Grass

[Shougun]

Grass aesthetics within a video game really interests me -- I like flora in the game called Real Life and as a result I enjoy experiencing flora in other worlds, too. Honestly, I experience a moment of repulsion when these elements are not, at least somewhat, paid attention to. Having said that, I will not be creating a thread about it.

Of course, on that same thimble, I will not be chastising another human being for creating a thread about it. It seems equally silly to me.

I just came here to say that YAY I LOVE GRASS AND I HOPE THE GRASS LOOKS GREAT - but also - I REALLY LIKE THE GRASS/FLORA QUALITY AS IT IS NOW AND WILL BE FINE IF THEY DO NOT CHANGE IT.

Furthermore, I would really like to thank the many individuals who have linked examples of great quality grass. It has pleased the treehugger inside me. I might begin stalking Black Desert Online. But even so, I do not necessarily agree that one should improve the flora/grass of THIS game based on the level of detail of another game (similarly, I do not believe we should shove people over TO A DIFFERENT GAME because we do not like their opinions on THIS one).

I'm not really providing anything to this thread - sorry about that! I just wanted to muse on grass and tell the world: it's okay to appreciate/desire grass quality in a video game. It's also okay to not care about the grass/think there are more important things to consider. Let's all live in a perfect blossom of grassy harmony, okay-dokay? La la la la la la~

Okay I am done now.

Awesome providing nothing post - grassy harmony sounds nice ^_^

(Normally I'd snip quotes longer then a few lines but, here I didnt )

Neither will the music, but...it's quite nice to have there

Exactly, we could be playing with WoW graphics - very few want that though. We could be playing on low settings by force, very few want that though. While not the definition of the gameplay the graphics do make up an important segment of the game. So subjective or not the quality can be discussed and at the time being (because ARR beta could have had included some grass options and we just dont know about it) ARR grass isnt as good as quality as the rest of the environment there is an inconsistency between models and the plant models (most of the game is very smooth and crisp, except plant models) - not everyone's computer can make that consistent but I promise with ARR's enhanced efficient engine over 1.0's many more peoples computer can be doing that now.

This isnt a whole new song this is just allowing the players to increase the bitrate of a song they like (128kbs isnt going to cut it for everyone).

Which if for some reason the music was released at a low bitrate I'd be making a thread about that too - Soken deserves more :P.
