Thread: Garuda 1.0

Man, weapon skills had so much impact back then. Overabundance of flash, and obscenely weightless animations now.

Are we looking at the same weapon skills? >_>

Considering most of them are exactly the same as in 1.0 except sped up, yes, you've been looking at the same ones since ARR started, the majority that carried over anyway.

I dunno, the PLD in the video still looks like he doesn't even care what's going on around him.

That's just how Elezen specific animations were, kinda fitting.

His post totally went over your head.

Not really, he just didn't know every race had unique animations back then and probably thought they all looked the same, funnily enough that's the case in ARR with every animation being condensed into a single set due to PS3 limitations and/or laziness/resource saving when creating new animations. He's right about Elezen males looking like they didn't care back in the day though, it fit their lore character.

Wouldn't really call it PS3 limitations or laziness, more like time limitations.

They had everything done already (they even redid the entire database of items and removed the visual belt display and shaved down the female models..it's not time limitations, it's simply not wanting to do it.)

That moment you realize a lot of the base systems and content systems existing in ARR originated in FFXIV 1.0 - 1.23 and were set to be implemented if they were able to fix core issues in time.

Nope, it's still going right over your head. Please have a psychiatrist look over your Stockholm syndrome.
