Don't matter how beautiful the game is if they gameplay is crap, which is part of the reason 1.0 failed.

The good ol days.
At least back then you weren't told to stop playing and got locked out of content. -
11-10-2014, 08:32 AMDuelleBack in what some of the people here misguidedly call the "good ol' days", it was possible for BLMs with overmelded equipment to entirely bypass the second phase of Garuda by having 8 BLMs kill her before the phase transition. Yoshida admitted and recognized this oversight and asked people to not stack BLMs and spam Thunder on her to kill her before the phase transition while the devs worked out a solution. The players ignored Yoshida.Quote:

Well it was a fight entirely designed and implemented by the post Yoshida team after all.

11-10-2014, 09:11 AMMilesSaintboroguhEven on PC, most people couldn't run the game because the graphical (and maybe CPU) demands were too high for the mainstream PC gamer, which would have shut out a ton of people wanting to play the game. I don't expect the graphics to ever get back to the old levels unless there's massive work and optimization going on.Quote:
