Honestly I like the way the stat system sounds, because I loved SaGa Frontier. I'd probably give it a shot, but like I said before, not buying a PS3 or a new computer any time soon. If it is released on XBox 360, then maybe. Rogue and I have discussed going 50-50 on a XBox 360, but I dunno. So many games I'd like to try, or buy... with my current situation, it doesn't look good. The job front is poor here, so I guess I'll be a broke-ass gamer for a while longer.

Yeah well make sure he understands 50/50 means you gotta share it.

I wonder if FF14 wil be SE's way of completing some of their unfinished content from FF11. You know, like Aht Urgan or whatever. Just a thought.

Apparently the game will have the same races, but it will be set in a different world.
I think this will help with the EQ1/EQ2 problem, but then why would we have the same races in another world? That just doesn't work for me.
I still however like the short races. I would so be a Taru.

They bring in a Battlestar Galactica tilt to the story. The Beastmen overtake Vana'Diel so the five races take off on a space ship to find a new home....called Earth. I dunno. I'm talking out of my ass now.

OMG, Tarus were so awesome. Best RPG race ever. Nothing has ever been as cute as a taru. Caller and I were discussing an offline FFXI last night. That would be so, so wonderful. I doubt that will ever come true, but someone mentioned it passingly in an interview, so maybe it's possible. -- Speaking of FFXI... consumerist.com/5302343/game-publisher-square-enix-slapped-with-class-action-suit-for-false-advertising-product-enrichmentLawlz. He was tricked into paying a monthly fee? Really? Funny how it says you have to subscribe to PlayOnline and pay monthly fees right on the box. Oh. And warning, RL mithra ass.

Yep, it says right on the box with a first month free. Not only that, if he honestly did not know that you had a monthly fee, wouldn't he question why the game is asking for credit card information?
I would like it if they made an offline FF11. I would like to visit Vana'diel again and see the story once more. But I don't want to go online again.

I havent played in a long time either, and probably wont pick it up again. It was visually too stressful for me, and well, like I said before it take 4 hours to just get online, get dressed, pick your job, plan your level up area, sit for an hour to find a party, only to find yourself kicked when his lol g/f just showed up. The only way I ever got to see what higher up places looked like was Yhamuna was entrusted to me. I got to see so many things I could have never seen on my own, and there fore, have almost zero interest in returning. I miss so many people, but dont miss the time commitment or the BS.
And, ahem! if you dont want to PAY then dont give your CC info dumbass. And since when do mitra's have a tramp stamp? that was nasty! Just think what that will look like at 60. ewww!

Tatoos look way sexier when they are on the back of a woman. Right below the neck. Right above the ass is trashy. Not to mention redundant. All those things you mention. I am sure SE will fix all that for FF14. They were already making all that easier on people with the gear capping and solo play in FF Ereven.

na.finalfantasyxiv.com/Look at the races... they are almost exact replicas of FFXI. What changes have been made are OK, except for the new mithra. They look less feline than before. I hope they slimmed down the elvaan in this game, the females seemed a little on the plump side. I'm a fat girl in real life, I'd rather not pretend to be one in a game. Unfortunately, I'm starting to want this. I think because I still miss the old days of FFXI, I was so happy playing it then. I will attempt to gather up the money and get a way to play this. Need a job! I'm hoping after I get a job, I will be able to build a computer from scratch that will be suitable to play the game.

They shoulda kept the names of the races. Why change em? I know its a differant world but people are still gonna call them Tarutaru's and Mithra.

The FFXIers have already made another wiki huh... Of course, this name isn't as cute and appropriate as the other one. I still really, really want this game. Every time I see pics or a video I want it even more. Elves still appear to be lanky apes, but I'm not surprised... The Lalafell are just as cute as Tarus though, so I want one.

I will buy it. I noticed a cursor floating around so it makes me wonder if it will be PC only. Or maybe PS3/360 will have their own mice usable with the game. Hard to say. Seems kinda strange to be playing a console game with a mouse. Or maybe that was simply the PC version.
The thing I am most interested about this game is how the level system will work. As we have said, probably something similar to FF2 or the SaGa games but I really want to see if that is true and if it is, to see how well it will work in an online game.
