Original Artworks where did they went ?

[Tonkra]

I just took a look on original artworks and where they went ingame..
and i just thought "oh well.. havent you seen that in 2.0. screenshots some weeks before?"

and i thought i could be just right..



2010 artwork of Ul'dah (the big trees in the background)

2.0. Screenshot


artwork Gridania 2010

screenshot 2.0. (my favourite 2.0. screenshot, gridania looks just soo much better now)


artwork 2010

well aurum vale, actual version (hopefully the new graphics engine can do better, with more dynamic lightning, steam etc.)



seems that they also created some regions from original artworks which didnt really made it into the game?


there are also some completely missing in the release version.. im wondering where these went:





there is one really bad version of this bridge actually in the current version:



hopefully the graphics designer of 2.0. can transform the actual artworks of 2.0. much better into the game, than they did in the release version of FFXIV.

Here's from what I've known and seen, I might not be right but anyways.

-The Camp-site in cave looks just like the "Little Ala-mhigo" area.
-The Little Lantern thing is in the Black Shroud and people have called it the "Sylph House" since it looks like a house and is small.
-The Rocky lands could be Thanalan Area, or Mount O'Ghomorro since It seems to go even higher.

Nice artworks, do you have more? Coz I would like to see them! (Never saw any of the Old / Original Concept Art except ones you posted (and the ones SE posted)

Aren't the tents just an al'mahigo cave base ?

You just need to look harder

All those "Missing" things are in the game if you look.

i think it does look much more like the screenshot of version 2.0.

Yes, those Lanter / Sylph houses are in the Black Shroud, around north of Nine Ivies, might be more.
