Who is really optimistic about this game?

[weeble]

while i don't really agree with op i will say this game still has me hoping for 2.0, i think this game can still be great, with it's great story line and exp'ing. and all the new things they will add by 2.0 all will be great. even though i know nothing more about it i have a pitched tent for crystal towers that will not go away till i learn more of it. but that is cause ffxi paints my pictures for me and i'm hoping it will be as great as any of the full linkshell large pve endgames it had.

but my hopes can easily be vanquished in a second at 2.0. lots of things need to be fixed. and on top of those lets hope the most important one is fixable, the games community and population. you can fix everything and still game can suck if no one to play with. but i have hopes that all will come back just as i will and end up staying. but we will have to just see if SE fixes what needs to be fixed in the right directions.

as for swtor, though i'm enjoying playing it very much. but i'm already spacebar'ing threw the voice dialogues rather then watching them or reading them. don't get me wrong i would rather have voice on my quests but it's something about mmo's that i just want to keep moving lot faster then in offline games where i'd read and watch everything and take my time or maybe it's cause i'm not a star wars fan. (not like they are full movie animations, it's usually 2npc's with some movements ...though swtor has done it the best i've seen in any game, would of loved this for ffxiv) best thing for me in this game is population of players and never ending line of quests and content to play. so much that you start to level past some of then b4 doing them unless you just stop and go threw them all. but i think anyone that left for that game will still be back for 2.0.

also on the ps3 thing, they probably preparing for success and failure at same time. i am picturing this game go free to play on ps3 like DCU with like 1 server lol. that is if fails. ps3 launch will be the time for game to meet it's makers but ps3 players themselves aren't the saviors ..it's the hope of all coming back and liking what they see. but by the time 2.0 launches we will probably have a feeling as to how much we would enjoy it or not already.

to devs: optimism only takes you so far. lets hope at 2.0 the content does all the talking cause promises and talk has already been used up by a long shot.
