Would you like to see a texture update?

I would love it, but it would mean remaking the entire games graphics. I hope for it but I don't expect it any time soon.

I'm 150% for it. A texture update has been long overdue. It's really jarring when I catch the wrong camera angle or zoom in too much and notice how low-res everything is, notable examples being the Exarch and Varis' face (especially his eyes, and his teeth don't match either).
I'm aware of how much of an undertaking it would be, as you'd essentially have to re-release an HD version of the game (kinda like how FFX/X-2 got that remaster a few years back). I'd still be willing to cough up full price for it though.
I know the modding community upscales a lot of gear & whatnot to 4k, but I mean, there's only so much they can do. The demand for it is clearly there.

Very much so, the textures in FF XIV are absolutely horrible and given it was always possible to ship higher res textures as an option for high end PCs, even when people made excuses about "PS3 holding us back", it is about time ... or 5 years too late . But I'm trying to stay positive here believe it or not .

[juicybug]

yes.
the game looks more and more dated every year

it's very funny to me that one of yoshida's concerns was with foliage not looking good, distracting from a serious moment but ANY close up on a character will show armor sets absolutely riddled with pixilation, worse than any plant. i mean hell, crystal exarch looks downright embarrassing during the precursor to the SoF fight. armor textures desperately need an update if the damn plants needed one.

[game_enjoyer]

hell, i'd be willing to pay for a re-release of ffxiv that removes the 1.0 coding. it's apparently enough of an issue that it prevents the developers from implementing some really basic stuff, so it definitely needs to be taken care of

Not if it meant performance suffered
