I'm wondering how the Steam version will work. Will people who already have the game and it's old download be able to just download the steam version and run the game from steam or will getting the game require you to buy it again?

SE let old players from the original version of the game get the game for free when it relaunched but I wonder if the Steam release will do the same.

TekoIie3779d ago (Edited 3779d ago )

They've done this with MMO's before like EVE Online and it usually ends up requiring you repurchase the game to gain the steam version benefits like trading cards and achievements :(

MrTrololo3779d ago

Y you no release FFIX for PC !!!

Irishguy953779d ago (Edited 3779d ago )

Here: http://www.epsxe.com/

Then either torrent it, or stick your original disk in. Or pay 10 euro to get a 15 year old game on Ps3/Vita

The modding of the FF games normally isn't that great? Unless I missed something recently?

MrTrololo3779d ago

Nah i prefer they release it on PC because of the possibility of modding

iamtehpwn3779d ago

Really? Have you not seen the FF7 mods people have out there for the PC version? They're amazing!

Irishguy953779d ago

Which ones? The only ones i've seen are reskins and...thats it really, replacing the midi files with the Mp3 ones of the Ps1 version too(PC version lacked voices in the music and stuff)

XishikiX3778d ago (Edited 3778d ago )

There's difficulty mods, new character models (these aren't reskins), reskins, backgrounds Fractilized, Remixed FMV's, Redone Menu's, a variety of soundtracks, etc.

I see Square are turning to the old games to make a quick buck...

They losing money or what?

reaper243779d ago

@NiteX

Yeah, but this article isn't about those games.

iamtehpwn3779d ago

@NiteX
Even if he did mean FF7 and 8, they were originally released PS1 and PC, and those versions currently don't run on modern PC's or any resolution above 640x480, so even though I'm sure Square did make a quick buck for not much effort, putting them on Steam with technical updates so that the PC Versions would run on modern PC's just seemed like a good thing to do anyway.

GentlemenRUs3779d ago

Oh boy... Looks like I posted this in the wrong article :P

But still... You know what I mean.

LAWSON723779d ago

Square just release them all on PC and I will get them

bligmerk3779d ago

The big deal is Valve developing a Square partnership.

Wonder how many people are starting to see what happens when SteamOS is a Boot OS? Steam is a very effective wrapper for games, but it also has another tab for Software. There is a vast array of game development tools building up there. SteamOS could mean it won't be necessary to boot into Windows not too long from now.

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_drake16d ago

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK16d ago (Edited 16d ago )

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

RedDevils15d ago

DivineHand12516d ago

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.

TheGamingHounds15d ago

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

Eidolon15d 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

Aphrodia16d 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.

shinoff218316d ago

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA16d 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.

NOMATICENIGMA15d 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.

CrimsonWing6916d ago

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

NOMATICENIGMA16d 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.

CrimsonWing6916d ago

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