But, yes, thanks Yoshi & Co. I hope they take a well deserved vacation for like a month after ARR releases.... Make it happen Wada! lol

Even if they had the Dev kit for the PS4 the fact that the PS3 is so prevalent means that there will be a market for the game on that system for years to come. It pay to move forward with the PS3 release. The PS4 will take care of itself in due time.

Oh thanks Bayohne! That makes things a little more clear.

Also, curious, in regards to the comment about 'fighting the dev team', I hope to get to see a Bayohne nm in 2.0.

We will not see PS4 in 2013. 2014 at the earliest. PS4 releasing in summer 2013? It hasn't even been officially announced yet, no chance.

Sure, some folks are 'anti-console' out of weird bigotry, sense that 'real gamers use PCs', etc., but the majority of those expressing concerns here I suggest do so out of a worry that XIV, like XI, will be limited due to console restrictions.

Separate servers for consoles and PCs would at least allow for variation based on the console's lack of power, memory, whatever, so as not to neuter the PC version which could handle such features.

In the current post Yoshi-P stated , quite eloquently and forcefully, his reasons for wanting PC and Console gamers as part of a Global community. I am in complete agreement with him. He has also stated several times in the past that ARR will be developed in such a way as to allow maximum usage of both in such a way as to not be a hindrance to the overall game development in the future. I am going to take him at his word and I hope to make new friends from the console world.

I'm glad to hear that the servers will soon go up. I still wanted to record all my cutscenes before losing the chance to never see them again (at least some of them).

Looking through my research, I misread. The final version of the dev kit is summer '13, my bad. And I understand the logic of going ahead with PS3. Lots of people have it. I'm just worried that in a very short time, the ol' "PS3 LIMITATIONS!!" will show itself.

My logic was "Ok, SE could release it for the PS3 now and within a few years reach the PS3's max performance, or they could wait a while longer for PS4 and not have to worry about the 'limitations' for many years."

You can read about it here.

I remember that, but it's over now isn't it?

A little bit I suppose. However, if nothing will be save I doubt many ppl would log on to play it either way. Didn't the play period after the final save ended Nov. 11? ^^;
