Well let's take a look at some of the new creatures to kill and environments to come to us this September 30th. Having had actual hands-on with the beta of the game, I can assure you that what you see below is what the in-game will look like; if you have a system that can handle it.
Some of the creatures look a bit new, but I will say I am a fan that they went back to the original look of the Bombs. I was not a fan of what they did to them in Final Fantasy XIII and it looks like the artists of Final Fantasy XIV were not either. Also, it looks like there will be a nice grind of animations for all the creation functions of the game. Like Blacksmithing and Fishing. At least from the below shots.
See you all in whatever bar that is they are showing below.
