FFXIV in the video starts in minute 3:00
Have fun.
FF14
FF14
Was there a release date on this?
Keep in mind that the PS3 is still the leading console in Japan, and it is infinitely easier to develop a game for console and later port it to PC than the other way around.
SE also has a long-term domestic relationship with Sony (also a JP company) that probably makes it cheaper and easier to do initial development and distribution with them, rather than with Microsoft.
It makes sense for SE to target the initial release for the PS3 and branch out later, exactly the same way they did FFXI.
However, I doubt they will repeat the mistake of releasing it only in Japan for some period of time before suddenly opening it up internationally. They lost over half their subscribers when they did that with no warning or advertisement a year or two after FFXI's release.

Jesus do they hate us that much? ; ;
Anyway, after I see some more details about the fighting system and junk...
They just might get me.

Couldn't they have just done both simultaneously and been done with it?
Maybe they're going to seperate console and PC users this time around...avoid the hardware limitations that they face with PS2/360 this time around.
Man I don't wanna upgrade my xbox to the highest storage :/
I should calculate all the money I've spent on FFXI already :/ I'd still play ffxi and I know I'd wanna try out the this one ><.

No, there will be a ton of people that won't change. Too much investment into their ffxi character to dump it and start over.
Or just 0 desire (like me) to start a new MMO and put the time I put into ffxi into something else.
I'm probably going to try FF14 while still playing FFXI...if I like it more then I will definitly switch over. Certain things in FFXI annoy me (how the elvaan hold their weapons...how gay they stand..how certain pieces of armor look extremely HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE on them) If it turns out to be just like FFXI with better graphics then I'm not going to waste my money on it.
Damn Jaerik, reporting from E3 and ***. Mixed feelings about this, was definitely more "warrrrgh D:<" before Jaerik's comments, though. I guess I'll choose to be excited, as long as they include the elfs as always. <3
looks like theres a mithra in there too (red box to the left).
Im all confused 8( starting from 1 in a ff11-2 doesnt sound all that great T_T
5yrs on ffxi, I would hate to leave >.<'
5yrs x 13.95 monthly rate = $837 ^^;

I'm a sucker for new, and I've only been playing for about a year, I don't mind. Played PSU for two years and I dropped that pretty easily. Even if stuff doesn't work out, I've got other stuff.
I'm personally excited to hear more about this.

Not to mention starting when it's brand new and all the awesome quests no one has the slightest clue how to do yet:
NPC: "I need something!"
You: "What?"
NPC: "I need something!"
You: "Kill me"
; ; It's so pretty and realistic!
The galka in the video has no tail... but looks like it has the exact same face as one of our current galka.

Well not in real hurry to try something new especially since it seems to be a Ps3 exclusive
give it what 6months to a year b4 it goes multiplatform xD hopefully it has a expansion pack by then!
and I meant the end of FFXI. If SE will keep the servers up for it O.o?

I'm sure they will keep the servers up as long as they are profitable.
If this will be like any other high graphic thing out there...there will be jiggling >.>

Maybe, just maybe, there will be male Mithra in this one D:

If you look at the title at the end ...
It says FFXIV .... then flash white ... back to the title then it's FFXIV - Online -

Might have a little bit to do with the fact that it's an MMO.

Yeah, SE has done some silly things, but I doubt they would just up and gank FFXI in lieu of a new, untested MMO. ESPECIALLY if it's PS3 exclusive...that's eliminating a LOT of revenue streams right off the bat.
And besides, as long as there are enough people playing FFXI to populate 1 server (5000ish), I think FFXI will be running. They'll just merge low population servers down as need be.
