[SunTzuuu]

Excuse me ? My hp didnt go up,my hp went down with 50%..dunno what you're on.

[Xmbei]

My pugs HP went up that was the first thing I noticed, then secondly noticed the HUGE stat boost I had prior to 1.19, all my stats above 180.... when before I had no where near that...

"Grand Companies" and "Ifrit" are in the article though. just saying.

I type grand company, not companies lol... yeah ifrit in the article,my mistake, but they didnt describe the encounter itself.. point is, how can you said impression,when you definitely dont experience the thing?

analogy
A : My impression of the new car is: it is fast and comfortable but the fuel wont last long..
B: So you already ride it?
A: no, but thats what the brochure said and other people saying..

I doubt many reviewers will have much end game experience in FFXIV. That is something SE is going to have figure out a way to overcome before PS3 release because times are hard and I doubt to many people will commit $50+ up front and 13+ per month to the game without doing any research on it. If it was a brand new title maybe but by the time its released on PS3 it will most likely be atleast a year and a half old game.

ya i agree don't like the coverage, but at least he made the impression it is finally getting better, unlike previous attempts of, "oh look 3 days till a big patch game still no improvement".... why even write it? lol but ya wish he took the time to try everything not from hearsay.

I think it is a fair review to be honest. We have grown to love it, in spite of it's problems, and it's difficult for those of us that play to be objective, without being biast, and in this case, I think the review hits the right notes, if a little negatively put at times.

[Lucinda_Lecore]

There are some points in that review i do agree with. Infact, we have all stated many times that some of those points do need addressing.

My main concern about the article is that (despite bringig up a few valid points) there was alot of good things the writer missed. I cannot help but look at the writting style of that article and feel the writer felt jaded about the game from the get go.

they still talking about guildleves? really? didnt highlight how awesome the ifrit encounter? and how hard it be? didnt talk about materia?

what an objective review...

They are still stuck R20, how can they even try that? (they only have 2-3 hours per game to test for review)

MMORPG.com The site hat posts a pre-1.18 review 2 days before 1.19 and says it still contains "much relevant information about the current state of the game"

[TessaJalloh]

obviously this 'writer' didn't actually play any of the new content at all, what with his old screenshots (last one came all the way from BETA), his glossing over the major new features in a hurried way, and then his insistance on commenting about guildleves and behests (only leves i've done for months has been local, and now company leves which are much more fun than battlecraft).

Not a very good opinion piece. Even if i did agree somewhat with his opening paragraph.
