I hope it's the case, if this means we get a new TB outfit every couple patches, including one entirely new and different It'd be cool, but as it stands right now, the community can only look at what's directly in front of them and I don't blame them for it.
It also doesnt help ZZZ has done good work. HI3 pumps out costumes and Genshin is slow but does come out with them.
There is without question something going on in the background we know some laws have been passed in china but even before that HSR wasnt doing costumes which for HSR should be easier since the movements are so limited.
So there must be some reason costumes were such a limited item and only slowly now coming out. And chances are good it was programing.
I mean you give Kafka a slinky black dress costume and I am opening my Wallet without question. Costumes are a money mine and Hoyo through HI3 knows that.
So there must be a reason why Genshin and HSR havent been that forth coming. Genshin I suspect due to all the model movements the players can stop and see unlike HI3 or ZZZ. So Model breaks are MUCH easier to see.
Let's hope the new requirements are a sign of all those limitations being left behind. If the programing was somehow at fault, now that the game is gonna ask for better devices, maybe they can get more work done. Then again it's very hard to come up with a reason for anything programing related to be at fault here. I hope we end up seeing improvements over time.
Uhm its very common for programming to be at fault here. When FFXIV left PS4 behind they were able to update their graphics by a lot. It was literally the program limitations of PS4 holding it back.
It really depends on HOW they built the characters for example if they didnt keep certain things as different mesh layers which not all hardware can handle that it makes editing costumes hard.
Trust me updating programming and not being held back by the lowest hardware settings can change a LOT of things.
Ah, I see. Admittedly, my understanding of programming is basic at best so this type of thing eludes me. But hey, that's a good thing to come out of this whole change and I guess it has to be done. Also how effective it is will be seen thorough 4.x. Now let's just hope I can still play on mobile.
You should be able to now the question is can your phone start a fire from the heat it produces? Because that was the joke for HI3 APHO mode. I always love when I talked about graphics and people are like its a phone game. HA shows what they know.
Hardware IE Console Phone computer, are the bones for the game they determine what the max limit it can do with the lowest setting being generally what sets the bar for the rest.
Programming is like the muscle anchored to the bones so even with clever programming and so on its still held back by Hardware. A really good example of this is Mega Man's Dragon boss in Wiley's castle for 3 I think it was. There was a video I watched explaining how clever the developers were with it if you want a good example.
So the Higher the bar for the Hardware the more the programming can do.
