Facetracking for your toon

[Yumi_Hibiki]

at first it sounded nice but then i saw the video and even with the stiff animations of everquest 2 it looks horrible, half of the time the mouth just hung open or flapped about aimlessly...
its an interesting idea but not at all suitable for FFXIVs art direction and they already confirmed at several occasions that they don't want in-client voice chat.

also, its really just a pet peeve of mine but, "toons" go in "the dip", characters go adventuring

[Laughlyn]

Also *smack* We don't use the T word here!

And please don't say toon ever.

It's an MMO term. Same as character and charry and some of the other weird abbreviations I've seen for the word. If one is good, so is the other, I would think.

but to the subject, it would sorta be useless except for some machinima

[Ingolf]

I think it's cool, but I don't think I'd like using it for long.

Would be WAY too much for comps to handle, plus, wtf "TOON"???? No...

[Halisstra]

Can I crit enemies with my "O face?"

[Viritess]

I think its pretty interesting. Especially when you understand that we get alot of our language ques from facial expersions. Also we read emotions through faces. Not that this could be so deep and acurate, but is is another step towards a level of virtual reality.

To be on a VIOP and have your voice carried to others, and your character's face follow your expression is atleast entertaining should you desire to use it.

Some times you guys are really no fun. It pertains to advances in MMO and gaming capability, FF14 is an MMO after all.

(also: Why the flip out over "Toon". Does op's slang term somehow offend you guys? From here on i shall arbitraily decide to make fun of anyone who uses Char or Character since I think everyone should refer to them as "Virtual Personal Incarnation"

You guys could make 4 year olds shake their heads in disappointment some times.)
