They should scrap the PS3 version.

most probably still shuttering, just that it's might be less shuttering or the opposite... waiting for Phase 3

If you mean stuttering, i wouldn't worry about that too much, as the framerate of the PC version doesn't look top notch as well, and youtube is well known to do bad things to framerate.

What I mostly mean is the overall compression, the video looks very much plagued with artifact, lowering the overall quality by a lot.

I get it ! That's why Skyrim looks awful on PC...oh wait, it doesn't...

Actually Skyrim is exactly one of the examples of a VERY bad port from console with almost no optimization whatsoever. Things have been addressed a bit with the high resolution texures addon (that is STILL very badly optimized on the other end of the spectrum and requires at least two different mods to become workable), but at launch it looked terrible for a PC game, with muddy textures and a terrible, horrible console-friendly UI. Even with the high resolution patch some things are simply inacceptable for a PC game, for instance the completely static waterfalls when seen at a distance, making them look like badly textured ice.

Skyrim on PC starts looking really good when modded, no thanks to Bethesda.

But again, this doesn't apply to FFXIV, because FFXIV's lead development platform is the PC, while Skyrim's was the Xbox 360.
