When they stop charging $15 a month fees to play it and offer the game as a FREE download.
I'm not paying fees to play that game. FF XI was enough.

As bad as FFXIV was, ARR is much better.
Why is so different. What makes it much better? SE should have release video explaining improvements or changes.[QUOTE="lundy86_4"][QUOTE="blackace"]

It's impressive how much effort they put into the re-release.It's basically a completely different game. Redone, remade from the ground up.

TBH, I was shocked. Bought the FFXIV CE on PC, and dropped it... I decided to wait, upon hearing about ARR, until it released fully.
My roommate and I actually have been playing this on PS3, the controls are really fluid and I love it. Definitely will be playing this game a lot.
MMO are not for me. I played the beta and didn't even spend 1 hour on it. I'll just wait for final fantasy XV
Maybe I will play if they release on ps4 next year. Mr-Kutaragi
It has been confirmed that players will have free upgrade to ps4 version (if you have ps3) as well.
As for me, i'm kinda bummed you don't have a free pc copy if you buy for ps3... also the fact that the psn version is still suspended.

hmm. SE going all out it seems. Maybe I will buy, but do not like subscription MMO usually, especially when they often drop subscription later. It does ensure healthy community however, because paying member are more likely to play regularly.[QUOTE="Sweenix"]

I was surprised at the controls for the PS3... Pretty damn intuitive.
Me too, I've never played an mmo on a console before and was concerned about the controls. I definitely like how they implemented them for the controller. I definitely prefer it more to keyboard and mouse, I've always hated using that.

I actually used my 360 controller on the original, and this is much better. Love it.
now how could anyone say mmo's can't work with a controller? if this game with a gigantic hotkeys amount can works well with a controller, any mmo's can. The difference is that these devs actually put effort into it, not like others.My roommate and I actually have been playing this on PS3, the controls are really fluid and I love it.

My problem is that the game has latency issues and that can make it very difficulty for all the wrong reasons.
When some bosses are about to attack you with see a red area on the ground which will alert you to the danger zone and if you are in it then you will get hit.
There have been times when I was clearly away from that danger zone for 4-5 seconds and I was still hit.
Also in the end game dungeons it is very hard to get a party of competant players.....in fact I tried Garuda Primal Hard 13 times and never beat it once because the players did not know the bosses mechanics and could not learn from their mistakes.....
I think people should watch videos of the end game dungeons and bosses so they will understand the tactics.
And it seems voice chat is a must for some of the later dungeons so it would be nice if SE implemented a built in voice chat feature that can be used in parties.
It's really annoying spending over an hour in a dungeon and then failing because your group is so bad.
Also SE should make it so the game freezes until everyone is out of a cutscene because there are certain dungeons where if you finish the cutscene before someone else the battle will start and you will be attacked by hard hitting mobs and if your tank and healer is still in the cutscene you will be wiped out.

People who complain about $15 are hypocrites, nothing more. The funny thing is ARR is actually $12.99 a month not $15 unless you want a crap load of characters.
$15 month to play it? Pass. Heil68
It's actually $12.99 lol :P
And you get free in-game stuff every month, like a minion.

Exactly, now hopefully The Elder Scrolls Online follows suit. Would love to play that on PS4.
paid subscription means i will never get to play this. Make it f2p you squeeny douches!campzor
Their servers would be horrible if it was f2p, plus it would be riddled with microtransactions. The first couple days of launch most of the rp servers were locked out, too much traffic. Luckily now they increased the size of most of them and it's flowing smoothly. The connection is really good on PS3, and probably even better on PC. $12.99 a month is totally justified in my book.
Hoping it hits a Free to play model once the ps4 release rolls around. I played FFXI a ton.

Oh wow haha. Well, they made it so anyone can get the best equip now. Quite easily, actually. Some of the best equip is obtainable by doing an instance where you literally kill some fodder mobs, 40-60 in 30-40 minutes....So easy.I really want Angry Joe to review this.

eh angry joe. Though hes better then that spoony guy.
