Gamespot Artcle 8/15/12

*Sorry if this has already been posted couldn't find anything.

Not a big poster on the forums but I am awaiting every new piece of info regrading 2.0 like many of you. Came across this article this morning. Definitely a good read.

"Convincing people to once again place their faith in Square Enix might be too much ask. But from what I've seen today, Final Fantasy XIV: A Real Reborn is certainly well on its way to doing so." This gets me excited!

Probably Battle Regimen.

Ohhhhhhh Yeah!! Limit Break BABY!!!! Woot!

Mark Walton is my favorite Gamespot guy. He is a big Final Fantasy nerd like the rest of us :)

Wow. Gamespot ignored every other FFXIV news since....2011. I consider this a good sign.

Limit...

Br

Eak...


Fuuuuuuuuuu....

If this limit break system is started by the leader in which he orders a party member to use a ability and the game makes them do it I quit!

But kidding aside, I wonder what it does~ Lots of fan service in this that I am in love with.

Good to see some bigger sites speaking well of what they've seen. Can't stand the comments section though lol. "If it's not F2P I'm not playing it, don't care how good it is!"

I felt this way once. Then I played FFXI for 7-8 years.

Lol, if only people see that free isn't always a "good thing" when I think of free.. I think that someone threw away a chair to the side of the curb and someone picked it up "it looks good on the outside. But the inside could have maggots and bugs >.<.

However there are times people throw away stuff that actually "Works" and in good condition and you have no idea why they would toss this aside. F2P is always 50/50 can be good.. can be bad.

FFXIV was F2P for a year. Where were they?

Only kids and manchildren say that because mommy doesn't want to give them $15 a month for a game. So meh to them.

"The visuals have been greatly improved."

I certainly don't see it. I mean the environments look great but in every one of these screenshots there's a grainy look and the ground textures look absolutely terrible. Hopefully that's either the picture, low resolution, or something else because....the ground looks soooo bad.

i wonder if this here shows a limit break.. although he is solo. and yoshida stated limit breaks to be for parties.

I've been looking through a lot of these, and I actually think the resolution is the reason.

I'm looking forward to see some 1920x1080 HD screenshots tbh.

Dragon fire dive?

It's Dragonfire Drive. If you zoom in you can see it says that.

Yay :D limit break sounds so much better then battle regimen :o

yeah this comign from gamespot is a good thing, they were so harsh on FFXIV. So this guy, who once said how it destroyed the name and was harsh (read his old one) seems to think it is going to make gamers happy. I couldn't make it to germany as planned jsut wasn't cost efficient this time (i wanted to also visit Kauserlauturn just no time, want to go to my old stomping grounds in Otterbach.
