Too many flashy abilities?

[casker]

Wow, butthurt SE defense force no criticism allowed

The flashiness is way too much. Even gathering turns you into a supersaiyan. Some of the abilities take up the entire screen. Now imagine being in a party.

they just need to make some of the FX smaller.

Has nothin to do with a defense force bro. It's fact that people complained that the animations did not represent the over-the-top feel from Final Fantasy games, so they have clearly separated animations to have their distinctions. Did you guys really feel like they were over the top and flashy?

This game needs to release already so people can stop creating topics out of boredom.

I've literally never seen people asking for effects to be giant and take up the entire screen, but here are people saying they shouldn't be. And not all Final Fantasy games are this flashy. Actually, none of them are, maybe for ultimate abilities but not low level stuff. Look at low level FFT spells or something. They are composed, sweet, and to the point. FFXIV is like turning a basic attack into a purple whirlwind that takes up the entire screen. Simply triggering sprinting gives you a chakra blast.

And the animations won't even be clearly separated at this rate. They are just different colors of giant flash that will all start to look the same.

It's not out of boredom, it's criticism. Trying to say people are just bored is one of SE defense force's excuses.

Nope, you're bored, and others are too. Maybe I watched the wrong video or something, please direct me to one where the effects take up the entire screen and doing all this stuff you claim.

"I don't agree with your opinion so you're part of the "SE Defense Force."

I expect this argument to come from you a lot...

It's not about disagreement. It's because he said I'm just bored in an attempt to diminish criticism.

And in your case it's because you said people like OP lead to the game not progressing. Actually, it's the people who try to ignore criticism and let things slide who keep the game from progressing.

[casker]

I didn't say you were bored at all.

Nope, you're bored, and others are too.

You have a really bad memory.

And boredom is irrelevant. We should be glad that people have the time to bring up various concerns.

Oh yeah for sure that's what i was thinking too. In another forum i posted "Super Saiyan" comment as well about just using the sprint ability. I feel it's too flashy for such a low level. I did like the conservative feel to 1.0 honestly compared to this. and yeah in 1.0 they could have been a little more flashy...but only just barely in my opinion.
