we need a high res texture pack as an optional download

[AsahinaMyLove]

no thanks and bad idea! Imagine the high res texture: your PC or PS4 system has way more to handle than before for graphics and even more in raids with 24 people! The System can get behind resulting in Frame rate drops, game freeze, system overheat + damage, or even client crashes. and.. uhh... I dont want our nice game gets minutes of long loadscreens like FF15 has...

I mean, if you are playing on a 5 year old laptop with integrated graphics maybe. Its also optional, as in, you don't have to download it.

Notice the OP said optional dlc. Meaning you can uninstall said dlc without consequence. If the patch hurts your PC then simply uninstall it and problem solved. I for one would love to see better textures on this game. When I try to take up close screen shots the horribly pixelated textures makes me feel as if I'm playing on low settings.

I can understand your concern because I can relate, as my current laptop will not run FFXIV well at all with a GeForce 555M GT 3GB RAM. I have to play the game on my Alienware now, and I just upgraded the graphics card and everything (1060 GTX 6GB). Like it was mentioned, a texture package is optional.

I haven't gotten much dlc from the mog station. But if this was done correctly and a one time op in I would gladly pay for this one.

Also my 1070 feels like it's going to waste on this.


As for raids. Don't let us use it for content like that till echo out for it.

Anyway, in the subject of not wanting to wait for other people to load, it could be locked behind minimum system requirements.

In the very least it's easily arguable that the older character textures could use reworking.

I just installed a GTX 1080 TI and I'm not impressed with how everything looks lol.

I just bought a new pc in february and have a 1070, and i thought that was bad I cant imagine a 1080ti.

4K textures is an overkill.

Agreed, one thing at a time

They never reply to any thread like this. And if they do they twist it around to talk about FPS and nothing more.

I really hate they talk about FPS when really you don't need more than 60 for this game. Sure I run above it but for better graphics I'd happily drop some FPS.

Yep exactly! Im not one to fuss over FPS so that issue isn't on my mind what so ever. They are trying to appeal to the masses which most only care about FPS. We should at least have the option for better graphic settings. I don't see how having it as an option would be a bad thing?

We are suffering due to the whole 1.0 flower pot issue and I think enough is enough! We as FF fans enjoy FF games partly because of the graphical quality they usually give us, so to keep avoiding it even for an MMO is not right.
