FFXI with next gen graphics..... let the grinding begin. /cry

Ryudo5474d ago

Xero will you please piss off out of the FFXIV threads it's clear your just a Bioware fanboy with a bone to pick.

Your always the first one to post with something pointless that doesn't help the thread at all.

Drazz5474d ago

Wow, who wizzed in your cereal? I played FFXI for 4 years, and it was a grindfest, and this game looks to be nearly the same with better graphics.... just sayin

@xero

If you played it for 4 years is either

1) You loved the game and I wouldnt understand why you are complaining

or

2) Yo are a masochistic

Drazz5474d ago

I'm complaining about the fact that they are remaking the same thing, I wanted some innovation....

raztad5474d ago

Wait and see. SE has been changing all their games, trying to innovate and appeal more the western market. I'd be very surprised if this was an exception to that.

Kinda weird the way 14 is coming out before the other 13's. Has that ever happened before? Agito XIII should just be called Agito and Versus should be FF15

DA_SHREDDER5474d ago (Edited 5474d ago )

Indeed, I wouldn't want my name tarnished by FF13 if I was a dev. BTW, this game is looking to be a beast. I cannot wait to give you my money if it plays as good as it looks. Ps3 beta now please. Thank you Squeenix.

Do you not see this happening during development? Like, why are we apologizing after the fact instead of stopping it during development?

Stopac1d 1h ago

Criticism and reflection occur after the fact. The apology acknowledges the past criticisms with the new expansion and they're keeping transparency with players about it. Now that they've acknowledged it - it will be interesting to see what kind of cycle we'll get with a new expansion and I wonder if they're planning something special with beast master since they didn't mention it in the last live letter.

It's all good, as long as the price of the product decreases.

Stopac1d 1h ago

The base game and expansion go on sale all the time and doesn't stay full price for very long since a new expansion is on the horizon.

If you're stating they should reduce the price of new expansions or the sub fee, no, that's not gonna happen lmao people aren't even complaining about that. They are criticizing the same old pattern of content that releases and how it is devolving into mediocracy.

"They are criticizing the same old pattern of content that releases and how it is devolving into mediocracy."

The product should be cheaper then.

I was unhappy with DT and have spent far less time in it than any other expansion but it's things like this that makes me respect Yoshi P. It's rare for such a high profile developer to be so candid in his assessment on a live game.

Stopac1d 1h ago

Same, i've found my self resubbing every two patches instead of keeping it up. Don't own a home in the game so there's no point in keeping a constant sub going. The post story is getting interesting though.
