Might as well have called it FFXI-2. I still don't understand the whole "let's announce FFXIV before FFXIII has even gone gold" mentality, though... Sure, it *technically* won't be a part of the main series - like FFXI - but all these Final Fantasy MMORPGs need to have their own franchise, rather than taking up space in the central series.
This is crazy. Many people like myself just want XIII to hurry up and get released. This announcement make me feel as if they aren't putting their 100% effort into the one game at the moment, when they should be. I mean I've read alot about the realease status of XIII, and I heard some very good news, and how it seemed it would get released faster than expected. That's why I find the announcement of XIV to be such a shock.
this is annoying it may come to the fact were final fantasy 13 and 14 are released on the same day because according to ign they are both being released in 2010. but i think effort has been put i im positive the delays we're because they decided to make it on xbox 360 at the last minute but at the same time im sure the japanese version will have more in it beacause its not on xbox 360 UNLESS the xbox versions are multi disk.
Two entirely different development teams. The team that has developed and supported FFXI for these past 7 years is the team that is behind FFXIV. This is a different team than the one working on FFXIII.
So when is XIII supposed to come out? That's when I'm buying my PS3, until than it will sit in the store. Regards,
its coming out 2010 according to ign i'ld look up an exact time if i were you because im not sure exactly when.
FFXIII has already been dubbed 'n subbed by the looks of the battle trailer. I'm quite looking forward to it, but I'm much more intrested in VERSUS, to be honest. I haven't seen anything about the other one, on the PSP? It just seems like it's Organization 13...again.
Hopefully FFXVI wouldn't become another FFXI. :-[ They shall hurry up with FFXIII. It feels like I'm waiting a whole century.
XIV is another crappy MMORPG that most likely wont fit the series. They're just using the name to sell it, like all the R4 clones do.
I've played FFXI for almost 5 years now. It does fit into the FF Series. All the features are there, including a huge storyline. Unlike almost every MMO that exists, FFXI has a great storyline based around the Crystals (and other things). I'd expect that FFXIV will have a similar storyline depth. Of course, exploring the storyline is entirely optional and many people may not do it in favor of just camping monsters for good drops. (Which is a waste of the game if you ask me). Blowing it off as something just trying to cash in on the Final Fantasy name is just ignorant
I find it odd that they would announce this at this time. And of course, Square Enix has grown to be large enough to have at least 2 development teams
They have at least 500 people working in development teams (I think that's about right), so I'd laugh if they only had one development team.
im not going to give my opinion on it like most people, its crap and stuff like that, i will pass my judgements when the game is released and i have played it, also a reminder for PS3 users FF7 on EU and US Store today. Add me on PS3 - dutton
One of Playonline.com's (the backbone of FFXI) premier site has an excellent write up about FFXIV today from an interview. Here's the link: http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/story.html?story=18309 I am looking forward to FFXIV, it will be nice to have an updated FF MMORPG.
Kind of strange... I didn't think PlayOnline was being used for FFXIV... ??? Anyway! I'm hoping they introduce a more robust Job system... Something similar to FFTA2 would be nice (like Humes only having Soldier and White Mage starting classes, that open up extra classes depending on their skill with the two starting ones), in terms of having Job Trees and stuff.
