You would be amazed at how fast someone stops making threads when they get no knee jerk responses.

That or the people who share concerns or can actually debate properly instead of LOL Poster. How qui#kly and civil the threads come and go.

But people visiting ign for their gaming news won't see that.

it's not the games fault that IGN is terrible journalism

My left nut has better knowledge of marketing than SE. Seriously? They could have bled their FF fanbase dry if they would have thrown som money into TV advertising and spammed MMORPG.com etc. Even though 1.00 was a steaming pile they could have made a lot more money.

Likewise we will see a similar lukewarm approach to advertising with the rerelease.

SE isnt like Microsoft of Blizzard in terms of marketing, which I sometimes respect and sometimes abhor. Its cool to think they might want their game to speak for itself instead of shoving it down other peoples throats. But its an MMO the more people you get playing it, the more friends they will bring to it etc. its a good snowball strategy.

Lifes grand isnt it?

re-designed from the guts out.

How is it exactly a new game if they are redoing old maps, keeping the same back story of the original FF14... Seems more like an expansion to me. If It was in fact a new game, there would be no link between the current FF14 and the new 2.0, it would be a completely fresh start for everyone within a new world not linked to the previous. I understand they will be adding more features as well, but isn't that what an expansion is about?

what is beastopedia?
