The new concept screenshot is a real-time in-game render!

So it's a downgrade thank that all i needed to know i guess i see how the game look if it look too much like shit i just quit. Right now the game look awesome i can't believe they could not do something about it without switching the overall look -.-

I knew when yoshi-p took over his idea was to make it more western and change the overall game to his liking this is why i want tanaka or someone else. It does not even stand up too the look of final fantasy feel at all it look like a western game they better off calling it something else when it get release for PS3 then final fantasy xiv. that just how i feel about that picture it does not look as good as now i don't understand why they could not carry that over too the new tool they using if that really how it going to look they going to piss off a lot of ppl but i guess they don't care because they trying to get wow players which would just quit and return back to wow or blizzard new mmo oh well it was fun while it last i stay long enough to see more info on the new look maybe ingame video and then i make my mind about staying or not.

I seriously doubt you even know what the "Final Fantasy" feel is. Also, Tanaka had his shot and it's because of him we're waist high in choco dung.

The new graphics and UI look like an improvement to me, and the interface feels more "Final Fantasy" than it does right now.

Look once again i can care less about the UI i can change that too look like FFXI like i'm doing now like FFXIV making my chat log big and setting it how i like it. But you can't sit there and tell me the graphics are a improvement from FFXIV now? If playing at 720p at high setting with DOF look awesome i wonder how my game would look at 1080p. It's not improvment when it come to the Chars if they telling us the hair and stuff may not look the same -.- it not a improvements from today ffxiv and ffxiv 2.0 the only thing that is a improvements is oh look shadows and lighting work now Don't know why they could not done that with the new Tool without losing the feel of the game looking at the screenshot when it came out both me and my gf and friends thought one thing "WoW,aion,rift,tera. not even talking about the UI talking about the coloring and the art work.

They made crystal tool work with FFXIII "Ya i know it's offline game" But they could at leave convert the type of art work over to the new one.

Tanaka said many time they needed more time and even under yoshi-p it going to take other 1year to even fix the game so you can't say that Tanaka had a shot when they did not even give it too him just left so it could save the game. He said in a interview the game not ready for 2010 i don't know how many time the dev said it but thecompany never care or listen that the company problem not the dev team. It's costing even more money just to fix old ffxiv and making a new ffxiv. The matter of the fact is the crystal tool was the issue in doing anything and the cheap servers if the old main team could use the new stuff i think it would look the same as today but still have that type of UI i be fine or even if the new team could have done that.

neizero: i play ffxiv for hours it's not that it just luck i never had luck in ffxi i did endgame for days at week and never got anything beside black belt and few good items. I just had really bad luck in ffxi and even in ffxiv when it come to finding a good linkshell or drops or just the chance of getting something over someone else. But w/e there no way i can make you believe me on that.

they provide too much information, yes its useful, but its far too much

Thats the thing... you can have as little or as much as you want.

I could get 100 addons that give me so much information I have no idea what to do next. Or I could get the 5-10 that I find the most helpful for things that maybe slip my mind (buffs running out for example) and increase the potential I have to be a good player.

I think some people are beginning to think that addons only tell you "Do this NOW!" "Do that now!"... Addons can be 'Collect all your mail with 1 click', 'Send mass mail in 1 click', 'Sort item list', different UI look and feel. They don't even have to provide information.

so instead of getting better you want addons to toss information at you that you should know

and I never said that there werent other addons that are just for convenience or design

That was just an example, I have no clue what type of addons you would need for FFXI as it's relatively slower pace and not too many skills that you need to do.

But for example... again WoW.... playing a Warlock if I was displayed the exact tenth of a second that a DoT would fall off and knew the exact cast time to reapply that helps keep DPS higher. Losing one second on every rotation can be huge in terms of overall damage. Not to mention you could "spell weave" by having addons that told you server lag, which let you stop casting 75-80% of the way through a cast and still have the spell go off because there is lag. That is useful information that I would have no way of knowing on my own.

Again we have no idea what the addons are going to be... right now I don't think they could tell me anything that I would know, other than "Your ability is off cooldown".

You guys should probably start an add-on thread so you can stop derailing this one.

The quote from the OP says it's real-time rendering...
