Famitsu FFXIV vol 1 summer 2011

[AlexNiculaie]

Every single person I know in FFXI who is a die hard crafter, having multiple characters so as to master all of the crafts which they wished to do, were still very social. Mastering multiple crafts didn't make them antisocial. It's what they preferred to leveling other jobs. They just had to purchase multiple mules to do it.

Also, in XIV, not everyone will wnat to level all crafts, or even do any crafting period. Just like there are those who don't want to do DoL Class, DoM, or DoW. Not everyone is going to want to level every class.

Thanks Rein as always! When you'll buty it, I would like to know if there are many art inside. (i have it already in Play-Asia cart, ready to be shipped in case lol)

Some nice info there though.

Interesting news, thanks.

Mastery limitation is one thing I did not want to be carried over from XI, but I can deal with it.

I'm glad to hear about the unreleased classes and the map redesign.

uggg they are managing to ruin this game again with all the restrictions, i don't want to be told i can't level every craft if that is what i want to do. outside this i likes the new info's but seriously man se stop with the restrictions, other mmo's give us free multiple accounts to make ....u give us one, that means that one needs to work like that, be able to do everything on it.

To all the people complaining about the coming changes and planned changes: if it was in the game design vision before Dec 2010, chances are that it's not in there now. Tanaka's game is dead. Get over it. Tanaka's vision was failing to keep players because there was no focus and you could do everything yourself w/o ever talking to another person. This is Yoshida's game now. Changes are coming. Drastic changes. We, the players, asked for them. If you don't like having to interact with people to get things done, your best bet is to quit now because it's only gonna get harder for the antisocial "I wanna do everything on my own and shouldn't need to seek help if I don't want it" crowd.

I didn't realize you were being forced to pay.

I didn't realize you were being forced to pay.

If you want to level more than 1 crafter class , not only you have to pay , but you also have to redo all the sub crafts.
"then dont do it".Well i want to do it but im not willing to pay for it.
Been there , done that in 11 before.Is one thing i was hoping i didnt have to deal with here.

Complaining for the sake of complaining is bad.
But defending SE for the sake of defending SE is just as bad.
Bad mechanics should be complained about.

You could not force people to play because the game sucks. HOWEVER if you take away one of the ONLY features that people liked in the game that is almost exclusive to Final fantasy MMos and its only good feature over the millions of other MMOS then you have a dead game.

Just look around people do not like this so im sure as SE tries to "make good" with its fanbase this feature will not happen.
