Differences between PS3 and PS4 besides graphics?

The game looks so much better, it's almost like playing with your glasses vs the PS3 which is like playing without your glasses. Everything is sharper and has more detail.


Seriously though the game is better in nearly every way, physics, sound, visual effects, resolution, framerate, lighting, draw distance, load times, etc...I'd also say that whatever lag you might experience is less evident than on PS3.

With regards to the UI and such, the PS4 version is much closer to the PC version in pretty much every way including support for mouse and keyboard - PS4 supports standard USB keyboards and mice - it also supports the logitech bluetooth ones that were made for PS3.

Also, the PS4 voice-chat facility works while playing, which is helpful if you know other PS4 gamers on FFXIV, but sadly is not cross platform so to voice-chat with non PS4 players you'll still need a third party app on something else.

Oh, if you have a Vita, remote play actually works on PS4, and although you won't be raiding with it, Vita remote play is viable for crafting, gathering and general play. Just be aware that there is a bit of additional lag inherent with any remote play system.
