Thread: FFXIV 1.0 Running Animations

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sRbf0HCAGqc <- you tube video of the animation for those whom never seen it.

I would love to have the 1.0 Running animations brought back. Since it was removed because of gameplay reasons, they should make it available out of combat. Who else misses it? :P

It does seem like SE threw the baby out with the bathwater on a surprisingly large number of things. When I first joined ARR, the general impression was an utter disaster of a game that was thrown a way for a good game. The more I read on the forums, the less sure I am of that. It had tons of huge problems to be sure, but it seems like every other day I see someone mention something about 1.x that sure sounds cool but got axed in the transition. Boat rides, animations, music (and of course, butts) etc.

I do. I miss it quite a lot. I think it helped add a bit immersion to the game, including giving your character some life.

I just wished it was still in ARR in some form because I personally feel our characters are too static and robotic.

Things you have to do to make one fail game into a good one I guess...
Gotta remove fluid running animations and the behinds lol.

I used to play an MMO with a similar stop pushing run -> character slows for a few steps -> comes to a stop -> goes into idle pose. But they only used the movement out of combat. I think there quite a few aesthetic things about 1.0 that are missed now, and this animation is one of them.

That lean when turning though, that really bothers me. It looks so... off. But I guess maybe that's just me. XD

I support this
