Wow, that's not good.

This franchise seriously needs a reboot. . .

Hopefully the PS3 version is better when it releases. I wouldn't be surprised if Sqaure duped the PC buyers by using them as Beta for the eventual PS3 version, which is really sucky if true. 

I'm not much of a Final Fantasy fan, but most MMO's usually start real shitty and then they're vastly improved over the year, so it might still be ok to keep your eyes on the game over the next few months.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Says the person who hasn't played a single mainline one this gen

Every FF IS effectively a reboot

If you actually read the FFXIV review you'd know a reboot won't solve any issues at all.....a reboot won't magially make bad UI and so on disappear. Lmao



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Have you even played the game?  There's no excuse for how awful it is.

I understand MMO's are large projects and I'm fine with the first few months having issues, but all the problems FFXIV has cannot be fixed in a month and are pretty inexcusable.

I'll say it again, there's no reason we should be punished for SE rushing out the game.


it is pretty bad, but there is potential. My plan is to play out my free month before I dicide to cancel, and wait until they fix everything at a later time. They could fix a lot of mess before my free trial ends too. So while I play for free, I'll be patient until I make a final judgement.

 

edit: almost rank 20 gladiator. hehe



You know, Deskpro, when we plonk our hard earned money on a game, we expect perfection, or at least a playable game. We do not want a game that "Might have potential".

 

Everything about FF 14 inconveniences the player.

Wow...... They're ruining the FF series (for me). First XIII ,and now this. *sigh*

The fact the Wagram dislikes this game tells you how bad the game really is...

Square Enix..Bunch of idiots.

I think they blew their budget on making the game look pretty and forgot about the important gameplay part?

It is all Enix fault!! Where is Hironobu Sakaguchi when you need him... Wait! He owns Mistwalker. Come on Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo. Give him money to develop more games! Can't wait for Last Story!
