Realm Reborn = downgrade?

[Tonkra]

I wonder why there was no feedback on this durring the live letter - it's an obvious issue for a lot of people. And out of the 200 plus developers working on the game I'm sure they can't all agree the animation looks good in its current state.

i cant understand these opinions...

these animations:

PLD WS (Same animation like now)

Same Movement animations..

Same emote animations

are almost exactly(!) the same animations which we have now. what gives you an other impression? is it the new graphics engine which uses a different color set? what is it to make you think the animations are so totally different?

show it. except the movement animations are a little unfinished yet for a pre-alpha version. and thats obvious. but no need for whining around like cry babies.. *sigh* so annoying really..


better SE never had shown anything till beta ...

I remember I made a post a while ago complaining about what they did with the crafting animations after they shortened them/sped them up. People kept telling me "relax, it'll look a lot better in 2.0 when they fix them". HAH.

I mean... GW2 does it... It might be not as good as XIV when it comes to movement animation, and sometimes it might look like they float, but they did implemented inertia and leaning without sacrificing anything.

And we're talking about a game that emphasizes gameplay aspects such as dodging enemy attacks in real time here.

Played GW2 a bit yesterday, the animations are really well done. They don't necessarily have to keep motion captured animations, but they have to keep it at the level comparable to 1.0, kinda like GW2

Look at the flashy weapon skills from this game. You ever even notice these? You've noticed the strafe animation surely you've noticed the detail of each weapon skill? Right?

So, great skill animations are an excuse to have horrendous or missing moving animations? ....Right...

nothing better to complain about, so now it is about animations in an alpha build? nice...........

Uhuh, especially after the reps confirmed the degradation is intended, oh and, let me remind you of 1.0 alpha.. then beta... then open beta.. and finally release. People have been telling us to STFU and wait till release.

But SUR-effing-PRISE! Nearly everything we "complained" about didn't get fixed and people were pissed about having to pay for a broken game. You want the repetition of it with 2.0? You can have it.

But should this happen, SE will have to shut down FFXIV for sure.

Complaining about back pedaling and movement animations in FFXIV but thinking the movement animations in
GW 2

are "well done"? ;XD


its about the MMorpg standard, which FFXIV has not in the current version. there is need for more fluent gameplay which means no animation lock etc. .. and therefore a dragoon mustnt stand in a 3-4 second animation queue

wait for beta and then tell us how it feels. but not regarding early footage which was released on youtube. i think yoshida is doing it right. you just got blind all over the years, because you got used to the current system.

it turns into a slightly different playstyle, thats what we wanted.. and thats what we need to attract non-ff11 veterans. get over it.

Compared to the ones in the live letter, yes.

YES! I mean.. you didnt need jump at XI and you didn't need jump earlier at XIV so... you don't need it at future.. o.o
