    Either way, Neptune's argument is invalid, as Xenoblade only looks decent because its using stick straight things that would be flat in real life as well, and thus they look okay, where as FFXIV has gone creative and added a variety of plantlife which has various shapes besides straight and flat, and makes it slightly more obvious how 2D it is. All Neptune is arguing for is to replace plant variety with plain old grass. No thanks.

    I think he's asking to replace those clearly 2D plants in the 2.0 screens with something more full, alive, and camera constrained.

    Oh yeah, and on that point the grass in Xenoblade ANIMATES! OMG! For free too.

    Um no who said that? Look you have NO IDEA why I mentioned Xenoblade. Pay more attention. Or at least quit yer bitchin' and ask for an explanation.

    Lol U mad, bro? You're really bent out of shape over some grass, dude. Which isn't even grass. And I like the part where you completely skimmed over the fact that Xenoblade isn't using any special technique, that the only real difference is that the plant they used is a naturally flat plant anyone, so who would notice when its flat in a game?

    Skimmed? It IS using a special technique! That's like the entire point of this thread! They should change the technique, yo!
