Full In-Game Graphics Adjustment

[DonMega]

Can we please see the Full graphics adjustment put in-game when it is possible in the future.

What on Earth are you talking about?

I think he means the ability to change the video/graphics settings in game rather than having to exit the game and go through the config menu.
This would be great for me in terms of going from full screen to windowed mode tbh - most games have the ability to do this.

Oh, PS3 limitations. Having to endlessly compromise because some people just insist on playing on inferior hardware and with inferior input devices sucks but that's the way SE seems to like it.

To some people (to most people), the more expensive hardware is the inferior hardware.

Good luck playing this game on a 250 buck PC.

Not that this problem has anything to do with PS3, but hey.

I'd would like to see what difference texture filtering makes. I have it on highest but I'm not sure it changes anything visually

PS3 wouldn't have graphic settings. Everything will be optimized. Why does PC need it when every PC is a flux capacitor powered dream machine? Everything should be set to maximum by default to appease the master race.

If I turn everything on max my room turns into a sauna.

This problem has everything to do with the PS3. It was the same story with FFXI and the PS2.

If they want to make a game for a console, they should do that and not bother with PCs because a PC game that makes concessions in order to work on consoles with standard input devices (pads) cannot compete with other PC games. The end result is a really bad PC game (because it's limited by console hardware) and a less than perfect console game (because resources are wasted on the PC port).

As far as cost goes, a PS3 may only cost 250 bucks or whatever, while a desktop with acceptable FFXIV performance probably costs ~$500, but why would you ever buy a console if you don't already have a computer? So all the people complaining about not being able to afford a gaming PC probably already have some shitty laptop AND a PS3 for a combined cost that far exceeds the desktop they'd need to run the game.
