Final Fantasy V2.0 - Discussion Thread

Yes to everything! I like the game as it is, but really like the new changes. I will keep playing casually, and will pay, because I want this thing to succeed and become what 2.0 is expected to be.

Why would you consider not playing just because it is going to get better? It is getting better with each patch, so enjoy it now and then enjoy it again later.

As the Op. says im speechless, i always defend FFXIV in most of the stuff, but right now i dont know if ill keep playing or give it a rest for next year, yeah we'll have a new awesome game but then whats the point of playing if theres too much to be changed?

I dont say that is a bad thing i really liked all those things they are adding but right now it feels like pointless to me to keep growing my character, maybe i'll wait and play other stuff and be amazed when they finally release the new game, idk.

You get to keep you character and its data, basicly you get to play as you are on 2.0?

At 3:30am CST, I was ready to go to sleep. I made the mistake of loading Lodestone for a new recipe and saw the Letter from the Producer XX plus the new teaser stuff. I didn't go to sleep until 5am. All I can say is that these changes are mind blowing and 2.0 doesn't even look like the same game!

I'm all for these changes, regardless of concepts borrowed from other games. If a UI change makes the game easier to navigate and play, I'm all for that. Can't wait!

Also, SE had me at Malevolent Moogle! <3 Moogle swords and other weapons! Squeeee!!! Who cares about Ifrit's weapons? I want me a Moogle Sword! XD

this looks so awesome, so epic, and so enjoyable. Yoshi P. you are the man with the 2 year plan! Keep up the great work, it looks incredible.

Well to the 2nd question they mention free download of the new client

"After the new client is completed, new software for the PC version will be distributed online, and can be acquired free of charge." - Lode post

Sweet sauce! Thank you for pointing this out. I thought I read the posts and walked away thinking 2.0 was a mandatory expansion package that had to be paid for ~ which didn't make any sense to me.

I'm extremely impressed about this no questions asked..Except one point and only one.
Why should I pay for more or less testing the new system stage by stage instead of waiting a year and coming back and get all the "WOOW" feeling the game will offer and go step by step from scratch and see everything then spoil it and sit with a lvl50 char.

Having great fun atm ingame tho it just feels as its a all new game coming soon and why spoil it with spoilers all the way.

OOOOOOO Wandering Oden sounds bad ass. Can't wait till he is brought down a few times and just starts walking around 1-shotting people.

The only thing that really worries me is add-ons

[neorei]

that's right all the super 50s have to make a new character again!

...I saw mention of pet class.

Must. Have. Now.

I saw the concept art and my head almost exploded. ''((O_O))''

This game isn't just going to be fixed, it's going to eclipse anything SE has done before!! They've pulled out all the stops for this.

The only thing I want to see more about is new classes and jobs planned, but all in due time I suppose.

Obviously, the FFXIV team has been extremely busy. If monthly subscriptions are what it takes to get this thing up and running, count me in!
