FF11 was great. 14 simply didn't evolve.New patch that will fix the game wont come out until 2013
and its a console MMO which = instant fail

For all we know it could be a great game once it's fixed, but I'm of the mindset that if a developer screws up THAT badly, you don't give them another shot. Kind of like how I feel about the APB Reboot.
i know you guys want to rag on console mmos and all but everquest on ps2 was a blast to play.
sure it was primitive but can you imagine what it was like to play an mmo in which the community did not think the point was to grief everyone around them?
crazy stuff right? people working together?
Yeah there have been quite a few good console mmos.i know you guys want to rag on console mmos and all but everquest on ps2 was a blast to play.

[QUOTE="Stevo_the_gamer"]My thoughts can be summed up quite nicely by... "lol."Lto_thaGIndeed. Also...Is there a full version of your sig?Yes, right here.
Yeah this game is not going to be fully functional for at least another year. Saying that, 2.0 patch looks like it's going to improve this game a lot.
just admit it was a failure and make it F2P....don't even bother with the console version. the genre belongs on PC anyways.ChikaraShrefWe would be saying that about FPS's 15 years ago too. I'd rather the industry try to evolve than sit back and chuckle with SW.

They are slowly bringing it back to life.

I'd rather the industry try to evolve than sit back and chuckle with SW. i'm all for having games available for as many systems, but for some games its just not worth the effort. maybe if they would've released it alongside the PC version, but for this its too little too late.

It only takes one or two great examples for a mini-revolution to take place. Look at the quality/controls of console FPS's before the original Halo, look at online gaming on console before XBL gained mass popularity to name but some :P
Just need devs to take that risk and prove to others that it is possible and worthwhile.

console MMO's would not work, they would be dumbed down so bad it would make WoW look hardcore
FPS's on consoles were allready dumbed down, FPS genre sucks now thanks to consoles
I think they jynx'd themselves pre-release when they said it'll rival World of Warcraft. Now no one cares about it. Mystic-G
yeah japan just doesnt know anything about the PC market
the game flopped because it was bad and since its an MMO, they cant pull the piracy scapegoat card like usual
"why didnt they buy our broken console port for $60? must be pirates!"

Why does Square believe Final Fantasy XIV deserves this time and money?vashkey
Yeah especially since MMOS are heading towards the F2P market.
