    Plenty of people out there, both PC and PS3, don't know what they're doing. The same can be said for good players.
    The difference is huge, and most people claiming that there's little difference are just lying to themselves (or did not watch those videos in 1080p). I have both the PC and the PS3 version and I've only played the PS3 version once. With my group I never have any trouble at all killing Twintania on the first attempt every week, but one day I decided I wanted to sit in the comfort of my sofa and try it on the PS3. That was the first time I'd ever been hit by Twintania's dives and the last time I ever played on PS3. As the OP says, it looks like an absolute disaster, frame rate is horrendous, and in all honesty it had no business being released.

    Most PS3 players started on PS3 because they cannot afford mid-range PCs that can run the game, so they've never really experienced the game the way PC players have, and that's perfectly understandable. It's no doubt that to them the game runs "perfectly fine", and they have no problem with it, because they have never really seen the PC version in action, but as a PC player that goes to PS3, it's just an utter absolute nightmare.

    Do I agree with the OP that SE should drop support for PS3 users? Of course not. Will I ever bring a PS3 player to something like Titan Extreme or Twintania? Hell no, not unless I'm selling the run to them.

    So because you stand in bad stuff SE should stop letting people play on PS3... got it.

    I one shot titan ex. I play on a ps3. In fact people ask for me to come help them for titan HM, and primal exs because... HAHA.. I don't die.

    Turns out not being bad has more to do with it than the system you are on.

    Funny how I only "stand in bad stuff" when I got on the PS3. Again, as someone who plays primarily on PC and 1 shots all 5 turns of Coil with no problems and 1 shots all Ex primals with no problem at all, I can safely say the problem is not me.

    Looking at your gear, you're primarily geared with Mythology, most of your allagan comes from lolturn 1, you do however have a piece from turn 4. So I'll make you this offer:

    Go defeat twintania with your immense PS3 skills, record it and post it on here. If you can do that I'll admit I was wrong, I'll stfu, and I'll leave.

    Edit: Also, looking at the first line of your post, I'm going to assume you're on here trolling for your own amusement or you're just an idiot. If you'll look near the bottom of my post, I said that I do not agree that SE should drop support. Please read my full post before trying to act like you know what you're talking about, instead of just spewing PS3 fanboy nonsense.

    If you don't like my gear talk to SE and tell them farming coil for months and getting 5 allagan drops is BS.
    First off, Whilst there's a lot of "word-of-mouth" claims of PS3 winning the fight, there's not a single PS3 PoV video depicting so, and these claims could very well just be PS3 white knight fan boys like you. Even that being said, it's not 100% impossible for a PS3 to beat twintania, since if the other 7 players in your party are competent enough, they can essentially carry you through it (I've already seen FC's selling TT wins/Drops on my server). Either way, I direct you to my last post, in which I said, beat it on PS3 (without dying/ being dead weight) and record it. It's as simple as that.

    Second, while your gear is nothing to brag about, the point I was trying to make there was that you have one piece of gear from turn 4, which means, you have seen Twintania and clearly you can get up to him at the very least. That's why I made that proposal in the last post about you recording a PS3 kill.

    Don't even bother.

    This whole thread was created with the idea that people must spend hundreds of dollars overnight because some players say so.

    False, and everything about your statement is nullified in my eyes because you have this mindset.

    The majority of PS3 players on Final Fantasy XIV play on consoles because they have never had a need for PC. This is very likely their first MMO, and if they own a PS3 and bought Final Fantasy XIV they are likely a Final Fantasy fan before an MMO fan. This game was built for those very people and that is one of the primary reasons FFXIV was designed so that it can be played almost entirely solo (without need for FC etc). Yoshi-P has stated this many times.

    You're elitism couldn't be more clear. I play on both PC and PS3 and enjoy playing on both as I have already said.
