ffxiv for ps4 in February but not even 1 mention of the dx11 client..

I seem to recall them saying that DX11 update won't bring better textures, but more lighting effects.

Yep, not sure why people think DX11 is going to transform this game into something else, it's still going to be the ARR we know and (love/hate) today. Textures will still be very low res (zoom in on some and see how pixilated they get) and allow for some better environmental effects maybe, not that the world has any meaning...

The gameplay will largely remain untouched since what they can do with DX11 they can do now in terms of it, for example we won't get new jobs just because they release DX11 or anything.
