Nice to see such a positive response to it's showing.

That's great! ^^

It's nice to see that positive feedback.

That is very good to hear! Great job Yoshi-P and the development team! You may just turn this game around! :D

Nice to hear :) It should also win "Most improved game of 2012"

Awesome. Is there any comprehensive source of the coverage? I've missed most of it, but I need to catch up!

YAHOOO!!! KEEP IT UP YOSHI-P YOU AND TEAM DESERVE THIS, Your moment to shine!! :D

Yay. nice to hear this! I hope in more reward!

The funny/sad part is that even though they've nominated it for Best PC Game and obviously have interest in ARR, there's no article on their site about FFXIV at Gamescom. I'm guessing that's because they have no media from the event to post.

ok thats good but what other pc games were there? Cause if all the other games there were terrible its cause of lack of options that 14 won lol.

Because its still being written up probably, Nova Crystallis has and Interview incoming, and the Short Video of the Better Quality of the gameplay I posted on a new Thread, that person said they did interviews as well. Gamescom just started give it a day or 2 stuff wil probably pop up, if not that that's kinda weird. ( 2 Japanese interviews have been conducted already 4gamer and game watch).

Wow, I did not know this. But this really puts a smile on my face. A first step for S-E and FFXIV.

This is off topic, but your sig seems like its ridiculing that scene. Mixed emotions aren't weird. He's sort of like "omg what is that--AWESOME--wait, this is serious!" Like maybe he just saw some huge challenge appear and first was surprised, then eager to take it on, but thought he needed to take it more seriously.

I am pretty sure that there were more PC games other than FFXIV. PC gaming has gotten much more popularity than console gaming over the past few years. Though you may be right about there not being much choice.
