Realm Reborn = downgrade?

[Arcell]

and this is only a Pre-Alpha build mind you, this can get a whole a lot better, Just we have to do our part to tell them that this is extremely important. Animations are important but they can wait till ARR is out. Gameplay and Content is #1 Priority.

Well I mean they outright said that those lengthy start/stop animations aren't coming back but yes, the quality of the current stop animations can increase as time goes on. It really doesn't look bad to me at all but I guess I just "don't get it".

Well, if the demand is high enough they may fix that before ARR. Just like anything else that gets high demand Yoshi-P trys his best to get it in before x deadline. It doesn't look bad to me either, the animations look cool to me too, Yes it is a downgrade but we knew that was going to happen for a long time now.

Three things are their Top Priority:

- Gameplay ( Animation lock, Combos etc)
- Content ( FFXIV 1.0 seriously lacked of)
- Server engine ( The whole thing needed to be redone in order to achieve a smooth and fluent servers)

And good optimized graphism Starlord .
And these animation reality is not in that part of course

Honestly now, want me to keep or remove your post from the OP?

That sounds like a threat... " If you don't do what I say then Your words will be on my OP for All to see MUAHAHAHA" -.-

It's funny how people shit themselves out of blind fury when you ask them to use x MMO's feature, but will gladly praise SE for reducing animation quality lol. "White Knight" gets thrown around a lot, praising them for reducing animation quality is the equivalent of white knighting.

ANYone here say that SE is doing great thing with reducing animation quality .
They say that SE is doing great with having a better gameplay even if the animations suffers a little .

I agree with this also, no one is giving SE props for reducing animation, what they're saying is that they're will to take a sacrifice for the bigger picture.

"But neorei, that how we got 1.0 in the first place."

I know I'm not saying 1.0 didn't need to be changed. But if I'm going to be playing a weightless puppet, there are much less expensive games I can play. You assume all of the changes in 2.0 are going to be good.

Sliding across the ground and having attacks be nothing more than lights saying "I hit" as I move around is not a good change to me.

because attacks are more than just hitting the ennemy ?

Woah woah, back up. Have you played FFXIV?

Take the new content, the H-1 machine.

when you leash that thing, what does it do? It'll run up to it's territory boundary. Stop. Hunch over and then sliiiiiide back into its territory in that same hunched over state.

Is that quality animation to you? When you have a lot of little animations for the sake of it, your computer will end up dropping them when there's a lot going on on your screen anyway! Talk about immersion ruination.

They're streamlining the animations so that we can consistently enjoy them. This raises the quality of the animation.
