I wasn't going to do MMORPG again, but I'll probably at least do it for 2 months just to explore the newness of it. Hope there's like a trial, but I'd still have to buy the disk. Maybe SE learned a few things with salvage, assault, etc and take the camping out of it.

Seriously, though, this looks promising to me. My main gripe with FFXI is that I ran out of things to do. However I love the combat system, the look, jobs, and their great way of adding good storylines to the game. SE has always been great with combat systems imo, and that's a defining point for an MMO. For the first time in ages, I'm actually looking forward to being a level 1 nub and exploring a new online world.

The guy says "PS3 will be the only console...."

which means

No to Xbox360, yes to PC, since PC isnt a console.

I hope the system is nothing like ffxi's. Faster moving characters, more fluid animation, less zoning, better armor system, less sidegrades, redone drop system, better class upgrades per level not traits+spells+ja etc. I'll be watching it but I want this to be a reimagined ff mmorpg, not a graphics update to break away from the old code of ffxi. Less depending on large groups, more fun solo and small groups, better endgame.

Wanderers? Maybe this is a alternate dimension, or past? What if it's like far east (tenzen), and the galka island + more? It's still in Vana'diel

Also, anyone who didn't think Rapture was FF14 is literally retarded. :(

They said they wouldn't call it a ff number. It was believed to be given it's own name. Hence Rapture.
