Hybrid race

It is depressing to think that this game is nearly ten years old. Yes, ARR happened, but it was still built off the back of 1.0 and its ~2010 Crystal Tools development kit. They do a goddamn good job keeping things up to date, but there's only so much they can do as the skeleton of the game ages. "Spaghetti code" and all that, but it's true that it's an uphill fight to build on the game's original coding.

Pretty much. I have the same feeling. Even considering the 2013 release, it means it is technically based on what was possible back in 2010 since such game needs at least three years of development.
We don't even need to compare with the Unreal Engine 5 demo on PS5, Black Desert is enough to realize how dated the game starts to be. Even thought I like this game, it can't be helped, the game is technically old and can't hide it is somehow a "patch on a patch".

Not we can't have fun with old games (Disgaea 1 remaster looks pretty fun -dood-) but... Final Fantasy doesn't have this touch of crazyness; it is far too serious to get ride on the technical limits it shows more and more.
