[Dev] Overtaxation of PC Hardware

[Ilean]

The PS3's RSX GPU is just a modified Geforce 7800, which is a DX9 GPU.

Still, DirectX is a MS API, while the GPU capabilities might be the same that's where the similarities stop.

Point being, they could have gone DX10/11 and still limit themselves to DX9 level features.

PC AAA games will support more than 1 branch of DX, I want to believe that the only reason for FF14 being DX9 is its troubled development, and that it is in SE plans to bring the engine up once things are more stable...
