Hmmm that's weird, I remember paying $80x2 for 2xCE versions and then $240 for a new graphics card just for this game and $360 for my wifes new monitor just so she can play this game in larger screen... I don't remember it being "FREE". They had to make the 'SERVICE' free because the first team screwed up (or got screwed by SE admins who only looks at money, and release dates) Sorry but had to say this, hate when people think we should be happy that we get to play this game for FREE now.Quote:

just to do the math, without the 1 free month you get from the purchase you would have payed 104 bucks till now or in your case 208 bucks, to keep ther severs up and running costs money too, development isnt free as well, se is paying all that out of their pocket. you think that the price of the box helped them? it was just a drop in the ocean. 80 bucks isnt that much of a deal either, most of the "blockbuster" games that come out cost that much and some are only 4 to 6 hours long, i think if you even tried to give 14 a fair chance playing wise you got your moneys worth of playtime.
plus after the open beta it was pretty obvious that things arent going so well, so stop blameing others for your purchase decisions. -
06-23-2011, 03:34 PMReinheart:) I'll keep my mouth shut, knew this was going to happen LOL but I don't care really had to say it. At least with the other games including FF I got at least to play a fully working game that was advertised (although some just show the best CS in advertisement and thats the only best scenes you get from the game lol)Quote:

Better monitor, can't argue much on that she loves it so can use for other stuff sure. 2xCE disks I'll just say it may be worth something as a good memory like I said on another thread. This game can either turn into the worste FF ever in all FF series out now, OR it can turn around and become oen of the best MMO in top3 of this year, or whatever year. -
06-23-2011, 03:42 PMMireilleAnd how many hours have you played? Seriously you missed the point. The game went back to the drawing board, and we get to keep playing while they redesign it. They could have shut the game down except for a single server and some play testers, but instead you have the option to keep playing FOR FREE until its fixed. If this game works out and has the same sort of end game gear as XI did the players who kept at this through the repairs will probably be the first ones with whatever the XIV version of stage 5 relic weapons are.Quote:

You could have returned it for another MMO for use on that new PC.
Edit: Dropped a line for its rudeness XD. -

^ either way i spent 75$ on a CE and i feel like i havent gotten much worth of it. Just because its free does not mean we "saved money" because i would have never payed a monthly fee to play this garbage in the first place, nor would 90% of the people who bought it.
So no, i havent gotten my moneys worth. Unless they make this game good and soon, and we get some free time for basically paying to be their beta testers, then il feel ripped off. -

Love the Wood-Wailer looking armor! None of the other leather armors have shoulder pads and in my opinion looked pretty dumb XD.

On the same Haiku Poem thread someone posted after seeing YoshiP being on the forums posting posted a Haiku saying it's starting to get boring doing same stuff, he responded to that one so here goes.
Suguha's response which I also agreeQuote:
