Doesn't FFIV 2.0 have better graphics and more characters on screen ? 

I mean how long has it been since then ? Also after Agnis philosophy, we can't underestimate Luminous engine, and FF main series graphics have always been god tier.

Technically 1.0 had better graphics, but it was hilariously inefficient (1k polygon flower pots woo!). With 2.0 they reworked the game to not run like ass, but maintained most of the quality and backed it up with a much more consistent art direction. Overall i'd say it's the better looking game, and should look even better once the DX11 client comes out (probably with 3.0). Can finally use an AA method that isn't FXAA.

You're right about characters though, 2.0 allows many more on-screen at once. It runs surprisingly well too, even when you have a crap ton of people fighting an S rank:



The biggest battle I've ever seen was yesterday. An S rank spawned in Mor Dhona (the busiest non-home city area in the game). We crashed the server for about 15 minutes :D
