Why does 1.0 models look better than 2.0+ models?

fixed it a bit.

Can a PC with the new minimum for Stormblood run 1.0 good at high setting? (because on low setting 1.0 looked worse than 2.0)

A game with better models than we currently have CAN run easily on your average PC.
PS3 is the only reason why we never had a graphical update, also, even by the time 1.0 came out, PC's where alredy superior than PS3 in hardware, ...And thus, i blame the PS3. And hell, even as it is the game is almost unplayable on ps3 on some dungeons, let alone raids.
Thankfully now we might see a graphics update when they drop ps3.

Btw, 1.0 had horrible optimization, and that was the problem, but still, if downgraded 2.0 runs with 15 fps on ps3, no way a game with better graphics models could ever dream on running on ps3.

We can blame the lack of more customization options on ps3 too, and many, many other things...And that my friend, is why MMO's are better as plataform exclusives, PC by far being the superior for this kind of game.

Agreed, there is no excuse for 0% texture upgrades once 4.0 is out. They don't have to re-do all the houses/buildings/crystals/pots if they don't want to, but at the very least, they should improve the character models.

I believe all the models themselves were reduced in size to something like 35% of the original 1.x sizes

I would love for AT LEAST an optional Hi-Res texture pack for PC (which I thought we were getting with the DX11 client...) and an improvement to the movement physics to get back to how fluid 1.0 looked. Little details like how the characters lean a little bit when turning, and the momentum shift when they stop running can really bring the game to life. Surely they still have the texture files from 1.0 laying around, and I'm sure the new ones were made at a much higher fidelity than what we actually got.

Like others said, we don't need every object in the game to be hi resolution, but at the very least the character models, armors and the GROUND need to be looking much sharper than they do. Hopefully this will come with the system requirement bump in 4.0

Starlight Celebration trees were infamous for actually handing out gifts: New graphics cards after they melted people's cards because of the high poly count.

Yes, return the old models, how they downgraded since... 2010(?) To 2017 is unbelievable.

I also loved the movement physics in 1.0 and the textures. I was playing on a desktop at the time though, so it wouldn't help me now since I'm on a low-end laptop. XD

There's no need to insult people.
The main concern was is that there's already a better graphic models in the game that they changed for a worst ones. Reasons - unknown, probably PS3(?).

Not unknown, and was stated earlier. Only the highest end PCs at the time were able to run the game properly without having it look like complete and utter crap, and it costed them big time.

I appreciate you for being mature about this situation, it means a lot.

Sarcasm isn't much better at defusing a situation.

Good thing then, since 6+ years passed and they decided to stop PS3 support, so, they can implement those back if they want to.
Even a potatoe PC can run FF XIV just fine now. (aside from Frontline and 24ppl raid groups, i guess).

If you didn't play 1.0 and experienced firsthand how poorly that game ran, even on good computers, you have no idea what you're talking about.

If you think they can just make new textures and models for every outfit released since 1.23 at the drop of a hat, you also have no idea what you're talking about.
