so more patches can be delayed? no thanks we already had delays due to ps4 and and china releases.

Yea but a billion people live in china so I mean kinda worth from a business perspective.


Anyroad, no one on XB1 gives a rat's about FFXIV. How do I know? Cause they'd at least have PS3 or PS4 haha. Just wouldn't be worth the dev time.

Sorry to say but we already have the PS3 holding back what the developers are capable of when making content for the game. They're already planning to cut off the PS3 version some time after the 1st expansion. We don't need the xbone holding the game back with its hardware being inferior to the PS4.

PS3 is struggling, WiiU will be in the same position or worse. I know SE is considering releasing the game on XBONE and I believe it could handle it, but I don't feel it should go to lolwiiu or any of the last gen consoles.

As far as I'm concerned anyone who was foolish enough to throw their money at Microsoft after last year's E3 conference deserves what they get. I also read that since Microsoft servers would have the best separate from the rest of the servers.

That said I'm all for it being on the Wii-U if they want to play fair with the rest of us unlike Micro$oft.

FFXI on the 360 was an exception though rather than the rule - MS allowed it to be ported because they were trying to increase the sales of the 360 in Japan and needed a high-profile Japanese game to woo players, and because FFXI was already a PC title, it would have been relatively simple to bring it to the 360.

X-Box One sale less than PS4 (Increase sales - Check!)
X-Box One is built exactly like a PC (PC title easy to bring -Check!)

And, by the way, X-Box 360 was built like a PowerPC, not a PC (Like PS3 and Wii) so porting FFXI may have been harder than porting FFXIV now. In fact, porting FFXIV on XB1 is technically easier that doing it for the PS3

FFXIV could be the exception for X-Box One.

The PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and Wii U are all PowerPC-based. That first statement is off.

But yes, an Xbox One port would be much easier to maintain than a PS3 port, as much of the code could probably be shared with the PS4 version. Both consoles have pretty similar hardware, and have identical architecture in terms of CPU and GPU. (They do have differences, but nothing really that extreme. Both are pretty much your regular x86 PCs)

I wouldn't be surprised if Square-Enix had a working Xbox One port, but simply can't release it because of licensing agreements.

Who says it has to be in first person mode?
