In the eighty first Letter from the Producer Live broadcast, Final Fantasy XIV producer and director Naoki Yoshida and global community producer Toshio Murouchi went through an exhaustive list of job updates coming in the Dawntrail expansion, as well as updates to the benchmark, fantasia system, and other news.
Check out our summary below for the latest:
Benchmark Graphics Update & Fantasia Update
The team had an update regarding feedback on how characters appear in the recently-released Dawntrail benchmark, particularly how its lighting settings was creating an erroneous impression of how characters would appear in the full game. The benchmark will be updated before launch (they're shooting for May 30-31 but could not confirm) which will fix these issues.They are also planning to adjust a lot of features based on player feeback - one of which is the miqo'te Keeper of the Moon canines appearing shorter. Yoshida asked for further comments on their plans going forward. Lalafell teeth have also been adjusted. Some characters have had to have their face mapping adjusted based on lines that would appear on the face in certain conditions.
In Patch 7.0, a NPC will be added to Ul'dah that introduces you to the Phial of Fantasia appearance change
