http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/ So they finally got their shit together and "2.0" is on the horizon. This includes the PS3 release. Apparently there's been a shitload of changes to the game in the time since we last gave a fuck about it. I won't lie, I've kept the game installed on my computer this whole time with the hope that they'll somehow make it good and fun so I can try it again. I'm definitely going to give it another month spin once this 2.0 version drops. It certainly LOOKS very much like the Final Fantasy MMO I actually wanted. A boy cat furry? -------------------- |

It looks like they just totally remade a completely new game. The last FF wasn't exactly a completed game to begin with. It had empty dungeons with no quests and empty frontiers with nothing to do.
I still feel Squaresoft owes me a free gift card for playing their paid alpha test of FFXIV. |

Godammit, I'm not falling for this shit again. Read up on Guild Wars 2 and get excited for that instead.

And then everyone plays it for 5 days, and it's forgotten about again.

I still feel Squaresoft owes me a free gift card for playing their paid alpha test of FFXIV. It really is a whole new game. They built a new graphics engine, and they're having some kinda "cataclysm" event in the story as an excuse for entirely new world maps and such. The game itself has (apparently) been evolving away from the old leves/class system to something more in line with traditional FF classes as well. And they totally removed "Battle Regimen" since it didn't ever actually work in the first place. I do hope there's some kind of free "we're sorry the game sucked before" pass or something, I'm with you on that. Paid $50 for a shitty incomplete game a year ago, what a rip! -------------------- |

Is there a gameplay trailer somewhere? I can't seem to find one. If not I feel that the management at Square-Enix still don't seem to get it. They seem to be stuck in the early 2000s showing off pre-rendered cutscenes. The screenshots are nice and show off a pretty damn slick UI, but if they want to restore faith in players they need to show off gameplay after gameplay as soon as possible. A lot of people got burned by this game, and after FFXIII-2 and cancellation of Versus rumor, are feeling burned by Square-Enix as a whole. I am in the latter. Not a good start to regain the faith in fans in my opinion. I will buy Tomb Raider though.
I am still keeping my eye on this, however. -------------------- |

And then you have the folks like me that shelled out for the collector's box. Maybe I'll give this another shot if they add a blue mage type job.

I'll probably be playing PSO2 JP until they decide to kick us filthy foreign devils out. -------------------- "Computers are incredibly fast, accurate and stupid.

Shit camera work, but from what could be seen... FF14 looks totally different visually. I hope that smooth looking gameplay holds up. |

check my post again specifically the part about "weapons" i only cared about offline mode in phantasy games back when i only had dial up. i'm told future updates are adding more weapons though. as for beast...i played my human the most in psu and phantasy star portable. and its not like cast has a 400 point lead in atp like they did in pso1.
