Windows 8 uses about 30% less system resources than Windows 7. I know a lot of people aren't that into the metro interface, but it is a lot faster than the last version in almost every way......

They aren't using crystal tools anymore. They are using a crystal/luminous hybrid game engine for Versus XIII... on top of that there is the reused footage, and the strangely choppy logo animation at...

It can be a *magic meteor* that creates instead of destroying (or something like that).

So my prediction is...

Class -> Job
Scouter -> Thief
Arcanist -> Time Mage
Beastmaster -> Summoner

Scumbag FFXIV player:
Complains not enough Final Fantasy feel
Wants Moogle items to be serious

I don't think some people know what the FF feel even is. A huge part of it is it's lightheartedness.

I was not discounting Yoshi-P's contribution. But what really has me so excited about the future of the game is that it isn't just Yoshi-P. They have assembled what amounts to a game dev super team....

It isn't Yoshi-P who did the new UI. It is the guy they brought on with him last year. The same guy who did the FFXII UI.

I have optimus and it works with the latest drivers and aero.

I am pretty sure the jump height is the same for all races. It is just that since the lala is smaller he seemed to be jumping more. If they made his jump proportionate to his body then he would be at...

Umm. They are using a new graphics engine that is better optimized and future proof. They are NOT changing the art direction of the game. All the same artists are still working on it. Zenaku, your...

Actually a few months ago they said that they would post a list of the class changes around the time 1.19 went live so they could get our feedback for them in 1.20. I hope they still plan to do that....

They have said that with 2.0 they will have two separate UIs. One for keyboard and one for gamepad. Both UIs will also be heavily customize-able with addons and such. I don't think you have much to...

In all likelihood there is not Ishgard. They probably never got around to making the map for it before they switched over work to 2.0.

Not sure if someone has mentioned this or not, but I think they way they plan to split up servers will make a lot of sense. By having both language specific servers along with global servers I think...

This would be amazing. It would actually explain a lot of new players, and allow for an amount of time to elapse between the seventh umbral era and whenever 2.0 takes place.

From a technical standpoint it is going to be an entire new game, running on entirely new server software and using an entirely new client. But from a player's "game" standpoint, it will still be...

Who told you they were scrapped? In the 2.0 documents they mention "new classes and jobs" being released before 2.0.

I am not going to bother reading all the ridiculous things people have posted, but what some choose to interpret as PS3 limitations has led to the biggest game improvement that is happening. The new...

Looking through the new "in development" screenshots of new areas, one of the things I noticed was how prominently Moogles were featured. I have a feeling that the Seventh Umbral Era will bring them...

With the head of the Luminous engine joining the development team as part of the restructuring a year ago, and in the light of Versus FFXIII using a modified Crystal/Luminous engine. I am willing to...

Wow. 2.0 looks like the most amazing online game I have ever seen. They are planning every major overhaul asked of them multiple times over. But... I have a feeling I probably won't be playing this...

Was I the only one who interpreted the entire OP as a series of innuendos?

They said in the next update, 1.19a or 1.20 they will make it so only the same species link.

Every time a new patch comes out the game feels faster and seems to run smoother. I think it has more to do with the server reset they do than it does with the graphics engine. After a few days/weeks...
