Ps3 Version looks like a 1995 Computer game?Follow

That backside 180 heelflip off the 8 stair gap though? I got those IRL

So FFXII was released in 2001?

Nope, 2006

And can someone post a SS when the game comes back up? Here's a FFXII for comparison: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/51/Final_Fantasy_XII_JAP_FF12.jpg

And honestly, from what I recall, FFXIV is still better.

If you were expecting bleeding edge graphics, realize that, in a single player game, the company can reasonably expect X number of characters onscreen at any time, where as an MMO has a larger variance, and all that horrid 1.0 "visual lag"? Yea, caused by being too high on the graphics.

A game on a console from 2006 doesn't look as good as it's 2013 powerhouse computer counterpart? I'm beyond shocked.

I play on the PS3, ordinarily it looks fine. When. The scene is noticeably loaded in some fashion or another the animations do tend to appear to skip as I'm guessing the client is passing every other frame to keep the overall framer ate reasonable. This is expected as a console limitation. The max resolution the game will pull is 720p on the PS3. All things considered it isn't terrible and is the price I pay for wanting to lay on the couch and play, and I accept that. The PS4 client will of course be better and handle frames with ease, but for now it is good.

yes. looks horrible. the UI, the HUD. all of it.

My original complaint said Looks & Feels like a 1995 computer game. Just to stop the 1995 and this and that and trollness of this thread. I think it feels like an old game yes with the current HUD. the layout. The ps3 controller scheme. it doesn't feel very modern at all. that's my opinion. for a game that is supposed to take a step back from FFXI and be "quick and fun" or whatever, they made selecting everything in the character interface and menus very cumbersome did they not? a big grey block with a bunch of letters on it? a character viewing screen , and inventory. I know this is a matter of preference. The reason for this title is people will discuss what I figured needed to be discussed. Obviously it is an exaggeration on graphics alone. yes, it's been said over and over. "it is launch" and such. but I still would have expected something a little bit cleaner. I'm coming from the perspective of FFXI mind you. playability wise, I feel FFXI is a much more accessible game rather. I started in gridania and I've seen some posts where people say the wooded areas look worse on ps3, than say the desert area, I've considered maybe making an Ul'Dah character for that reason to test that out. I think I am speaking about the HUD quite a bit here. the idea of holding down the triggers every second when you fight, yes, the weird skipped frame animations. the thin lines representing your hp, the whole entire screen covered in HUD. I know perhaps (and I have not tried to take them down) but perhaps you can take some of these windows down. I am about to log in again. I'm giving it probably a good two months. remember I'm coming from FFXI here. It'd be the last MMO I'd want to fail. I'd like to give a shoutout to Killua125 for being cool and having open eyes, and to FilthMcNasty for being the most constructive poster so far. I think if we want to like.. Lift the FF brand up we should have high expecations and not settle. Even if it is a ps3 release right?

accidental double post.

ah I will have to tweak and test man. the default settings are just bunk is all I can say if this aspect is fixable to a good degree.
