GameWatch - This new FFXIV concept screen shot, is this real time rendering?
YoshiP - Of course

What's your take on this? Does the graphics in the screenshot look different to you? Is this because of the new graphics engine? Will it be more or less demanding in terms of graphics and performance?

Discuss.

This HYPE is JUSTIFIED then!

I really like the lightning and shading and contrast, but it might be a situational factor

if that is real time graphics, then wow, but i'm sure it's not.

It's in his notes. What's to discuss?

Given that that model (Chimera) is currently in the data...yeah it's not that hard to believe, also look at their latest games. There's no doubt likely image filters applied, but the graphics itself are what they asked about.

That's kind of terrible. There's a lot i hate about that screenshot. For one, I hope it's a boss fight, toherwise I see no reason to have that many people in a party. What's witht he crap around the map? Multiple toolbars? I can't see what that stuff is in the lower right. Looks very non-controller friendly, sort of like what a friend had up in wow, when he was just mashing buttons left and right. I hope it doens't look like that at all. I like the simplistic look, less is more.

Yodhida said they are going to allow player aps or whatever they are called. Add-ons. Just think how awesome it will be if our UI looked like this.

They have said that with 2.0 they will have two separate UIs. One for keyboard and one for gamepad. Both UIs will also be heavily customize-able with addons and such. I don't think you have much to worry about.

I love how everyone thought that was just a painting or artist's rendering lol
