What aspects of weather in-game are important to you?
Everything that was shown.

Do you feel anything is missing from the weather system that we’ve shared so far?
Everything is perfect.

Are there types of weather in other games that you feel are done well? If so, what makes the weather in those games good?
I don't play other games beyond FFXI that do a good enough job of weather, and that game is too old for comparison, other than to say that everything it could manage to do with it's 20-year old tech, has been lovingly recreated and I am 100% here for it , there's nothing to ask for when you've done everything.

Is there anything you’re excited or concerned about regarding what was shown with the weather system?
Glad you asked. (please merge this in if it doesn't deserve its own topic).
I have no concerns at this time.

That was spectacular. There's nothing left to say. Everything that you just showed us is exactly what the game should be. I've been concerned, and posted before about the incredibly immersive sound of footsteps in wet terrain, and the sound and experience of rain falling, so hearing both will be in there, and expecting interactions with wind as well, I'm ready to log in. Like @Azherae , I'm from FFXI (as far as meaningful weather goes), and you've got it covered. I've had experiences there that just suck me in immediately, and with everything I've seen, I expect to have just as many here.

Good job, guys. Seriously

What aspects of weather in-game are important to you?

Pretty much everything mentioned on the stream. The only point which wasn't specifically noted was weather and wind direction affecting the steering and speed of ships, as this seems like it would result in interesting gameplay.

Do you feel anything is missing from the weather system that we’ve shared so far?

This looks phenomenal so far, the weather tech is impressive, and the art direction and environment assets shown off on stream are, as always, fantastic. Looking forward to seeing more.

Are there types of weather in other games that you feel are done well? If so, what makes the weather in those games good?

I'll also echo the point Azherae made about FFXI - weather in that game had some pretty meaningful effects on everything from spawn rates of enemies to the effectiveness of magic, and in-game weather forecasts were important for planning activities.

Is there anything you’re excited or concerned about regarding what was shown with the weather system?

The system shown off on stream looked incredible in pretty much every way. My only real concern is the quantity of work from the art team that'd be required to replicate the level of quality seen on stream, for all areas in the game.

My feedback? HUGE THANK YOU! It looks amazing and I'm sure you'll make it even better before release.
