FFXIV in 8k – Is it even Possible? And does it make Sense?

by



I just found out, YouTube Does support 6k Resolution as well,
so I am absolutely excited for 6k Relic Weapon Showcase videos.
Coming as soon as the final Endwalker Stage is being released

  2. Actually the system requirements will be changing in 7.0 due to graphical changes they will be doing. Lol I believe it will be rtx 2070 as recommended. But yea lol it looks good I play @6k normally xd myself it's a huge deal to me

  3. Thanks for sharing your tests, although i personally can't really see too much of a difference here. The characters look less blocky with higher resolutions, but you can still tell it's an old game. This tests would be really interesting after they dropped the graphics update (next year?), because then you have the texture optimization and paired with high resolution it could really look cool. Your video might really help people get a little bit more optimization out of this game (even if you definitely can't make it look good for 2023 standards), so thank you for sharing 🙂

  4. I don't think it's a bad thing to have an 8k and 6k option when playing. Ima have to politely disagree on saying that there aren't any streaming shows or apps that don't play in 8k or 6k already.

    Will it put some serious strain on you PC? Probably, yes, but if your playing on console and on TV or computer it shouldn't really be much of an issue. Cause I think GOWR, Elden Ring, SF6, and some of the newer games that are coming out in UE5 and stuff it SHOULDNT and probably isn't a problem.

    Plus there's already TV's and PC monitor's that already run in 6k and 8k. I see them all the time.

  5. My PC can't even play 8k video so this doesn't apply to me. That said, there is no sweating not having 8k because games are not yet made for 8k as a standard. Just like old TV shows and movies aren't filmed for for HD.
