Here is a new official video from the FFXIV YouTube channel showing off the development team's work with the detailed character creator and motion capture animation.

Thanks for this, i knew the mostions of the characters looked way more fluid and real while i was watching a brodcast and i am probably one of the people who'd spend the first hour of the game making my Advatar. XD

I wonder who the poor bastard was that had to do the Taru animations, cuz they run like they have a cactus shoved up their ass. lol

The facial animations are pretty impressive this time around. This gets me pretty psyched...I'm definitely gonna be one of those people spending way too much time on character creation...

Good to see they're matching the amount of graphical detail with an equal amount of customization. Hopefully they release a character creator before launch so i don't spend the better part of the first day attempting to create the perfect character.

The characters look absolutely beautiful this time around. I can already see myself getting attached to mine because of the great animation and life-like movements. Combined with the physics being used in the game, this should be a real visual treat.

This wouldn't be too bad, I would also like one done because then as you said it would save me time as well as preserving my erge to skip ahead. Dose anyone have access to the beta web site? If they do could you make a thred sujesting this?

It all looks really nice, seems like they are really taking there time. Also i am not normally for emotes but holy crap...60...SIXTY EMOTES...wow..

i think its awesome that they are finally getting the amount of movement emotes up to what we have wanted. i always felt limited in FFXI or other games when i can only emote in chat.

I love spending as much time as possible getting every detail of my avatar just right. in some ways i feel im getting to know them. figuring them out. that way enjoying them so much more when im adventuring as apposed to just hopping in and swinging my sword.

Yeah, I'll probably spend, at least an hour, making my character.
