no 1.0's animations looked nothing like in those video's each animation was unique along side the racial uniqueness, XI a game that's nearly a decade old makes XIV's animation look like child's play.I don't think we've gotten any real good looks at what the final battle animations for 2.0 will be like, and the fact that XI's animations were different for each race isn't an indication of quality. I do know that 1.0 battle animations look just as good as the ones in that video, and getting your knickers in a knot when you haven't even seen the finalized animations yet seems really premature.
ALSO: Burmecians are awesome. I don't think I'd mind a race based on rats. It'll give the Miqo'te something to chase after, at least. xD
You seem like you're conflating variety with quality, but at least wait until they finalize the animations before you get so picky and meticulous over it.
Can we go back to bunnyguys or something related? Don't let them sulk in a corner.
BTW, Yoshida-san did name Banga as something that is already too close to beastmen. He said he wanted to keep it at the line where you can still tell it's a PC at first glance (at least from what I understood)

when a game you designed over 10 years ago makes your new animations look bad you know you have a problem. ill wait and see what 2.0 brings to the table i like the new spell animations in 2.0 hopefully weapon skills were given the same love. that speed up garbage they showed at e3 isn't going to cut it.
If it comes from Ivalice its going in a pie, unless its reptilian, then its going to have to be curried.
If I said I noticed a difference between the different race's animations...A good example of why XI stands hand over fist the game with the best animation quallity.
I'm personally utterly shocked that the XIV devs decided to go totally counter to this with the direction animations are going in 2.0 as a whole.
I'd be telling a lie
You didn't notice that each race does something differnt? Hell some of them do outright flips where others don't? I had a long post but the internet decided to eat it...Just for reference look at Soulshatter for the most difference. Each animation was hand crafted for each race.
Every race, does everything the exact same. I hold a sword the same way someone a quarter of my size does...
Actually I'm not sure if there's anything else to say about it. I made this thread so that I wouldn't have to make a useless comment in the J2E translation thread.
Still, I think the bunny guy could use a hug, don't you? xD
If they add bunny ... we will have alot of Bunny female in coliseum gear doing a playboy party in a Free compagny mansion lol
