I do love the fact that this may just be the first time SE listened about a game. With the basic utter flopage of the first ff14, it was completely scraped. Here is to hoping that 14 comes out swinging, and can get a solid foothold like 11 did. With so many recent MMO disappointments, it'd be nice for A Realm Reborn to be a hit.

I agree, I think the flop of FFXIV taught them quite a lot about dealing with feedback.

Reminds me of the good old days of Selbina and my first boat ride to Buburimu Peninsula after hitting level 20. The excitement of my friends in that moment was unfathomable....

NegativeCreepWA4006d ago

Hey what a pleasant ride this is. Hey look, its a ship, wheres everyone running to? hmm whatever, I'll just keep fishing. Oh shit, whats that!! RUN!!! Everything fades to black.

That pretty much summed up my first trip.

The groups made to get your limit break items... Getting to the jungle for the first time.... And later on seeing sky and sea for the first time. Back when it was difficult, before all the nerfs.

LordHiggens4006d ago

Just scrap it Square...no more Final Fantasy MMOs. It's already causing you to bleed money as is. Money that could be spent on...idk, other things...that could make you freakin' MILLIONS of dollars...

Abriael4006d ago (Edited 4006d ago )

Quite obviously they aren't scrapping it. They're doing good of their promises to hundreds of thousands of customers.

So yeah, you just said something rather nonsensical. Good job.

LordHiggens4006d ago

Yeah screw you too buddy, your sarcasm isn't appreciated. Square needs to make good single player games again. Not this impersonal MMO rehashed grind-fest crap.

WildArmed4006d ago

Yeah, i think the team would be used better elsewhere. I think the FF11 should have stayed their last MMO.

I would much rather have more 'experimental' single player (FF13, Type-0,dissidia etc) games than this.

Xbox Profanity Filter Is Ruining the FFXIV Chat

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.

Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.

gold_drake21d ago

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?

"Boys have a penis. Girls have a vagina."

I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.

TheGamingHounds20d ago

Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched

Eidolon20d ago

it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape

Aphrodia20d ago

Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA20d ago

This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.

NOMATICENIGMA20d ago

You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.

CrimsonWing6920d ago

Geezus, Xbox, you get gifted gold and still f*ck things up.

NOMATICENIGMA20d ago

It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.

CrimsonWing6920d ago

Does this affect PC and PS4/PS5 users, too? Or is it only happening on Xbox?
