Old Weather Animation Graphics - What do you like more in the Old Version of FFXIV?

[Tonkra]

The models from version one did look incredibly ugly. The LIGHTING omg, it's almost as bad as a lens flare over the top of it too.

Nope character models in 1.0. were indeed far superior over the ARR character models. you havent played 1.0. right? The clothings also have lower texture resolutions. unfortunatley i have no comparison picture for it. but i saw once one good example.


Character Models comparison:

Moogle:
ARR:

1.0.






Gaius:

1.0.



Brother E-Sumi:

ARR (huge downgrade if you ask me) .. he lost his"soul" completely :

1.0.








Kann-E-Senna:
1.0.



ARR



Urianger 1.0.



Titan
1.0.


ARR




Well maybe a better lightning can do wonders... we also miss bloom effects, unsharpness effects etc (people who dont like it could turn it off).. i myself liked it in FFXIV 1.0. back then.:




But as you can see the character models and their textures were more brillant (and timeless) back then in the old version.
i'd love they bring back some of these brillance with the introduction of DX11 Features.. i wish this really bad..

As much as i love ARR i loved also many parts of 1.0. (especially the atmosphere of the openworld)
