Did you really make a thread showing off an MMO on PC set to max settings (cause trust me, that's what this is) just to take a cheap shot at a single player console RPG? Uhm...ok.
Xenoblade is Scifi, not fantasy. And it handles that "alien world" space opera feel quite well. It has great level/world design, great monster design, and some great armor designs. You may not like the character artstyle for the faces and that's fine, but they do have some great designs for other aspects of the characters. Xenoblade is massive and open so I don't know what you're getting at with that. It's not as big as an MMO but come on. MMOs are stretched to those sizes to allow for large player populations and enough enemy spawns to accommodate them. It has several alien environments with unique atmospheres and enemies. And XCX isn't even out yet so judging the *soundtrack* is a bit silly. And there have been some truly great musical numbers in Xenoblade's numerous videos. If you are more interested in FF than Xenoblade, congratulations, you have an opinion. But don't use such a silly comparison to take cheap shots. It's uncalled for.

Just to clarify something. FFXIV is an MMORPG on PC, PS4, and PS3.
I'm not saying XCX is bad, but if FFXIV looks good on PS3 then I think XCX needs to step it up.

But that trailer is not running the PS3 settings, trust me on that. It's running max PC which looks far better. I can't comment on other aspects of technical performance cause I am not familiar with FFXIV, but I will say there are noticeable differences between the strain of a game world made up of snapped together walled in sections like most MMOs and a full open world like Skyrim or Xenoblade Chronicles X. I don't know if FFXIV is one of those or a middle ground.

True, comparing PS3 and PC, the PC version is better. The only difference is the PS3 version has less polygons, and framerates.
But this game in general is design in a way as a stand alone rpg which just happens to be online. The expansion "Heavensward" has enough content as a stand alone final fantasy rpg.
