so blitz ball

[ZhaneX]

Uh, yeah no. Blitzball was a nightmare in 10.
I absolutely do not feel the slightest need for it in 14, but I'm sure it will happen anyways.

To be fair, in his comments, Yoshi-P kind of (Politely) acknowledged that FFX Blitzball was crap.

[SigmaOZ]

Don't call Blitzball crap, it really was in FFX-2 but the original thing from Final Fantasy X was the best mini-game any FF game has ever had, it would work great in FFXIV and there are many ways to play it, single player vs. AI, players vs. players!...

There's more to Blitzball than just the game itself, there's NPC and in FFXIV's case there could also be player's recruiting, besides tournaments so even if Yoshi-P said the game is crap truth is it's far from it!...

Can we just say "NO!" To Blitzball in FF14?

I'd rather see it as a standalone game than see it have anything at all to do with FF14. As someone was very fond of pointing out in that massive jump potion thread, dev time is not infinite. I'd much rather see dev time spent on something meaningful to the game, rather than the next Lords of Verminion or Chocobo Racing or Triple Triad - things that people generally don't do after a week or two. A few more MSQ, a few more side quests, an additional Trial, anything but another "popular for a week and ignored forever after" piece of content.

I'd prefer Huttball, myself

This person understands. Huttball was so good in SWTOR. I really wish more MMOs did this.

I think it would be fun if Blitzball could be a new PVP mode instead of a gold saucer addition (where killing is not the objective but blocking/attacking is part of the game).

[Fawkes]

They said they were working on snowboarding shortly after they added the gold saucer, so maybe by like 7.0 we can have blitzball.
