    He said that 2.0's engine was complete as of last month and that they are at the step of porting code from the old engine to the new one. I don't know anything about programing but how long does that give them to come up with a least 1 playable area or some in-game material to show in a trailer?

    How can they make all brand new maps with Content to put in them by October 2012 from the time they started 2.0 which was 1.5 years ago? How can they do all that along side FFXIV 1.xx? I'm sure they have at least 1 playble map with content in it by now.

    He said he supposedly did research on game design so he should have known the answer to his question. It's already on the shop floor, therefore they can easily put out a playable E3 demo if they so chose, considering MMO E3 demos tend to only be segments regardless.

    Exactly, they have the choice weather or not they want to put a Playable demo in E3 or not. They are at a point where they can put one together for E3, or they can choose weather or not its worth having one at E3.

    but at this point and SE situation with FFXIV.. this is there last chance.. all sources really do point to them having one at E3.

    That's just how I feel.. and the most logical way they should do it.
