Looks so much better than FFXIII. Let's see what SE is doing with FFvsXIII. That will blow FFXIII in any possible way.

that whole gimped thing is retarded
the visuals maybe but the gameplay, story and the whole no town thing was probably already as is before announced for the 360.
I really don't think they would make that many changes to the game after deciding to make a 360 version that late in development.
two FFvsXIII hasn't even been shown that much and three this is a MMO, not that great of a comparison.

I don't have a 360. I'm a PC PS3 guy but enough with the crying

I hope it is as addictive as FFXI but I also hope that if they add Trophies that they don't make one where you have to advance all classes to max. Let's keep the game fun and make it look especially good for an MMO.

...It looks like it will be better than XI, but I hate MMO’s... so I don’t know if I’ll ever actually play this game.

[Raoh]

i dont know about better than ffxi, i didn't like WoW because i felt it was dumbed down and too easy...

ffxi offers a level of complexity when it comes to sub jobs, stat placement, party make up etc.

and SE's track record lately is to dumb things down.. even making every class soloable. which defeats the purpose of an mmorpg..

i'm interested in FFXIV but i'm containing myself until see more for myself..

[whatis]

Yeah, but does it have towns?

[Myst]

Yes...

[SUP3R]

You're being sarcastic right?

[CotieD]

Looking forward to this!

I have been a long time FFXI fan and I'm really hoping to get into the beta. I'm just not sure if I want to use my FFXIII code to get into the PS3 version or the keep my luck with the PC version. (And linking it to my FFXI profile)

I'm curious about how much it'll be per month. How much was the monthly fee for FF11?

[nefertis]

im curious to know too. Playb3yond

30 Day free trial first, then 12.95 after you purchase your first content ID [ which is essentially a slot that will be used to make your character.] After that it's a dollar more just to make another character. Tetra Master [ the game on playonline] was a dollar to.

So basically the starting point is 12.95 and it's really your option to stay there or move depending on what you plan to do in FFXI. Such as have a mule character or not, or even play Tetra master.

Il be interested in this if it has a good solo story element. If its 50/50 multi/solo il probably give it ago. Im still having nightmares about FFXI and its insane time consuming difficulty.

[maxcer]

seeing what they did late in FFXI's life with the easing of solo exp, i think they will take a more casual approach to XIV while still having the content to satisfy the hardcore MMO player. The real test if they can implement an economy that wont be bullied by gold farmers.

@above- the standard MMO fees apply, expect to see $15/mo

[Myst]

Yeah they [Square-Enix] have stated that they are making the game so that it would be possible for those who can play for 5 hours a day. As well as looking to those who can only play like an hour a day. A drastic change from the early and latter life of XI in which one had to sell their soul just to get far :p.

im not convinced to pay for my online experience on my ps3, but this game might just do that, actually nevermind, graduating college is such a bitC^
