New Alpha Video

[Munba]

That atmosphere with that music, absolutely perfect. A new world full of this will be.. wonderful.

So looking forward to the launch of ARR! Music is so nice too .

Oh and please folks...

Oh and please folks...

I really loved the video and the new looks of Gridania, and I also think that it will get even better later.

Just, I don't understand why people must say "troll" every time someone points out something he does not like.

I am Italian and this attitude reminds me of our well known ex-prime minister calling "communist" everyone not agreeing with him lol

...in case you don't know who I'm talking about, here he is:

If you noticed... I never quoted anyone while posting my "Don't feed the Troll" pic. It was simply a forewarning for folks because I'm ~98.9% positive that the "Trolls" will chime in to this thread.

So once again i'll say... please folks... DON'T FEED THE TROLLS.

I must have looked away for a second, because I just now noticed the zone indicator! It's just like Final Fantasy XII! I'm a HUGE fan of the aesthetics of A Realm Reborn! Also, I'm happy to see the cities broken into smaller sections!

inb4 "omg small zones wah"

Haters gonna hate.

YES! FFXII-style zone markers .. <3 <3 <3

[I hated not knowing exactly where the zone was in FFXI.]

The music is nice (obviously inspired by the LotR shire music)

One thing that struck me is the perception of freedom of movement in ARR (esp compared to 1.0). Originally, I was against the jumping mechanic, but I've come around to it within the larger context of ARR.

New Grid looks absolutely fantastic!, I can't wait to see the other cities!!




EDIT: ACTUAL WATER REFRACTIONS! [@1:27]

Also though the music is nice, I think they could do a bit better with it and please se don't leave those big blue dots in a line to show us zone lines

Personally i like them, reminds me oh so much of:

Perhaps they could be thinned out, smaller even. But i wouldn't mind if they stayed how they are.

Those are straight out of FFXII. And they are very useful (esp if running from mobs)

Also, you'll notice (@2:24) you don't even see them until you get within 5 yalms of the zone.

Why not? The FF XII zone makers are nice.
Or do you want them in circles? ^^
