Uhh... and what exactly does this have to do with this game? There's no stupid DRM issues, it's not like the settings can't be changed, obviously the PC version came out LONG before the console version, keyboard works just fine, and there is no mandatory login in another website or program. So once again, what exactly does this have to do with this game?

Not completely true.

Well... I suppose one might argue Final Fantasy XIV isn't the most keyboard friendly game ever. But.. it's also hardly the worst, and the flaws are being rectified fairly rapidly.

And.. well, at launch it's true we had to use the software mouse. Speaking of I need to turn that back on, see if it's still a problem feature. Mmh..

Maybe the original poster's just.. asking the developers not to do something like that?

Or in the camp that doesn't like the current keyboard support, and didn't read that's on the fix list? Same goes for the few things can't be adjusted yet.

Or they're just daft.

This is completly irellevent to this game, first it was designed for the PC, with the PS3 in mind, Firstly this game has no DRM, second, you can ajust your settings (however its not ideal to close the game to change most of them), thirdly it wasnt released long after the ps3 version and fouth you cant help but log into an online game, yes its another thing to log into but it cant be helped.

All I agree with is the "forget most PC users arent using a gamepad" but that is one of what was mostly irrelevent to this game.

It's a troll, just trying to point out "how SE screwed up with their PC/PS3 combination plans."

Excuse me, I need to go to bed...

Far more likely PC games will die.

I kept thinking of FFXIV when I read this article.

Steam would like to have a word with you.
