Sell FFXIV through Steam

If not now, then when the game is ready for PS3 release. It was done with XI so I see no reason why it can't be done again through the Steam service. Putting this game on there is bound to draw some new subscribers... provided they don't get scared away by the Metacritic score (unless we ourselves go and work to drive it up).

Yup, I think the lack of XIV there send definitely a wrong message. It's like they don't want people to know this game exists.

Right now they don't want people to know the game exists... lol

Still think they should wait until ps3 release when the game should be pretty much upgraded fully

Yeah we should wait before we make our first impression on the steam community =/.

They will probably relaunch the PC game with the PS3 launch, that would include a steam launch. Square Enix has a big presence with Steam and use Steamworks a lot so, it's just a matter of when PS3 launch is.

It's going to be a funny day when FFXIV get released for PS3, £39.99 for the PS3 and between £4.99 and £9.99 for PC.

There is no reason to advertise in any way FFXIV when its in hardcore development mode. Many ppl would not enjoy it and might not come back after first bad experience. Let them taste full polished product first

SE would be insane to market this game in any fashion at the moment, but I still think the game will eventually pay off for them when it's up to snuff and on PS3. I know tons of people are still chomping at the bit to play it, they just can't afford the entry fee into enthusiast PC gaming rigs, or don't have the know-how to build one themselves.

I am in support of this whenever the timing is right... perhaps alongside PS3 release. I would love to see a Mac version too so my brother can play with me.
