    And to answer your question, yes i i'd rather wait a significant amount of time than to play with a character that feels stiff and awkward for a decade. Also consider the following : The animation we see in the pre-alpha videos, no matter how they fine tune it, it is already outdated compared to other games. MMO's need to be future-proof, and an FF one even more so because this is what it sells : production quality and immersion.
    Thats why minecraft sold millions of copies? Because it looked state of the art? Content and replayability sell MMO's. Wow looks like buttcrack by todays standards and it still has a ridiculous amount of subscribers. Xi still has more than xiv and doesn't look anything like it. I am not assuming you all wouldn't mind waiting longer, thats why i asked the question. I never said "none of you would wait for it" I asked if you were willing to. I don't see anything that makes me feel like this needs more time yet, but then again, I havent played it. I think it looks fantastic as is and don't see what all the fuss is about.

    Also, why is it that Yoshida and the rest of the devs keep saying in interviews that it will sport the best graphics of any MMO, and yet you seem to think they are way off base? I am just willing to believe them before I listen to a bunch of random internet heads that dont develope games for a living.

    If production and immersion were the only thing needed to sell games, then why the hell does the Call of Duty series make a new damn game every year? Different genres demand different things to keep people playing, and what your saying has its place but, for MMO's and RPG's, its content>graphics/animation. I play outdated RPG's all the time if they still keep me entertained. They tried doing the flashy graphics thing with the first release of this game, and look what it got em.
