PS3 UI Screens

[Jocko]

You dumb? Did I say ARR or CURRENT FFXIV? Graphics on char/armor are 100x better, the armor in XIV is so plain looking(except AF which was added long after release).

Not at all. XIV has a fantastic aesthetic, easily the best aspect of the game. The AF sets were a step in the wrong direction, gaudy and pandering in order to supplement their tacked on 'Jobs' system

I really hope Square continues in that direction instead of bowing to people like you

Uh bowing to people like me when I have what? 50 posts compared to your 300+? Just shows who spams on here more, derp. If you think that AF armor didn't look great than just LOL. Although, the job system is total garbage, don't like it at all. Would prefer just 1 job, instead of how it is right now.

You seem to forget, the original XIV that did not have the job system and had MRD/GLD/THM/CNJ was not even like a normal FF game, hi where is WHM BLM PLD WAR etc? They had to do something to it because how it was noone understood why they did that. They prob got the idea from the person who thought of the "Job System" on the forums where they branch off from the armor instead.

Why are people just now noticing exp past lvl 50? You could see it during the gamescom demo.

PS3 version looks good, i'm surprised!

You can prob fill the XP needed for level 51 but not physically hit level 51, because eventually the level cap will raise.

I will never understand people like you. You think the graphics are inferior to Aion (maybe you are just so distracted by the slutty clothes that you don't notice how unrealistic everything looks) and you don't like the foundation of the class system. Those are two of the biggest selling points of the game, realistic graphics and the freedom to switch between classes; literally every other MMO fits the criteria of what it seems you would enjoy and yet you choose a game that is "broken and everyone knows it."

Or maybe you don't actually play, in which case, go away. There are people who actually enjoy FFXIV.

Uh I said the actual job system, you know the whole needing to /job on to be your job instead of just being it already. Hell I <3 how you can change job on the move tho, nothing at ALL wrong with that, I hate MMOs that you need to create multiple characters just to level another job(Thats why i played FFXI for 6yrs). Uh ok I don't play thats why I have almost every class 50, yea sure. Not sure why the hell someone would post on forums of a game they don't play, heh.

LOL!



LOL! LOL!!



LOL! LOL!! LOL!!!

Antony...... learn the difference between aesthetics and graphics.
Aion doesn't have high polygon count models, high res textures or use advanced shaders.

So your personal taste might lean toward Aions art direction, that doesn't mean it's graphics are better, which they are not.

Since you shared your opinion I'll share mine. Aions graphics are low res garbage, I happen to like FFXIV's art direction and will take it over Aions any day.

Didn't say anyone wasn't entitled to there own opinion, don't be hatin' cause mine ain't the same as yours. I didn't say at all FFXIV graphics are bad, I'm just saying there is better when the person posted that FFXIV was the end all be all in the graphics department. Although you might not share that Aion looks nice compared to FFXIV, atleast you can set it onto high settings without either needing an expensive GPU or you can cope with the insane lag that it brings.

Although you can look on MANY review sites and Aions score actually beat FFXIV in many aspects. Not saying I'd play Aion over this, because Aions community is even worse than this due to the PVP and the fact its F2P now.

Like I said, everyone is entitled to there opinion so don't hate cause I don't share the same as you. Good day to you sir.

People are expecting too much from a game that still uses DX9 in 2013 :P
Imho Aion looks a bit worse than ARR but far worse than the current FFXIV. Aion is just more colorful (lots of purple lol).
If you want a game with really nice surroundings you should look at The Secret World. But it lacks character details.
The massive detail is what's making the current FFXIV sluggish for some people... well and the huge lag. The game doesn't scale down detail over distance, instead the stuff just disapears. If the game showed all players in range in Uldah you wouldn't even be able to move. SE needs to create an engine that can scale details depending on the situation. A scene with 10 characters can't be rendered the same way as a scene with 1000 characters, unless everyone looks derp
>.<

In my opinion, 2+2=5.
