you may be right, but FF7 is steampunk. FFXIV seems more like FFIX to me, as for the scenario.
not fully.. because you also have magiteks. but the shinra mansion was part of the mainstory. i cant imagine succubus to fit in the ffxiv storyline.

but well lets end this ;) i am going to test it out so or so..

Those screenshots look awesome, a bit later than they predicted but eh, rather them take their time and get it sorted ^^

Heres hoping that a beta invite pops up before the 25th now, I've been stalking my inbox for the last few days, time to take it to the next level of leaving it visible at all times :p

Let the mental preparation begin.

I was also thinking the same thing (XIII-2 OST) about the giant golem.

I hope it comes soon, I just want to make sure I am completely prepared for this. Also wondering when on the 25th it starts, I would assume evening time? Or earlier?

EDIT: I got a newsletter today, so kind of a relief that is e-mail is correct. :P

However, people are saying " Live Letter= Beta date release" when in fact it's coming in the Normal letter. If they wanted to release it at the live letter they would have said " Live letter" and not just letter.

I think I was right Starlord~

Yes you were right "blindly" but in the end you were right. When you said it it was a "Guess", now it's a "fact". But I did say on Numerous occasions that we would get a "date" in the Next letter (Not Live letter that a lot of people got into their heads for some reason).

You never had to.

You could have waited for the timely newsletter in your inbox.... or get the update on the twitter feed.

I'm a bit confused though... do Legacy players need to wait for a beta key email or is our account automatically activated for beta? I want to know so I don't break my refresh button.

I believe your account gets flagged as Being a Beta Tester at the same time you receive your e-mail. That's just a guess though considering I wasn't in Alpha.

Common sense just dictated the 25th or thereafter. Once the Live letter date was picked it pretty much sealed the 25th.

That gives you one more week of Fire Emblem. You should be happy it's a good game, although i get a headache looking at a 3ds longer then 30 minutes.

Thankfully I don;t play in 3D (because it hurts my eyes or that I'm just not use to the whole 3Dness).

The date could have flown either way, He could have just had a live letter with us enjoying it (like he did in the Alpha Version). This time is different apparently lol, which is fine not a big deal it's only 10 days away and 10 days of Getting my best team possible for Fire Emblem to put on streetpass to see if anyone can beat it :D.

Benchmark comes before Beta in 9 days or less. So you have time to ponder upon which of those 9 days will hold the Benchmark :P.

Again, hardly call that a delay. and if your use your head, You actually "need" the Benchmark, to see if you can "actually" run the game -.-.

Hopefully the FATE bosses will be dynamic and offer challenge. If they use that as a leveling route though it's probably just going to be tank and spank. Which imo is a waste of time.
