Curse 14 Reason to Play FFXIV ARR.... Chocobo Battles?

[yoshikwalla]

So who cares? She made a valid point in her video and y'all trolling and flaming her for no reason.

What a shame.

You forgot the second part of my sentence. I'm glad the game was promoted, despite the fact that it wasn't fact checked. Are people like you just looking for something to take too seriously and criticize?

Promotion is promotion and other sites will inevitably make mistakes. Despite the mistake I'm happy the media is treating the game as a "you should play it" title (or at least a "give it a try" title). I'm also glad to see the unconfirmed chocobo battles quickly corrected by fans in the comments. The part that really had me face-palming and laughing wasn't that she listed a "wrong" reason, but that she repeated the one glaringly wrong reason 4 times lol. "In case you missed our mistake the first time, here it is again. and again. and again."

I'll also say though, there's so many new things in ARR that a lot of sites seem to get one or two things wrong in their articles. Hopefully this'll get better post E3 and as we get closer to release.

Don't blame me, I was not the one who started to "criticize".

Curse takes the Chocobo battle thing straight from the article by Massively (link posted above), and while it's true that there has not been any new info about it, I don't see the point in the flames & trolls above.

Contribute to the article / this thread and correct the info given by Curse and show valid points.

I'll even start when I say in the article (link posted by Robobandit, see above), they say that you can take your Chocobo into dungeons, which I believe has been canceled.

THAT is contribution to the topic.

Ok. I seen the threads that some of yall has posted and im sure many others has as well. But to my understanding its not going to be on the release date. It mite be for the future in the game but like I said its not on the release date. I have no problem with the promotion of FFXIV ARR. Since its not confirm she should have left it out of the video. She should have only stated what is going to be on the game on the release date. By her saying that in the video. Many people going to think that it is going to be in the game come August 27. Which is not right. That's my opinion

You don't see the point? The game isn't going to launch with a "Chocobo Arena," but she says so not once, but four times, as reasons to buy the game. If that isn't fail, I don't know what is. But promotion is promotion, and she gave some good reasons to play the game regardless. I laughed it off and made a joke about it - you're the one who interpreted it as trolling and flaming.

However, you're right (pains me to say) - I should contribute. After giving it some thought, the concept of Chocobo Arenas is actually a very good idea. I would like more possible ways to use Chocobos aside from field companionship and racing at the golden saucer. The more, the merrier, especially when you consider that Chocobos are a staple in gaming culture. Perhaps by winning in arena matches, you could save up chocotokens and buy special sets of barding and special Chocobo skills? Or even better - a fat chocobo limit break? Every real-life year there could be a huge arena event where the first, second, and third-place Chocobos receive visible medals and the owner gets a special title?

The saddest thing is that she KEEPS mentioning it.

I just pointed out that I noticed her sunburn and couldn't stop staring. Calm yo self!

i think they said you will be able to take your chocobo into dungeons later on but right now they want real players to experience it rather than npcs. not sure if they updated on that comment
