Cartoony style graphics....

So.... this is a screenshot with the left side image taken from the trailer released todayish "FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn - A New Adventure" and the right side image is taken from the trailer released a few weeks ago FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn - Limit Break Trailer both of are from the PC version of the game as it is the exact same footage. The confirmed a while back the new graphics engine would use far less textures and even in previous screenshots (like the paladin below, just look at the spirits within) held that cel-shaded look

At least it looks like they addressed the saturation issue I was personally having.

We can clearly see they look the same except for the saturation.... which is sad.

Yeah I def. can see the difference between the two, Look at the "dare I say it" GRASS :P, one looks like a faded Green, and the other one has a Deeper Green.

Confirms PS3 Version? or Just a Low Quality of the PC Version?

But again, why?
Why put your weakest leg forward? Especially when it's not fully healed.

I know everyone is going to say "Oh My... Gawd"

But look at the grass here in the desert, and then go look at the grass in La Noseca areas (in 2.0 trailers)...

Why does La Noseca the super green plains have less grass then the desert? lol

I edited the post several times, sorry about that. I believe it is the exact same version of the game, not a weak pc or a ps3 version. It looks like they simply kicked up the lighting and increased the gamma.

I think people questioning more on this image


less polygon/textures ?

My point was everyone is just now making a big deal out of it and it has been the same graphics in each of the videos, that was what i was trying to prove. The old videos are just much darker and typically zoomed out. It was a strategic play on SE's part t not show off "too much"

I don't know why everybody is so hung up on these minor details when that LN are looks really bland in general. I really hope they've done more than add one 3d model to it because based on what they've shown us it looks just as boring as the current version.

Meanwhile Gridania looks stunning. The dip in quality between these 2 areas is shocking even when comparing 2 stills.
