Next time you log into xiv take a few minutes and watch the opening credits. Looks amazing doesn't it? Now remember that was for the original released version of the game.
Pretty pictures seduced us before, I won't be getting excited till I play it.

@ FFXIV 2.0 information...

wow...i almost cried tears of excitement when i read the information, saw those beautiful concept arts.

This is the FFXIV i want to see!

Mystical forests, Snow-covered peaks, strange landmark formations, Ancient ruins covered in vines, Behemoths
Wicked looking monsters, new Jobs/Classes, Pimp looking gear, and those weapons, Housing!

Breathtaking...

Now this is what ive been waiting for, a Real FF game!

So imma stick around to see all this.

Go! Go! Go! Yoshi-P & Dev Team !!! ( ^.^)b

- Noomy!

Can't wait for all the changes!!! The new version looks like an actual Final Fantasy, not just in name. So excited!!!! A year is a long ways away but I finishing up my B.S. so not being sidelined by FF will be kind of nice.

I never played WoW but wasn't that just a button spam hack and slash type affair? I can't see SE ever making a game like that.

P.S I would love a link to a 1920x1080 pc of the new engine image, if anyone knows of one?

Actually WoW is much more complex than that. It does take a lot of team work and skill to defeat end-game bosses.

WoW did come to mind with that first screenshot of the fight with the dragon. I'm actually happy that SE took that approach. Like it or not WoW has spent a great deal of time and money laying the groundwork for a good MMO UI.

I am very excited about all the changes, minus the look of the UI.

I am disappointed that it seems the updates are farther apart.

Hoping to be able to change character race / look with new races released.

I am not a big fan of the UI, it reminds me too much of WOW, can we please have different versions of the UI look. It seems overwhelming and too much going on for my taste. I like how clean the UI is now. I would like to see a wider variety of icons for status effects instead of the same for defense effects and so forth, that would be a plus.

Why do we have to wait soooo long for a proper mail / party / LS / search functions.

Thank you for your dedication to making this a better game. I feel that the world will come to life with the new changes.

Can not wait for these updates! Everything is looking great! I think SE need to put out some of those concept arts for us peeps to download for wallpaper! Plz!

To everyone that says 'WoW clone' QFT until you know what you're talking about. All we have is a road map and concept art. This is by far the best thing they could do for this game. I've never seen an MMO give out so much info about where the game is going. It's going to take a while to get there, but i'm thrilled.

I was wondering something today while mulling this announcement over.

At what point is renovation of the current clients guts and back ground functions going to stop?

Now i realize that they are going to continue adding content up until the jump, but i just wonder when there going to throw up there hands and say. That's it we have duct taped the innards of this thing as much as we can.

What about features that have been talked about such as a player search /party builder are we just going to have to do with out and wait for them? Are we going to have to deal with the server side issues until this time next year?

Just something i have been wondering.

Watching all this coming in XIV2.0, has never given me such an excitement over things to come. Of any other games ive played so far in my life.

To all those who says its a WOW clone. LOL at you. Ive been playing WOW for 6 years and this feels nowhere close to WOW at all.

If XIV2.0 plays and looks as incredible as the previews show us, I wouldnt be surprised if loads of people cancels/freeze their WOW, rift, swtor account to come play
