Hidde Glamours Locally (& other graphically immersive options)

[Krotoan]

Feel free to "argue" about my points, but I wont continue talking to a wall.

funny.. I was feeling the same way since you haven't addressed any of the points I mentioned even though I carefully replied to everything you said and will answer and repeat:


1. SE doesnt add immersion breaking glamours or gearsets. That means, any combination of gear doesnt break immersion either.
What SE adds to their game is considered Canon. However when you're playing an RPG, part of that fun is making up your own story and immersing yourself in playing it out. That's what people are talking about. Not canon lore, IMMERSION into their experience. You can play a merchant who only cares about money, you can be a cruel sellsword adventurer who only is out for their own good, you can be a do gooder saint who helps everyone who asks, it's up to the player to interpret the game. If something ruins that experience it is breaking immersion. Please learn the difference.


2. it doesnt improve performance or loading times, because characters still need to be loaded.
Just wrong. Loading fixed models and textures for everyone of a certain race/job means less is loaded into memory, meaning it loads quicker and has more memory to deal with other things. This is basic game programming. One asset multiplied a hundred times is more memory efficient than one hundred different assets loaded once.

3. its needs to fix old systems first before adding new features/options/etc. Otherwise its a waste of time and resources.
They already don't wait to fix old things before adding new things. Again provably this has been the case since the beginning. Again just wrong.

4. glamours never affect your gameplay. They are just glamours.
They affect my enjoyment and engagement with the game. As mentioned before they also technically affect performance.

5. hopefully, SE still ignoring these forums.
you know that means you too right?

6. there is no problem at all.
You might want to bring your head up for air once in a while. All that dirt on top of it is bad for you.

I leave this picture of some NPCs (found in the Gold Saucer) here:

You mean the ones in the entirely optional side content and in no way connected to the MSQ? .. Yeah they're great and add ambiance to the fun and games casino environment. Wouldn't want to take them with me to fight near gods though.


You still don't seem to get the part where being in the game doesn't mean it looks OK to everybody in every scenario eh?
