    Why would you downgrade to a 4? If I was mainly on PC my only reason for going to console would be the exclusives. But that's if I even like them to begin with.

    Try playing with a controller and only having keyboard in for typing. Its how I play on the PC and on my PS3. No lag from unsupported devices this way, at least not where it matters most. After playing this MMO on a controller, I cant go back to mouse and keyboard. Tried playing Jak and Daxter: the MMO (oops sorry, meant Wildstar) and all i wanted to do was use a controller with the same setup FFXIV has. I don't expect everyone to like it but at least give it an honest try (couple days of play) before people knock it. I do endgame content just fine.

    Slower load times, compared to what style of computer and processor (what are you using for a PC to compare to the PS4)?

    PS4 is only running a 1.6ghz processor and 8 gig RAM. Keep that in mind with your comparisons.

    PC is always going to be better than the PS4. That's a fact.

    I play on the PS4 and it's fine... Controller works fine and the framerate and graphics are fine too. Everything is fine.

    Right. The only benefit a PS4 has over PC is that a PS4 costs less.

    A console game can also be optimized way more than a PC. A PC with specs comparable to a PS4 cannot play games with as high settings as PS4. Probably applies more for games like Infamous than FFXIV but consoles do have their advantages, aside from having a much larger game library.

    That's all a lie.
    I've ran more games than I can count on an inferior GPU/CPU than what the PS4 has, at 1050-1080P with no issues at 60+ FPS (This my old system from nearly 5 years ago).
    The times it'd struggle, a little do it yourself overclock and you're back in the game.
    And they do not have a larger library. PC has backward compatibility ranging back to early 1990's and can emulate almost every single console up to the last generation of consoles. So...

    Correct. The only thing that can be upgraded in a PS4 is the hard drive.
