Increase more colors for Eorzea?

[geniusprime]

Comparing two games that are completely different in style and gameplay serves to improve? i think not. either you like this type game or you dont . dont try to make it something its not.

Oh I forgot that Tera is third person single play sci fi shooter while Final Fantasy is just an MMO.

As for the topic. Yes the game can do with more color variation. As it stands right now it is very bland. It looks good but its still bland and needs more variation to the overall color scheme. I don't see why some are so angst with the addition of a little color.

add color if you want but I'm fine with the way it is now, i actually like it. Maybe put some more colorful plants in or somthing I guess.

Oh yeah ive seen those, anyone know when they are going to implement those camps?

Colors? It's fine on that front. We just need some more activity and life in the environment.

Other games do this in a variety of fashions. One common way I've seen is called ground clutter; usually just tall grass and such in fields. FFXIV has a little bit of this, but the rest is just very flat. I've always felt like a simple feature like this could really help the game's atmosphere.

Those are quest hubs, they're far of few, ment to be like the "camps" we get we now. Anywho I do think XIV is very dull and needs more colour, I miss like ff10,12 and 13, very vibrant.

As for comparing the two games, I'd rather compare XIV to TERA than what the developers do and compare XIV to WoW...... While TERA and XIV are 2 very different games, the World, the Colour and what the OP and this thread is about is the same thing in both games. But ofc both have different art styles.

As much as I love TERA I think it goes over the top a little in some areas, eg: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tg_pFLqRby8 feel like am on acid.

I like the "reality" of the colors, but I'd also like some more color in the cities.

Gridania is almost 100% Green and Dirt.
Ul'Dah is brown and brown and gray and brown.
LL is gray and blue.

There's also no wandering NPCs in the town...they all stay in the exact same spot 100% of the time >.> Also we need more strip clubs. FFV had 'em in spades but the closest we have are dancers in the Mining guild.
