I expect they just want to stop having to support the DX9 version. 90%+ of steam users now have a 64bit OS, so the DX9 version is becoming a progressively larger waste of resources. A Switch version would be 64bit regardless of that though. Why would you riot over something that's unlikely to effect your experience? FF14 is a game i care about a lot, and I've been pretty vocal about my personal disdain for the Switch's hardware. If i thought there was a reason to worry about a Switch version of FF14, i'd be bitching all over this thread :p |
It will effect my experience. Final Fantasy XIV is patched regularly, and Square Enix needs those patches to go live on every platform at the same time. Microsoft and Nintendo both have different weird policies, and I don't want the dev team to devote resources that would potentially cause delays.
Plus, I don't see FFXIV on the go being a thing. There is just to many variables to worry about. wifi connection, storage space, and don't even try to play without a keyboard.. Besides, I think Switch will have frame rate issues, and object pop-in/outs. Better to just focus on more content and features.
