We need upgraded textures or better graphical options.

They have already said that HD textures aren't a thing that's going to happen (a few live letters ago, pre-SB).
Mostly because the work involved is absolutely huge.

I call BS, individuals have done HD texture packs for parts of games like Skyrim and Fallout before. There are HD texture packs of N64 games on emulation. They all do this for free.

Its obvious the team does not appreciate good graphics, perhaps they are still comparing to graphics to FFXI or they know based on WoW and FFXI that it is not relevant to the games long term success.
