Cartoony art style, hell no we won't go

[syntaxlies]

I think it's time for Square Enix to open up the floodgates.

Glowing, pink angel wings? ✔

20ft long sword that transforms into five other swords? ✔

..Who needs a consistent art style!

Therefore forums will always have more negative threads than positives.

That doesn't mean there will be a thread for everything. For example, if the weapons weren't so oversized I am pretty sure people would still find them cool, but there would be no negative backlash as there is currently. People would like them, some more, some less, but it would only come down to personal preferences. Such is not the case here.

HAHAHA...you don't surf these forums much, do you?

Depends on the sense.. people who don't like things tend to post more. If I don't like something I'm going to let SE know because this forum is for feed back.

But on the flip sense people who do like it, or who do enjoy the game will not post as much or make as many threads. This is due to the fact that they like was SE has done and don't need to post to complain about anything.

Therefore forums will always have more negative threads than positives.

Same premises as in RL people are more likely to call Customer Service to complain about a company, than to compliment them.

I post a lot (well... yeah, we all know that) but I've not once complained about anything in the game *apart* from the annoying foot-fall noise in the market wards, which is easily bypassed by turning the sound off.

Some of us just like to chat, y'know?

What i liked from those new weapons is that they look that you made them from ifrit, that shows a lot of what crafting and killing mobs are in this game, you can take a beast an make a weapon with it, yes the bow looks alittle bit over the top but i like it, i would prefer to have mats than full made gear, i dont like everything silver plate handed, besides maybe you could get an ifrit sword +3 if crafted, think about it , I agree getting full made gear if you take the weapon of the boss you killed like a garlean commander.

EDIT: and about what firon said is true there are a lot of weapons and gear that dont look any close to reality and were great, how badass would a DRK look if it had a great sword like that?

The issue is not that the designs are bad, the issue is they do not match the current game at all.

More or less I feel they look way way out of place compared to everything else.

Because up until now the adventurers never fought a primal, the equipment looks made out of him so it's kinda normal that they look like something new in this world where all the gears were made out of materials gathered. I don't see the issue.

It would be awesome if you could get Cloud's Buster sword, which granted you the Knights of the Round ability.

your forgetting about how many people dont like them glowing, hence this thread
