Square Enix surprised everyone on Tuesday when it announced at Sony's E3 press conference that not only would Final Fantasy XIII hit stores next year, but so too will Final Fantasy XIV Online -- a follow-up MMO from the same team that brought you Final Fantasy XI in 2002. But the information flow didn't stop there. On Wednesday, Square Enix also held a press conference of its own to provide some additional context to the previous day's news. But honestly, IGN still wasn't satisfied with how much FF14 info was out there, so they managed to grab an interview with the Final Fantasy XIV team yesterday afternoon to see if they could answer some additional questions.
And now, with multiple days of info and some probing, they present the following: everything they know about the game thus far. Some of it you've already heard, some of it you haven't, but either way, it's the most info you'll find on the game yet. Enjoy
Final Fantasy XIV fans can now properly benchmark their PCs and check out some of what's coming to their game this summer.

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.
What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?
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.
Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched
it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape
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.
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.
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.
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.
I dont like fees...If i "BUY" the game they why should i pay again to play it?
besides that i think its great for those who like to spend infinite hours grindn and leveling all in the hope of obtaining that shiny ultimate uber weapon/armor.

Structure of this sentence is HORRIBLE. Square-Enix didn't announce anything at Sony's conference. Sony announced that FFXIV (a S-E) gasme would be launched in 2010.
Come on, how is this stuff getting published?
Final Fantasy versus 13 is the one I'm excited for.
This game has my interest. Ff11 was a great game.
And the return to Vanadiel is exciting.
I can't wait for this game. Everything I'm reading about it so far sounds great.
