That&apos;s a sign your favourite game is still going to get some love. &#8220;When players would see the graphics updates, they would realise that Final Fantasy 14 will still push on \u2026 I think it would give players a sense of ease, so they would not need to worry about that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The second reason he gives is a bit more material\u2014Yoshida worries that players (especially younger ones) will draw comparisons between FF14 and other, newer kids on the block, and &#8220;think of it as an old game \u2026 But the important thing with MMOs is that we need to constantly get new players in, otherwise the overall scale of our game would shrink \u2026 by implementing the graphics updates, we can actually improve the appeal for 14 to those types of players.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That&apos;s fair enough, MMOs are <em>expensive <\/em>and constantly updated, and you&apos;ve gotta keep the lights on somehow. But it&apos;s not just the players Yoshida&apos;s looking out for\u2014it&apos;s the devs, too.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A Realm Reborn was released back in 2013 and when we look at the graphics pipeline, it\u2019s now two generations old. The artists who are working on Final Fantasy 14, I wanted to give them a better environment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While you can do plenty with an older engine and a handful of polygons, Final Fantasy 14&apos;s 10-year-old tech likely still interferes with its artists&apos; visions. I was staggered by some of the earliest previews of the 7.0 graphics overhaul, mostly by how <em>different<\/em> the lighting was in familiar areas.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:2560px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"btfJZbSP5WKkYBnMzMWMBb\" name=\"metal.jpg\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/while-players-are-the-main-motive-final-fantasy-14-dawntrails-visual-makeover-is-also-meant-to-help-devs-advance-their-careers-says-director-yoshi-p.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"1\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1440\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"expandable\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\" inline-layout\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Square Enix)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&#8220;So, there\u2019s a benefit for both in the sense that players can benefit from better quality and graphics, but our artists and engineers in the team can benefit by using more advanced technology and can advance their careers.&#8221; While Yoshida says the graphics overhaul is &#8220;quite a difficult endeavour \u2026 I think it&apos;s because of those benefits [that] we really want to give it our best and see it through.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/mmo\/while-players-are-the-main-motive-final-fantasy-14-dawntrails-visual-makeover-is-also-meant-help-devs-advance-their-careers-says-director-yoshi-p\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Final Fantasy 14&apos;s due a new coat of paint, and if you&apos;ve been following the ramp-up to Dawntrail, you know it&apos;s getting one.
