updating graphics is great but

[CStrife912]

yeah using a lot of older gear next to new things makes it very clear how old something are, made for ps3 limitations.

i wonder how exarchs scene at the end of 5.3 would look under the changes, or if its still extremely pixelated

Well depends how high on the priority list he is because they did say that NPCs and gear wouldn’t all be done in time and will be done in stages through the patch series. So maybe we shall have to wait and see

I honestly would rather keep the old graphics but get modifications to the character design itself.

Make up like eye shadow, should not share a customization slot to facial paint. lip coloration honestly needs more in general, it would also be better to have a "main hand option"

There should scaring options as well, outside of face for example arms, legs back etc. i think it would do alot more for every player in general to change the character design than mess with graphics. Yes glamour is nice and all that however no matter how many sets you have it will always be limited. It would do alot more to change and add to the character design than waste time with graphical changes that are honestly so minor you can't rlly tell much of a difference. Adding things like scaring, giving make up its own tab in character customization and adding in things like body tattoos, piercings etc would honestly be way better than very minor modifications to graphic that are honestly not that diffrent and most people on pc could already have dawntrail graphics with gshader the amount that changed anyways. Things like adding a way to not just have "highlights" but split hair colors aka left purple right black. Modifing the character design itself would honestly be 150x better than minor graphic update

i understand being uncomfortable to change but this is needless and does nothing to forward any feedback. there is no "go back to old graphics" now, gnies out of the bottle.
Graphic update is happening, actual constructive feedback will be more helpful,

needless posts like this will only drown out actual actionable feedback

did i say go back, i didnt i said its nice and all however honestly compared to things that will actrually be useful and benfintioal outside 5 seconds into the game it feeling magical until the open world is made worthless 6 months into it lol. What im saying is it was honestly kind of a stupid choice to focus on graphics when character customization is honestly still kinda limited and bad what im saying is the effort would have been spent better on changing and adding to character customization. more so when lets be honest 99% of the game time is spent in dungeons trails and roulett stuff


would been better done more to character customization, like skull and nose piercings eyebrow kinda stuff


it just seems like the worse choice to do unless they going to stop doing rouletts and duty finder stuff and make things complete open world, its vastly a waste compared the effort being spent on character customization. When honestly most the time is spent qing in limsa or where ever just changing the dungeon graphic would been fine for how the design is.

If the game, like so many wants it to, to stay alive up and running for many more years to come it will have to keep up with the time.

How many MMOs. 14 years old have you picked up recently, and if not, why so?
What was it that didn't peek your interest in it to begin with?
For many it's the poor graphics after watching videos/images and just by judging from those felt that it's not worth it.

Because "why do x when we should do y, y is better"

also, 90% of npcs use the same feature set players do, and many cutscenes are mid to close up, esp on armor , clothing, and faces.

Most of the casual audiance and marketing are put in the story, its a FF game after all.

so adjusting the models to higher fidelity was a very important consideration.

new and more options are good, of course, but many asstes are from 2002 imported from ff11

change was desperatly needed

Game definitely needs a graphic overhaul.It looks very dated at this point. People just love to complain. I'm happy to see it. Especially for the landscapes..
