Except if it were baby photos, it would be like looking at before and afters of Michael Jackson. Only instead of turning into a white guy, he changes into a chick!

Wow there are so many retarded poeple in this topic.

Is this rapture? of couse it is! rapture was the code name. FFxi had one too.

Character Transfer? thats the stupidest thing i have ever heard. ITS A NEW GAME.

Well, if characters cannot be transferred from FFXI to FFXIV, then at the very least I would hope that all 20 of the current jobs in FFXI will be available in FFXIV along with some new ones for us to play with. (Necromancer anyone?)


.....i dont even know what to say to this one.

Here is somthing you guys might understand.

#156REDACTED, Posted: Jun 02 2009 at 12:58 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I know I'm probably odd man out on this but anyone think this might not be an MMORPG? Like maybe it'd be more like an old-school FF but you could play it with your friends online? Kind of like Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles but of course based in Vana'diel. The trailer seemed very CS heavy and we've only seen 3 or fewer "Warriors" in any scene. Just because it says Online doesn't make it have to be an MMO.

I love at the end where it says "join hands once again" Translation: You again need a group to do everything. Wait a couple years like for FFXI then release crap that you can do with 3 people. They still haven't learned...

LOL @ the same hair styles. See that hume M pic.

FFXI officially starts dying @ FF14 release.


Oh they have learned. Please for the love of god, dont make a solo friendly MMO and copycat WOW. WOW destroyed the MMORPG genre by introducing single player MMORPG and look what has happened to WOW. The point in an MMO is to play with other people, otherwise stick to a single player. Also dont make it casual please, as hardcore as FFXI was in the beginning please ^^

That's the new and improved sea horror, awaiting to crush you and your dreams on boats across FFXIV everywhere.

So when would that stop having summoning magic in it?
Summoning magic has been in every FF starting with FFIII, it's a series staple, not an FFXI staple, and Leviathan has been in FFII(not as a summon) III, IV, V, VI Advance, VII, VIII, IX and XI, so who's to say he won't be in XIV.

It's a mistake to release and MMO and not put it on the PC.

PS3 ONLY? Really? I dunno....

My main concern is whether or not they really have learned their lesson about combatting those who don't deserve to play their game. I could say a lot more than that, but that's the main issue to me. I have no doubt that it'll be an interesting and involving game to play.

I'll be anxious to see exactly what they've decided to keep out this go 'round, and what they've decided to build upon from their XI experiances.

They said PS3 console exclusive, it's coming to the PC as well.

the wording leads me to believe they are referring to it being PS3 exclusive in terms of consoles, not that its not going to be launched on PC as well

regardless, almost without a doubt there's going to be some followup announcements in the near future. otherwise, can't wait :D :D :D

Well, let the over-analysing of the trailer begin! We can so far establish that someone can make a neat looking bubble thing, and there are jelly fish for enemies (I imagine that's G but it looked lower quality than the rest, and these days you can't tell so easily which parts are which, it did look like an in-game cutscene or something though)

EDIT: also, the girl (i think) on the front page of the website has suspiciously elvaan ears, as in, specifically that kind rather than more pointy or the kind of expected elvish. Moar same race speculation! Male mithra this time please!

Don't know if this has been said. But for those saying that just because it only has "Online" under it, doesn't mean it's an MMO. Not necessarily proving it but the FFXI has the Online under it too. Check http://www.playonline.com/ff11us/index.shtml at the top to see.

Rofl at all the people hoping to have a character transfer option. The idea of losing your beloved "hard worked" (this is a game you play for fun, shouldnt really put it that way) characters might scare you now, but seriously, if they would add a possibility to transfer your old pimped out character with all the good gears and max lvl jobs to the game you would already lose half of the stuff that game has to offer.

At least I've had about a ton more of fun leveling my jobs, gathering end game gear and doing stuff like that, than doing events with my already good gear and max lvl jobs with nothing much more to accomplish. I'm sure not many of you remember your actual newbie days, when everything was fresh and weird and we all had a lot to learn, but I do - and it was hella fun. It was much easier to be one of the newbies than it is to be a veteran with newbies in a pt for example, I find my attitude to be completely different. Where I used to find all the stupid mistakes and wipes and stuff like that fun, I do not anymore, I just get a bit pissed when something like that happens.

So I'd actually like to have a fresh start, to be that guy standing on a new zone looking for new adventures without knowing much about anything that's ahead. Sounds a bit too dramatic for just a game but you get the point. If you try to remember the feeling you had in this game when everything was new and compare to the feelings you have about it now, when you've accomplished pretty much everything already, don't you miss that feeling? Because I sure as hell do.

That's a relief; that it's going to be on the PC as well.

Also a character transfer from FFXI to FFXIV, would be a huge mistake. It's ridiculous to think they'd let you bring in a character with maxed crafting/levels/merits/gear/etc into a brand new game. Talk about ruining it from the start.

Agreed with the lot you said, just ironically funny you mispelled 'sense' :P

This is looking to be interesting, I'll most probably get it from the start. And forget keeping name/model. I'd like my name but the model can be changed, I'd hope they've got some new looks this time around.

Also, FFXI was originally PS2 only, now you can join an exp party with one on PS2, PS3, 360, XP, Vista, and Linux (wine). A whole friggin team of people using different forms of media and OS to play the same game. For all of FFXI's faults you've got to give them credit for that at least.

SE stated it was an MMO along time ago.
