The latest edition of Famitsu Wave recently hit newsstands in Japan, bringing with it a DVD which contains an 8-minute exposé on Square Enix's second stab at the MMO genre, Final Fantasy XIV. The whole video is posted after the break. Fret not -- it sports convenient English subtitles. Here's some of the more titillating excerpts: The game features a reinvented character progression system which does not include experience points or leveling up. The job system from XI will make an appearance, but in a heavily altered form -- an interview with the game's director, Nobuaki Komoto, revealed that the game will place a focus on the weapons players use, explaining that your armaments will determine "the way you play" and "the way you grow." Sounds reminiscent of Final Fantasy IX. (That's a very good thing.) In addition, FFXIV producer Hiromichi Tanaka explained that the game takes place in a new region with a more "modern" feel to it -- the mysterious Eorzea which was mentioned in the trailer. The new world features familiar races (albeit with new names), and plays host to a "deep story," which is told through cut-scenes and quests. For more FFXIV info than you can possibly handle, check the video after the jump. sounds similar to monster hunter no? Race Scans QUOTE Someone translated the text on BG Forums regarding the characters:
"When you make your character, aside from choosing the race, you will also be able to customize their appearance. Head, skin color, hair type etc, there will be multiple factors. Just how exact we will be able to customize their appearance is still unknown, but we mean it in a good way when we say that it seems like it will become a worry to many players." -------------------- |

Okay so here's the plan.
I decided I'm gonna get the game, not becuase I liked 11, I actually hated 11. But because it's fun dicking around with you guys. We're gonna start a Galka clan or Rygadyn whatever the hell they called. The guild is gonna be Called NWA. We all take the first names of Westcoast Rappers and use Chocaboo as our last names. Crush called Tupac Chocaboo Tanshin called Snoop Chocaboo I'm going with Icecube Chocaboo Remember, only Galkas allowed! -------------------- "Brotherhood asked for no friendship, only loyalty. They stood back to back as the galaxy burned - always brothers, never friends; traitors together unto the last." --an Excerpt from a Night Lords Novel Void Stalkers Chapter X: Revenge |

I made a taru (lalafell? gayyyy) named Frederick Durste and his retainer Bisquite. Showin' all you whoresons how to fuse rap and rock all while being three foot nothing. Just gotta find the recipe for Hempen Ballcap (Red) and I'll be set. |
