So..to those of you saying the PS3 WAS NOT going to limit this game.

In FFXI they've deleted A lot of game terms, names, and certain items because there's no longer room on the PS2. That means my PC FFXI version can't use them as well.

Except the dev team on ffxi explicitly wanted to keep both versions the same, whereas the dev team for 14 have stated several times in the past they don't care about adding things to the pc version that the ps3 version won't have.


people need to stop comparing the two as the team's goals for the two are completely different.

I guess when my x4 25 Bags become one 100 bag that can auto-sort, I'll believe this.

Most recent update is that the Add-ons are now pushed back 6 months instead of the PS4 release, so we can look forward to it in about a years time..

This makes no sense. ffxi had this so it's not like they changed it to save space.

Prove that they specifically said multiple bags were required for the ps3 limited memory, otherwise you are just making stuff up.

Actually it was to save space, it was because of the PS3's limited resolution that we are limited to a 4x25 bag system to fit within a certain maximum window size. Icons over text was simply to save memory since the PS3 is memory starved.

Because clearly no PC could ever suffer these kinds of limitations, amirite?

Realistically? Outside of a bad memory leak... no.

The poster I quoted was talking about 1 bag vs multiple, you can still do this with scrolling the way ffxi did. That proves nothing.

They also went with a bag system because it's what certain generic MMORPGs uses since "list style" is outdated.

My only real concern is that they'll hold up releasing PC content while they make it work (when possible) for PS3. If PS3 version is gonna hold up content releases then let the ps3 version catch up later.


I don't really care if SE supports PS3 or not so long as it doesn't affect PC.
