My exact complaint light effects alone doesnt make something good and in some cases it takes away from the attack. Simian thrashing a giant mob causes a blurb of light to flash on your screen and u cant see shit happening the entire time. same goes w/ chaos thrust on larger mobs all u see are flashing lights. Too busy getting barraged w/ laser lights to actually enjoy the weaponskill animations to begin w.

And saying that ff11 has had years to build upon this isnt a good excuse because its 2011 not 2001 and technology and growth alone shoulda never had resulted in us gettin the same generic animations for every single attk like when this game was released.
