    adieu FFXIV people

    I now bid adieu to all you ffxiv players that are leaving to go beta test, how does everyone think that's going to impact the FFXI community?

    Judging by the initial reports, the beta seems worse than the alpha. At this rate it won't be long until they're back, where they'll get disappointed as well, because SE will take even more personnel away to work on A Realm Reloaded.

    Uh, why would anyone leave for a BETA test? It's possible to play two games. Shocking, I know.

    I think ultimately FFXIV, when it's actually released, will benefit FFXI in the long run, once it fails and people start migrating back to FFXI, including people who have never played it before.

    Some people seem to think the beta is an 'early access' code for FFXIV.

    It's not. It's buggy; they are going to keep rolling back, deleting characters and performing maintenance. Sure, there might be the small window of opportunity to try a few quests - but anyone "leaving" to play FFXIV is going to be sorely disappointed; and likely the type of person who will proclaim the game is crap based on their experience in the beta.

    Not really. Not when both are heavily involved MMO's.

    That's how beta testers are paid, instead of with actual money.

    Though I find it funny this is coming from someone who has access to the XI test servers.

    likely the type of person who will proclaim the game is crap based on their experience in the beta.
    I dunno, the XIV beta testers saying that were eerily prescient...

    Nothing in the above post is intended to disparage Square Enix or FINAL FANTASY XI, or to criticize Square Enix staff; such behavior would be a violation of the FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement. Any such violations of the FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement should be reported to Square Enix immediately, by using the "Report Post" icon in the bottom-left of forum posts.

    The difference there is, XI has a 'test server' for new 'features'. That's a million miles from an unreleased game in 'beta' testing its core foundation.

    Plus, let's be honest, you don't need access to the test server to know what direction this game is heading in :-P
