I find that FFXIV requires a monstrous amount of processing power and graphics capability and I don't really understand why, seeing as TERA is better looking and I can run that smoothly with most settings at max. To get the same frame rate with FFXIV I have to run low settings. The resource management for FFXIV is terrible.
The crystal engine they made for 14 is power hungry. It's poorly optimized because they can't optimize it. That's why they didn't release 14 on PS3 yet because they have to rebuild the engine just to be able too.
That 's what I meant to say :D
Don't really think TERA is better looking. It's more fruity. :3
The graphics in 14 do appear sharper, FFXIV is like HD compared to TERA, but TERA does a much better job visually considering the technical demands.
