About the FFXIV character model updates

Are you happy with how your character looks in the benchmark client?

Ecstatic!

Definitely an upgrade, pretty happy.

Mixed feelings, mostly positive.

Indifferent

Mixed feelings, kinda iffy.

Definitely a downgrade, pretty bummed.

This is my personal umbral calamity.

Curious what people's feelings are for the new character model updates in the Dawntrail benchmark client. YOUR character specifically. I've been seeing a mix of opinions so far.

Official artwork of Hades from the Shadowbringers artbook. I dunno if people generally get as excited for concept art as I do, but hopefully it can at least be nice drawing reference for folks. I really enjoy the model sheets for the arms, I wish the artbook had turnarounds for his second form though, I know I’ve seen them somewhere before.

Found those Hades turnarounds I mentioned a while ago, or rather, Creative Uncut did earlier this month. (Great site btw, check it out if you love concept art.) This stuff wasn’t even in the artbook, so I’m glad they turned up.

somehow he’s gotten even angrier, godbless

Official artwork of Ancient One and Ancient Two, from the Shadowbringers Artbooks. They both look very polite!

Ancient-Selch is definitely on that Eureka grindset. (Concept art from the Endwalker Artbook)

Even more concept art of Shadowbringers: This time it’s Amaurot (the dungeon) and the Dying Gasp.

Looking at all this artwork really does remind me of how both mystifying the whole climax of Shadowbringers was, I remember being really grumpy I was still being made to do fetch quests after all that stuff on Mt. Gulg happened, then they threw the entire Amaurot segment at me and I was immediately invested again.

Some of my favorite Emet-Selch quotes. Not really sure why the FFXIV community overlooks them so often, guess they’re just less memorable than his bossfight dialogue and stuff. Regardless, the writing/localization is always on point with this guy.
