Both games are definitely worth playing, so make your own decision,
instead of listening to all these bald people on the screen.

i love both games and yea they seperate via the art style but i do like both. Also you need to consider the times at which both these games where released.
I wish you had mention how much better gear looks in FF, most gear in wow look attached to the characters skins, it's also awful when it comes to dresses and skirts, they all look very weird. Only plate armor looks good in wow in my opinion.
No. You are too passionate about FFXIV. Mt. Gulg holds a special place in your heart, so to you it's beautiful beyond the graphics, but what Asmon was criticizing was the graphics, not the beauty of your experience. Asmon is right; WoW is graphically more advanced than FFXIV. Anti-Aliasing. Texturing. Number of environmental objects. More of the game world is loaded in, and is seamlessly explorable. The movement of animations such as Heroic Leap, Warlock Portal, Transcendence, Demon Hunter double jump/glide, Dracthyr flying, Monk Roll, Flying Dragon Kick, Mage Blink (to name of few). The visual clarity, and the fluidity of movement across the screen is greater in WoW.
That being said, don't try to write me off as a WoW andy. I quit WoW in Shadowlands, and have no intention of going back. FFXIV is my home. Karok Sunfury – Siren
MMO's cant be a graphic heavy games. This games need to run on a potato PC, so that more people can play it
Anyone that says FFXIV or WoWs graphics are even remotely good are on straight up Copium. XIV wont even be good with the 7.0 update
You ´re right.
The Animations in WoW are looking awful.
Older WoW are looking way better.
Even the how the spells are looking now is what I know don´t understand why they changed that.
Graphics aside, music wise, WoW will never even hold a candle to the masterpieces Soken has put out.
Personally, I'm not a fan of the puke crayola coloring WoW has. Asmon is 100% biased towards the game he spent so long playing to say "The graphics are good."
His on that giga copium tank.
Just compare the best weapons WoW has VS what FFXIV to offer. (Relics, Ultimate Weapons, even the Glamour weapons from the marketboard.)
People still play WoW is the same as people still playing Runescape.
FFXIV will further ascend as the world's biggest and best MMO after 7.0 drops with further graphic enhancements across the board.
I'm ff andy and i can confidently say that WoW has a cooler and more professional visual style. WoW really feels like fantasy, unlike ff where that feeling can often be lost. The visual style in ff is very heterogeneous, along with medieval armor in the game you can see a modern casual style, which can take you out of immersion, the same goes for the mounts. Each piece of art separately is well made in ff, but when they are put together, you get a mishmash. The art design of Allagan's architecture and technology in general is pretty questionable. And there really is a problem with how lifelike the environment looks in ff. Animations are really very few, many of them look rather unnatural, mostly it concerns fauna. The 180 degree turns of the characters in the cutscenes look bad. All of this needs to be fixed, of course. HOWEVER, this does not mean that the graphics and visual style in general is better in WoW. Even though WoW has a strong visual style, it doesn't have the highly detailed sets of armor, clothing, and mounts that will be a deciding factor for many people. And the heterogeneity of the visual style when it comes to mounts and clothing sets, for someone on the contrary will be diversity, it gives much more freedom of expression. And the animations don't matter that much to me personally. In the end it all comes down to individual preferences. The visual style of ff is rather bland, but offers many ways to express yourself, while WoW is very harmonious in its visual style, but doesn't give as much variety. Prioritize properly, and just enjoy what you like.
I take it like this. WoW is like a 20 yr old game and FFXIV is like 10. Both of them looked good back in the day but WoW has a more Disney-esque cartoony aesthetic which will continually look good for the most part but still needs ironing out. FFXIV on the other hand is more of a realistic take on the anime genre, but we also know it was a rush job to resurrect. Everyone knows how each game looks and both playerbases know how well each holds up but FF is taking steps to address these issues.
Graphics look fine to me. Combat gameplay is the crappiest thing in the game. With some changes it can be pretty good though. Also the game has tons and tons of content. So content is not a problem too.
I don't think its even a contest. Even if FF14 graphics are quite dated it still looks miles better than WoW graphics 😂I guess it does come down to what art style you prefer but putting them side by side ultra settings on FF14 leaves WoW in the dust at least imo.
Everything in wow is 2d, played alot of both games ff14 better
I mean it's not like ff14s graphics are great, but WoW's graphics are definitely goofy as hell looking.
WoW makes you bald and fat! Yoshi P atleast encourages us all to breath life and touch grass!
I absolutely love the cat girl VS asmond thumbnail LOL. I clicked immediately. >^ _ ^<
I'm a person that enjoys both games pretty much played both from base games an future expansions 😊
WoW is just to cartooning now days, old WoW had a dark look and feel that works way better then todays WoW.
FFXIV has the same feel from ARR – Endwalker.
I also feel that the delayed inputs for ff14 also help players with lower internet connection able to participate in harder content with out bringing the party down. Also I think this latency is what allows for slide casting as well. If I am wrong plz correct me.
Hopefully we can go back and call him the crystal exarch rather than the pixel exarch. Each game will have taken 11 years for their graphical update and asmon KNEW ffxiv is due one, so him not even addressing it in his rant was dishonest
The biggest problem with XIV visuals imo is anti aliasing, lighting and shadows come after that.
So I don't get it. Is Asmongold fully back on the FF14 hater train?
I can't agree more with the fact that WoW is lacking in it's updated graphics to me. It's too animated.
Disney-esque is definitely how I would explain it. Like the one episode of Family Guy where Stewie and Brian get transported to a Disney drawn world for a few minutes. It looked good, but didn't feel like Family Guy. For WoW now, you can tell they had to have picked up devs from Wildstar when it died because that's the vibe I get now. Again, the art worked for Wildstar very well, but I dislike it for WoW.
It's not about "graphics," it's about "aesthetic." This is why TF2 or LoZ: Windwaker are timeless. WoW's aesthetic is way better than FFXIV right now – everything blends much better visually and looks cleaner. FFXIV is way too boxy and pixellated.
(I play FFXIV and abandoned WoW. But WoW looks way better 99% of the time.)
WoW looks like cartoony polygonal hot garbage
Man 1st rule of arguments, dont apologize just explain. FF11 has/had one of the worst combat systems mmo's have ever conceived, dont walk back a simple objective statement just because someone with nostalgia artificial eyes got upset. It had good points, but they werent what you were talking about in your last video and you have zero reason to apologize for it
WoW= Better graphics to me
FFXIV= Better aesthetics to me
You summed it up perfectly, WoW looks like a Disney game and can be overbearing…which is my only issue. FFXIV can just look down right ugly though
Neither has good graphics, but (contrary to how people meme) they are both better than most games we get these days.
andy or not, graphics matter little when gameplay is at the front of the presentation. that being said, if you think wow looks better than xiv, i won’t judge, but i strongly disagree.
I have no issue with Zack, I really like him actually. But regardless of what opinion either side has on art styles etc, only providing context and clarification to a statement/opinion he made after someone has commented on it and then calling them 'bad takes' when he never provided the full context of what he meant the first time is pepega. He said graphics – not animation movement, server limitations, engine limitiatons, or any other specific things – graphics. That can be interpreted many ways, listening to his response was kinda hard because he was clarifiying what he meant and then trying to argue your take was wrong when he never said all that the first time.
For me, what it comes down to is that WoW has some really nice world design, and I like how vibrant everything is, but the character models are straight up ugly (imo). FF has.. okay looking environments that occasionally look really good and the character models are way better. So, I prefer the look of FF. I do wish the world was more open like WoW though, but that's not something that can be changed unless they made a whole new game.
