@Berserk8989: The PS4 performs fairly well as far as FFXIV is concerned. We might start to see a gap forming with them dropping PS3 support so they can push the envelop harder though. I think them focusing purely on performance with the Pro patch is the right move. I can tell you, 4K on the PC version is nothing special at all. FFXIV is a pretty game, but MMOs don't exactly showcase cutting edge graphics for obvious reasons.
@keichimorisato9: That stuff was supposedly lifted a couple years ago to start talks again, but I guess nothing has come of it. We probably won't see anything for a while because all three fanfests just passed with no mention of it and the team is focused on cleaning up the expansion for launch.
@ThatGreyPenguin: It's more of an issue of performance than compatibility. FFXIV runs on instanced content, and the community outright shuns slower performing platforms. When they say "boxed off" they are referring to a system being excluded by the player base and not being able to participate. It's really the dark corner of gamer entitlement. They don't want to play with someone because their system takes 20 more seconds to load the content.
Del Toro needs to let it go. Take a page from the man you're so eager to work with and focus on the project and not the train wreck that would have been.
@Wraith3: The Empire is good at design flaws. A ship of that size going down because its main bridge is taken out is pretty silly. It would have been one thing if the main power source was taken out, but it was the bridge, of all things.
@catsimboy: Executor was the name of the first of its class, and was also adopted as its class name as well. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Executor-class_Star_Dreadnought
