Great review.
The game is simply amazing. Naoki Yoshida is easily the best director right now at Square-Enix.
I only have to say two things:
- FF XI is a great game and a great Final Fantasy.
- FF XI Chains of Promathia has one of the best stories in the FF series.
FF XIV: ARR has a different director: Naoki Yoshida. He only joined the team some months after the release of version 1.0.
Another Kindgom Hearts... another story with 80% filler.
Nomura... can you stop writing stories about the disney characters? I only want to know about Sora, Riku, Kairi, Keyblades, Organization XIII, etc...
80% of the game is visiting disney worlds/characters and resolve their problems. I don't care about them.
Simply amazing. This is a real Final Fantasy for me:
- chocobos
- moogles
- summons
- airships
- Cid
- fantastic soundtack (Nobuo Uematsu + Naoshi Mizuta + Masayoshi Soken)
- the story will be great (like FF XI's story)
- amazing world's design (watch the videos " A Tour of Eorzea")
Thank you Naoki Yoshida and his team.

FF XIV: ARR will be so amazing. I can't wait.
Nomura please create a good story this time.
KH's stories are 80% filler. We want to know about the real characters. We want to know about the keyblades. Stop writing stories about disney characters. These are fillers.
I don't like Kingdom Hearts because the story is 80% filler but I'm happy to see the fans happy.
It's nice to see more jrpgs to America/Europe.
A "main" FF to be a hack and slash rpg.... how the president of Square-Enix accept this?
And the story written by Nomura? KH's story is 80% filler.
Nihon Falcom, Tales team, Monolith Soft, Mistwalker... please announce yours rpgs.
I can't wait to play FF XIV: ARR.
I love how they redesign all the maps. FF XIV:ARR world looks amazing.
Some screens(sorry for the bad quality):

It's not only the graphics. The world's design is fantastic.
FF XIV 1.0 has a horrible world with a lot of copy-paste. The new team redesign all the maps.
Look at the screens... amazing job by Square-Enix.
I respect your opinion.
I probably will try Archeage but the game will not have a great future in the West.
I refuse to play Blade & Soul: a mmo published by Ncsoft... I don't need to say more.
I'm a big fan of FF XI. I know a lot of people don't play mmorpgs for the story but Square-Enix cares about the story and this is one of the reasons I liked so much FF XI. Naoki Yoshida already said FF XIV will have a story like FF XI o...
Archeage? Blade & Soul? Pff... another korean MMOs from mediocre developers/publishers:
- real beta only for korean players;
- western players need to wait months for the release;
- western players need to wait months for patches/updates;
- developers don't care about western players.
What I see in FF XIV: A Realm Reborn?
- beta at same time in Europe, America and Japan;
- worldwide release;
- f...
No thx. Square-Enix has more than one team. FF XV will have a different team so you don't have to worry.
And I can't wait for FF XIV: ARR.
Naoki Yoshida is the best director right now at Square-Enix. He is doing a amazing job.
It's sad to see a lot of FF fans didn't play Final Fantasy XI.
According to Tanaka:
"Final Fantasy XI is the most representative title of the Final Fantasy series"
And I agree. It's not my favorite Final Fantasy, but the game has a lot of FF elements. FF XI Chains of Promathia has one of the best stories of the entire series.
So I can't wait for FF XIV: A Realm Reborn. Naoki Yoshida is doing an amazi...
OMG the first video:

DAT IFRIT FIGHT .... So amazing
I really don't understand why people buy these "remastered" hd.
Please don't get me wrong but you can play your original game on pc with emulator: 1080p, anti aliasing, you can save anywhere, etc...

Amazing game and the soundtrack is one of the best Uematsu's work.

Your second point is not true.
FF XIV was the only eastern mmorpg with a worldwide release. All content until now was released in Japan, America and Europe at same time.
Don't compare Square-Enix with the other crap publishers that need months to bring content to America and Europe.
