Look from 1h6m30s to forward (the link should open already at that time btw)

Just wondering if it'll be fixed for the release, cause in alpha videos and old live letters it was present, but ppl said: oh it's just alpha, it will be fixed for the beta.

Now we've seen beta footage from the live letter and the "sliding" it's still very.. VERY persistent...

It's really a shame IMHO for a "triple A" MMO like FFXIV, expecially considering that one of Yoshi's goal is the best graphics among all the mmos...

I never seen so much sliding on the ground even in the worst of F2Ps ...
Even FFXI or the old XIV didn't have this issue...

What do you think guys?

Doesn't look to be lag and looks more like how the engine is handling animations currently for other clients. You stop on your screen but on theirs it still show you running in place/sliding on the ground.

Exactly , and it's really a shame because they did a wonderful job on any other aspect of the engine...

I care because the game has high quality standard for graphics, but that sliding on the floor is terrible :/

Most people aren't going to notice. That being said, it's almost certain to be improved when they get around to it. probably only spescific cases when it happens.

i find this outlook entirely unrealistic
