Will you play FF XIV Mobile?

No, !@#$ No!

I dont play mobile games

Absolutely not.

I already bought a mobile phone which can support FF XIV and Destiny Rising. Both being F2P and having separated UI and content makes it very interesting for me. Also I've seen they put savage fights in the mobile version so Im even more curious. Being able to grind starting from scratch in a new mmorpg environment is also exciting. Seeing what Mr.Happy says about the game, aparently its not super predatory so that's nice.

From reading translated tooltips job design is honestly about the same, if not a bit more interesting in the mobile version lol. I'd rather play that than every job having 30 buttons with no interesting effects or interplay.

I think mobile FFXIV caters more to people who would want to try it but are unable to play on PC, because I don't think there is enough incentive for people to switch from PC to mobile port at this moment.

I don’t understand why people would want to play FFXIV on a phone screen. Will you even see anything? I tried to minimize my HUD as much as possible and still 30% of my computer screen is taken by stuff I need to monitor or have at hand. Buffs and debuffs for example.

Why are the devs putting resources in a mobile version when theres so many things to fix in the pc game? Now they are gonna have to maintain both versions and they will have new excuses to slack.

Also I can’t stand the concept of mobile-exclusive items or hairstyles…

I'm pretty sure it's a completely separate company doing the mobile version that doesn't in any way, shape, or form "take away from" the devs working on the main pc version.

Still hope they keep crunking on the main game with better systems. Imagine being crapped on by a phone version of your own MMO.

I'm not really interested in it. Might try it since I'll have my new phone then but doubt I'll play much. I can't imagine it will be comfortable trying to play on a phone screen.
