Reduce mobs size to original size

[Innes]

Topic Edit: REDUCE mobs to orginal size, MINUS the "difficult to target mobs" such as vermin kin .

orginal post"excuse me if this is the wrong place to post this, or if another thread has exists with the same topic.

simply, to maintain immersion and a sense realism, the mobs' original size pre-patch was excellent and quite proportional to the 5 races of Eorzea and the environment. for example, the marmots were definitely small, about the size and porportion to a real life squirrel. the opo-opo's seemed similar to monkeys in porportion to ourselves, humans. i understand the world is fantasy, though, the original size was really good, and to reiterrate, quite proportional to the races and world/environment.
i hope in the near future, the orginal size of the mobs is re-implemented."

So I take it you were never immersed in the previous 13 games?

The point of the monster enlarging was to make them easier to target, and to help you in forgetting that you are a rank 30/40+ in a game fighting tiny squirrels and bunnies. Both are necessary changes.

I think it made things disproportionate in some cases. Things like smaller rodents and stuff I feel should be dropped back down... I mean a lalafell sized rat is sorta overkill. Other mobs I am not annoyed with.

I seen nothing wrong with the old way honestly, but then again I do not play with a mouse so I figured that was an issue for alot of ppl with smaller mobs.

Fighting a LV 45 tiny squirrel in full plate armour
and losing to it
was more ridiculous
than fighting an oversized squirrel.

I like the new sizes much better, it's now much easier to find that squirrels left side if you would need to stab it. One exception though, the toads for the leves in Treespeak..they don't fit over the bridges and this looks quite goofy.

I like the new mob sizes especially after the effects now have been cleaned to match.

I'm just going to say no. My main concern with this game was how small all mobs were, in XI most of the mobs were big and you could tell what detail went into them and it immersed me.

I like the new mob sizes as well, the only one that seems awkward are the gnats. It seems like I have to get closer to them than other mobs to fight them, and their model just fills the screen. Maybe part of it is that they're flying, other than that nothing wrong with the model size increase.

@ Betelgeugah right. because Final Fantasy 1-6 used sprites. FF7 and FF9 used exaggerated figures. Realistic porportion is implemented in FFXIV. Realistic. Its ok if you do not understand. Thanks for your post.
