I agree that after seeing the Treehouse demo, the game hasn't been downgraded. With that being said, what little we saw from X initially made it seem as a graphical powerhouse that could compete with PS4/X1, but now I looks like it has slightly better graphics than something on PS3/360. And that's only counting relative things (an open world JRPG), because something like TLOU or Uncharted 3 wipes the floor with this.

Compare its textures, particle effects, etc. to Infamous and it looks like poop. Then again, we won't get a really good game to compare it to until we get an open world jrpg for PS4 (maybe FFXV if it's open world?), but just looking at the textures, animation, etc, I am pretty disappointed.

Good for Wii U gamers though, they (if most migrated from Wii) still get a relative upgrade when compared to gaming on the Wii. Same goes for PS4 gamers when taking into account high-end PC players have had similar (if not better) graphical experiences for the past 3 or 4 years. It's all relative, I guess.


You guys are all looking at the wrong character models. Did any of you see how good that nopon looked?

I watched maybe 20 minutes of the demo footage and don't remember the individual character models, but of what I saw I simply was not impressed. The draw distance and scenery was great (why I don't think the graphics were downgraded, because they look like the old X footage), but the character models were just uninspired. Even the monsters were decent (not bad but not great). Then again, I think I am used to FF mobs, and even though Square has stumbled this past generation, they never fail to give good looking character models for both playable characters and monsters.

Guess monolith sticks to its strengths (environment), but for it to look like something on PS4, I'd expect it to up its character model game.

Yeah, they focused on environment. The Nopon was in the trailer at the end.
