    The ilumination and water/fire effects are way better in 2.0

    Stop being such a graphic whore. Especially in a MMO

(And, I don't mind if they are nonlinear. It would be nice to have diversity)
    I think this is what we all want
    Better camera movements, better choreography and don't limit the animations to the emote list.
    Hildibrand storyline show that this is possible even with the new engine.

    1.0 had plenty of uninteresting and unnecessary cutscenes, notably the cutscene you saw every time you road a lift. 2.0 does a lot of cutscenes better than 1.0. For example, the Hildibrand story line. Much better now. There wasn't much to it in 1.0 other than abusing sound effects.

    I don't think that's what people are saying, in general. I think people are saying that, on a given middle-of-the-road computer set to the graphics settings that allow the game to run at a full 60fps, the graphics in 2.0 are superior to 1.0. At the highest settings, it's hard to argue that the graphics weren't technically better in 1.0, but very few people played at those settings. On the average graphics settings, I think 2.0 really shines compared to 1.0. Of course, I never played 1.0, so I'm really just talking out of my (scaled-down) behind.

    You certainly can't argue that 1.0 on the lowest graphical settings looked better than 2.0 does on the highest graphical settings. The image above (which reminds me so much of Meridian 59, the very first 3D MMO) refutes that plain as day. Comparing highest to highest is valid, but comparing average to average is valid too and a heck of a lot more relevant.

    This is all about graphic vs. Aesthetics. Watch the following video and resume discussion.
