New Graphical Tech You'd Like to See with Shadowbringers

[Noshpan]

It would be nice to not have my FemRoe's thighs not clip through skirts. And a variety of facial hair options.

[RezWolf]

more vibrant/smoother textures in general, a lot of colors (especially hair colors) are very "washed-out" looking.

[TheVigilant]

Character movements feeling more realistic during in-game dialogue cutscenes.

[Dzian]

Fix the clipping issues.

When bows / staves go through hats. Or other head gear

when long hair goes through hoods, collars shields. Quivers etc.

When some high boots go through trousers when legs bend.

Or with some of the more recent weapons that continuously get bigger and bigger the amount of times players impale them selves or chop there own limbs off when various animations play.

Dx12 support, better graphical optimization, higher resolution textures, (optional) Geomapping as seen in FFxv and maybe NVIDIA Turf Effects.

[Sandpark]

This isn't a tech improvement. This is just wastingthrowing more money at voice actors.

HD textures, new anti-aliasing... or just something to lessen the horrible effect from repeated textures on big walls (in Yanxia for example)

If they have any resource for tech improvements, I'd prefer them to focus on non-graphical/server-side : open more functionalities when in instance (/tell, fc menu, friend list, etc.) since we're spending more and more time in instance (Eureka, even the new gold saucer game is an instance...), and I guess the world-visit feature will have the same problems.

Your are right but technically text cutscenes are old tech aka beginning of time video games. This game need high tech.

[arcmourn]

They really need to start future proofing FFxiv for the next 5 years. Even if that means dropping another moon...

[Derio]

Agreed. They need to get ffxiv set for the next 5 years even if they only planned a 10 year lifespan.

[ChaoticCrimson]

I concur that clipping seriously needs to be addressed in virtually every aspect, from gear to mounts. That said, I'm still fine with being able to take advantage of glitching for housing decoration... But that's a somewhat different beast.

[Fawkes]

Better textures and more polygons for character models.
