I just can't get excited for this game

And nor will most of the FF fans......like FF11 before it it will hardly be acknowledged as a main FF.

Sad but true.


Sorry, but you are very, very wrong.

Final fantasy by its very nature as a series is constanly changing. With new styles, gameplay types, charactors, worlds, storylines, battle systems, etc.  Take for example FFVII and FFXII, two totally different RPGs and the only thing that links them together is the following:

  • Spell names,
  • Gil
  • A man called Cid
  • Men called Biggs and Wedge
  • Chocobo

And thats it, thats all that links most final fantasy game together.  The very term Final Fantasy fan is ridiculas becuase of the huge difference in styles from game to game.  Most people that have followed the series will have games in the series that they dislike (for many FFVII fans, FFVIII was awful.  Many FFIV fans think FFIX was then next best FF game).

FFXI followed the Final Fantasy nature by changing its style to one thats different to the FF games before it.  That is why its a FF game.  People that think FFXI should not of been in the main line of FF games just don't understand the nature of FF games at all.

@maverick & you

I have not disputed a single thing you have said

I have just told you what is generally seen on the internet.....FF fans when comparing FF games never ever mention FF11.....and most of them forget there is a FF11 most of the time.

That is what I and tons of other people have noticed.

Chill out both of you.

Looks good, the graphics remind me of Everquest 2.

 

I will probably pick this up for the 360, maybe PC but WoW gets my MMO love.

whats the point in getting it for the xbox lol if you aint got a ps3 just get it for pc because they havnt even ofishaly anounced it for the xbox yet and they hav said that if it does come to the xbox it will be after the ps3 and pc vertions come out


Dont worry Square has said this game will be multi, they where just waiting for a plan with MS on how this will be played

The ball is in MS court for the game to be released, It would be foolish for them to turn it down!!



If MSFT doesn't get on board then they are stupid. They must really not like the fact that PS3/360 will play together. and SE have already stated they will not separate servers by system.



The graphics look nice but I think it'll end up being tossed in with ffXI. i don't think many fans go to FF for an mmorpg style game

That's a shame because XI is amazing and too many cheap-os will not try it.

Jack Tretton said it will be PS3 only in 2010.

Well this looks to be better than FFXIII especially the music.



 

Yeah in 2010 only. Maybe some deal with Sony. But this game WILL be on the 360. Count on it.



Yes it will, it would be stupid not to be.....actually t may even sell more on 360 in the end (in the west)

Jack chose his words VERY WELL at last E3

"and FFXIV will be coming in 2010....and the only CONSOLE you can play it on in 2010 is the PS3"
