*Raises Hand* Umm .. Sorry to interrupt as everyone is obviously enjoying the battle, but considering SE is attempting the never before accomplished feat of rebooting an mmo that was never taken offline. Wouldn't a small demo be worth more than a whole Advent Children worth of CGI? As I said earlier, nobody is questioning the CGI (Except maybe the lack) of FFXIV. They are questioning the gameplay and can FFXIV deliver on the promises it's been making for the last 2 years.
I would think people who have been playing this game would understand that more than anyone. As anyone who watched the KARA demo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0KTUysrwgQ will tell you, if something is truly awesome then it will make news on its own.
