i really hope XIV comes out on ps3 soon seems that the updates for the game get better and better
also here's a question how do you guys choose the names for your characters?
It's most definitely not gonna come out for a long time on ps3, especially since the game hasn't done well, but even more disheartening is that SE has had problems developing the game on the ps3's engine/infrastructure. It's way harder to make games on the ps3 than on the x360 (thank God for directx!!!), whereas back in ps2/xbox1 days it was harder to build games on the xbox, but the emotion engine on the ps2 was way easier to work with, that's why arcade ports were stupid easy to create, damn near cut and paste.
FFXIV was to be released for x360, but M$ wanted the game to be integrated in the xbl system and their security methods. SE didn't want the hassle of having to go through one program to get to another program a la PlayOnline viewer to FFXI, so they just wanted a straight-to-game approach. M$ didn't like that, so there was some beef, and then SE basically said "screw you" and decided to stick with ps3. There was still a possibility, but that all got shot down when the reviews came in.
What kills me is that FFXI has a good formula to it, and people thought that SE would just make changees to it to make it better and release a better, faster version of FFXI, which is aight to me since I'd prefer to play a game that can go 60fps rather than 30fps, and is limited thanks to the ps2's limitations. There's so much that XIV could've been, and just isn't.
Oh as far as character names go, I stick with Jinxhand the whole way. It's practically original, and I like consistency. What's strange is on FFXI I get a gangload of party invites from Jp players. Iunno why though...
