A new beginning
A title screen that flies over Vana'diel, and character creation with portraits, stats and a live preview at every step.
The interface
From the title screen to the item cards, every menu was redrawn in one style, readable at any size and at home with a controller.
It still feels like Final Fantasy XI. It just finally feels like now.
From the title screen to the item cards, every menu redrawn in one style, readable at any size and at home with a controller.
A title screen that flies over Vana'diel, and character creation with portraits, stats and a live preview at every step.
Compass, target, party and ability lists in one clear style. Move and resize every piece.
Everyone you called, their stance, their orders and how chatty they should be, all in one window.
Every storyline, where you are in it and what comes next. Pick one and the Wayfinder shows the way.
Clear cards for every item: stats, jobs and levels at a glance, and gear your job can't wear greyed out.
Resolution, frame rate, frame generation and HDR, all in one in-game Graphics menu.
Zoning shows where you are going: the map of the next zone drawn in light while it loads.
Select, copy, paste and emoji in the chat line, and your history survives a reload.
Rebind every key and button, keyboard or controller, from one Controls menu.
A minimap with the zone's map, the day, the weather and the zone lines, under a compass that points the way.
An outline round your target, a new mouse cursor, a macro palette, restyled auction house menus and gear that changes without the blink.
Make an account in two minutes, install the launcher, and walk out of the gates of your home nation again.
