SE don’t forget certain complaints when updating the character graphics

[RobynDaBank]

As I posted in a different thread, better lighting in the character creation. There's always some shadows, some saturation, and even in the best one (Gridania) there's the leaves overhead which create some very funky fluttering shadows.

Yes, they should definitely listen to player feedback, shouldn't they?

I'm beginning to question your personality as to why your social circle are full of pictures like these.

I mean that's a nice wishlist but shouldn't they already have most of the updated graphics finished by now? The next expansion comes out early next year.

Some of the things I hope they implement


Additional character and clothing "bones" so that GPOSES/glamor and animations and cutscenes look better , especially long hair so that the longer strands fall/lift, bend/reshape/hide over/inside shoulders/armor , do not stay the same shape when you/npc nod/lean etc (eg long back strands of hair stay pulled downwards by gravity and not stiff like they do now - viera long neckline/shoulder hairs suffering the most from it)

Higher body/face topology so that shadows dont look hideous and jagged across faces/eye sockets

Better 3d teeth

Vastly improved shadow effects across the board - especially with DX12 and whatever tech Ps5 uses for shadow rendering/cascading capabilities.

Better Global and local Illumination.

DLSS 2.51+/FSR/DLAA

SMAA/TAA-v5 for non Nvidia Turing+ users

People still thinking this graphic update is going to be anything other than post processing effects?

I cant wait for it to happen tbh, I literally told so many people that it will literally be like shaders/post processing effects, and yet people expect a full overhaul of every race, every clothing, shadows, lightning and everything else around it.

They are in for a massive disappointment

Sure I'll say it as weird as it sounds:

Can we ACTUALLY have bare feet instead of the forced sandals we get when we hide them.

And on top of that, can the textures of said feet actually, y'know, look good?

If I want to walk around barefoot, let me. LIKE EVERY OTHER GAME ON THE MARKET.

And gods forbid I use sandals or any open toe shoe/foot piece.

[Erinellza]

I want body tattoos and separate makeup from face paints.

[Hanayumi]

While I expect them to eventually update character creation aspects, dont think it'll come with 7.0, graphic update (which primarily seems like improved lighting/shaders and higher res textures) and Femhroth for 7.0 so further improvements maybe by... 8.0...

[Tsumdere]

Removal of baked in shadow textures!

In particular Male Elezen have this problem where you can choose the fuller jaw shapes, and it will still have the shadows of an angular face.

Just waiting for the whole "We read all the feedback players wanted for the graphical update and added the most requested item on the list. The game now has improved jiggle physics"
