LMFOA...Personally idc if everyone on this site quits and goes and plays crappy lolWowcata every time I log in 14 my LS is full and the server is filled with people. The game definitely needs work but it seems ***is moving along in a good direction so I'm staying. If people quit they quit if they come back they come back. I hope people have fun with what ever decision they make because at the end of the day its a game and the sole purpose is to get enjoyment for your $$$.

You say the words, but we all know people saying they don't like XIV makes you mad. Jumping straight on the "LOLWOWCATA" wagon proves that. Who's to say I'm playing Wow? I can appreciate a good game and not play it.

Your = possessive, meaning belonging to you. Example: Your argument is dumb.
You're = You are. Example: You are HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE.

Seriously, is everyone who is a complete douchebag also a complete moron? With a Japanese flagged character I hope to God you're not an English teacher.

Simple fact is here Unmei, people disagee with you here. GET OVER IT.

Disagree with me about what? These are the only arguments I was proposing.

1) The game still needs work but seems to be moving in the right direction.

2)People need to stop crying on here because that will not change anything, instead of sending their complaints to SE where it "might" make a difference depending on how many people complain.

3)People should play WoW if they don't like 14.

4) That's really Flion in his avatar.

5)14 wasn't created in a Chinese sweatshop.

1) Too slowly, which brings me to point number two:

2) I'll complain where I like WHEN I like. The only person damaging the game is a yes-man like you. Assuming SE stroll forums to see common complaints (Which is likely seeing as gripes from BG always make it in the Q&A lodestone posts) then I'm helping this game FAR more than you by pointing out my problems with it.

3) People should play a complete game > a non complete game. Wow has nothing to do with it, but it seems to make you very bitter.

4) That's a huge compliment.

5) Prove it.

Idk I ask myself the same question but people have been comparing the two prior to 14's release. I suppose because WoW is the most popular/sucessful MMO out atm. It could also be because 14's has adopted many wow characteristics like the battle system and Level Quest.

idk, it seems to me that it's targeted at WoW players though

and the 2 sites are for ffxi and ffxiv

so it doesn't seem to make sense to me

Also there a lot of people saying they are leaving 14 for WoW cata.

WoW is the 800lb gorilla in the room. They have 120 people for every 1 person that plays XI or XIV.

They suck all the oxygen out of the room when MMO's are discussed just by nature of being who they are. It would actually be awkward and unnatural to never bring them up.

WoW was compared to 11 and now 14. its not something new that only 14 ppl are talking about. lol wonder what game ppl compared runescape to?
It's always gonna be like this. shouldn't bother asking why its pointless and would add a few more pages to the topic. i dont see the appeal to the blown up world thing. they did it on guild wars 1 in like the first 3o min of the game and it kinda made me mad

I guess the job descriptions posted last month listing for "fluent in Chinese" is just for fun and Horse Bird and Chocopo never happened then along with the many other mistranslations for weapon skills and abilities that were found in the early Japanese versions.

It might not be a sweat shop, but there's an obvious third party that's very likely Chinese based working on XIV.

The original Japanese version of the game wasn't just "mistranslated," it was basically entirely in Chinese poorly grafted back to Japanese. It used Chinese characters and terms that don't even exist in the language.

When Japanese players complained, they redid it all by katakana-izing the English version of the game back into Japanese. Where it's now sometimes almost as bad, just from the other direction. =)

To this day, comments by the developers as well as the release notes are often clearly not written by someone with Japanese as a first language, and the account page and other parts of the game are simply baffling in their terminology.

Trust me, "to create characters on your service account, you must possess automatically continuous options" sounds just as unnatural in Japanese as it does in English.

I wouldn't be surprised if when corporate gave the XIV dev team the orders and a certain date that they knew they couldn't have it done and shat bricks trying to organize off shored teams to finish key assets and wound up with China not being able to deliver promised assets by due date.

I also wouldn't be surprised if while the story was being done by the JP studio, some of the games writing and/or NPC names/text/abilities were first written out in a Chinese based version and then translated back into JP/EN/FR/GR. From what I read and saw the JP version had a great deal of "Chinglish" in it's beta.

I could be entirely wrong though.

I can easily believe 14 was outsourced to china to save money but I just find it hard to believe it was done in a sweatshop that' all I'm saying lol.
