    Okay, let's see if anyone else is paying attention to this. I'm playing a female character, my wife plays a male character. Wherever I go, I seem to have lensflares following me, as though Sega set them up to stalk lolis or something. Her character, on the other hand, gets no lensflare love. She has been constantly cajoling, begging, bribing the game, etc., but still there have been no lensflares escorted by magical happy Rappys or anything like that.

    So I ask you, has anyone else seen this fragrant display of lensflare chauvinism, or is it just us?

    You mean the luck thing next to our name? It is somewhat sexist, but male do get better stats across most of the classes... so I don't mind.

    It's not that. Here's what he means:



    And here:



    Notice the lens flare in the background of the second that is absent in the first? His character seems to get it all the time. It's not a case of graphics cards, mind...I'm the one with the better card and faster system, while his is on the lowest settings.

    But I at least get all the Rappy love. XD

    Well, yeah, I have mentioned it to her about that Rappy stalking thing, but she's been getting on my case about the damn lensflares following me all over the place.

    I experience those aplenty on 360, so I dont think it's a processing problem, I always assumed it was supposed to be there. That's rather odd, but I think it's generally just the fault of the camera angle at the time they show up on the screen (as I've never really had them pop up/be in my way during fighting, only while looking around with the cam).

    Why don't you guys put the graphic setting to the same and see if there is any difference again?

    Because she's playing on HIGHER settings. By reason, she should be getting a lot more graphics fun out of the system than I should. My computer simply can't match her specs, which is why I have mine running lower.

    For example, note that Haydn's screen (hers) is at higher resolution than Shizuka's (mine). Because her card can handle more, it should make sense that she should see not only lensflares, but other stuff as well (I, on the other hand, see squares instead of butterflies and dragonflies and my system still artifacts quite a bit).

    Yet lensflares are coming out perfectly on my computer and not on hers. Even more so, when playing my male ranger, the lensflares disappear. This is why I'm wondering if it's a matter of gender orientation and not tied to graphic performance, per se.
