I can't wait to see the Femroes.

My neck is fine! *looks angry*

My dear, you always look fine!

Sorry but this so called update is a sick joke if that on screens is all what they have to offer. All i see is that they added a Darker Background an put some dirt on all of the character Faces. Yea the hair looks a bit darker, but thats thanks to the background and overall darker lightning of the images on the right side. The biggest joke is the miquote face, there is like no change at all if you would put both pictures on the same brightness level.

Please keep in mind that they specifically mentioned these changes are after a single month of testing. They were very clear that they'll continue to work on both upgrading options and optimizing things. Single screen shots of a few faces still shows significant improvement, with more updates to come as we get closer to 7.0.

It's called Nvidia Freestyle if you want to look into it more.

Is this something native to Nvidia cards and not a traditional 3rd party mod? I haven't messed with the settings on my Nvidia card yet.

Yes exactly, it's not nearly as extensive as something like Gshade but if you generally like how the game looks but want smaller tweaks then Freestyle (and I'm sure there's an AMD equivalent too) is the way to go, significantly more lightweight too if performance is an issue.

Nice. Long overdue, so I'm glad to finally see it happen.

Meme idea once they start NPC upgrades, MSQ cutscenes from ARR that have a mix of NQ and HQ NPCs

The best part of questing in WoW post-Wod was seeing high poly npcs talking to models with 2 polygons.

I can't wait for this to happen in 14, god bless.

The fact YoshiP anticipated the reddish light comments wrt to the Titania comparison, we're so spoiled y'all, hope the Devs take care of themselves and don't overwork themselves, I do worry about them from time to time.

It seems like our prayers have been answered! While I doubt this will include the coveted butt slider, this may mean we will see a revisit to character customization in 7.0


What I really want to see is a separation of face locked aesthetics: let miqo'te choose their face markings, let Viera have their tattoos regardless of head choice etc etc

Oh and finally decouple au ra horns from heads.

I'm waiting so hard for them to mention updating and adding to the character creator. something, anything T_T
