of video of games with water, I just wanted an idea of what people thought was the best...
Yea, I saw his link after I posted.... ArcheAge looks like "Suikoden" on Steroids
I don't know if it's just me but it seems easy to make turbulent water look good... all the movement and waves cover up any inadequacies. Calm water might be easier to render, but it seems like it is also easy to mess up
