PS3 UI Screens

Yeah yeah whatever you say kiddo. All that inferior gaming of the 70s/80s/90s and all.

Uh, what? PC gaming was huge in the 80s and 90s as well? Or I guess shit like Myst and Unreal Tournament aren't real games.

Not this granola shit again. My pad worked wonder for any event in the game. I'm inferior doing the same things as others ?

I suppose I should've provided a bit more of a context. The way the game is now, gamepad works just fine. You don't gain any advantages by using keyboard and mouse, quite the contrary, the implementation of these devises is horrible. Playing this way is rather unpleasant. However, this will no doubt change in ARR, as the game is designed to accomodate both those who prefer gamepad and those who prefer keyboard.

Of course, we will have to try it out for ourselves first before passing any verdicts. Still, logic dictates that it's easier and faster to activate the ability by simply pressing, say, "F" key, instead of pressing "L2" + "left" on a pad. Not to mention that you won't be able to fit all of the abities and macros on one bar, you'll have to scroll through them. Mind you, I've never said that gamepad sucks. If nothing else, new UI beats an old (current) one by the mile. It's just that keyboard and mouse makes much more sense in MMORPG enviroment, where you got a crapload of abilities to operate with.

I think I am old and blind because to me the graphics look wonderful...

But then - When I was a kid the coolest game out there was Super Mario on 8 bit Nintendo and at the time that looked awesome to me as well...

Games of my childhood was before there were recognizable sprites, even if you grew up in the 70s or 80s or 90s it doesn't really take much to see the shift of graphical detail between 1.0 and ARR.

I'm not hating, you're just misinformed, unknowledgeable, and uneducated when it comes to extrapolating the difference between style vs detail (aesthetics vs graphics).

Aion may have reviewed with high scores but it doesn't make it a better game. You know what other game got high scores? SWToR. What a crap game.

I speak from experience as I've played both and found both games miserable.

Sure is subjective there. SWTOR didn't meet expectations != crap game. (And that's coming from someone who stopped playing and didn't like the game...)

Crap game was XIV 1.0 at release, that can be considered as a crap game. Where everything (well the few things available) didn't even work properly. Even if SWTOR went F2P and didn't meet expectations, the game may not be the best, but it's far from being "crap".

If SWTOR was crap according to your standards, I hope that ARR is crap as well then.

Sure is subjective there. Not meeting expectations =! crap game. XIV met no one's expectations because it was unfinished and the higher ups rushed it out. It's funny how you'll defend everything but come XI/XIV you'll throw out the same defensive logic you use.

Both games suffered problems in different areas that would classify both of them as "crap games." Next you'll say "but most people agreed XIV was crap"..hey so did most people about TERA and SWTOR, but you say otherwise.

Dude I'm a gamer not some geek that thinks he's awesome on the interwebz because I swallowed a dictionary this morning to make myself look cool, I couldn't care less about the difference. I play a game to enjoy it, have fun and relax from RL. End of the day FFXIV was MADE to be in HD, but because of the horrible system it can not handle it, why do you think they have redesigned it? Because its perfect as is? No. It only took them over 2 years of patches to actually make people want to play it more, that and the fact that FFXIV ARR looks out of this world.

Good for you for playing SWToR, jumped on the hype bandwagon like alot of people and look how that turned out eh? Didn't look that great at all tbh.

While I'm not at all about to get involved in the hilarious pointless bickering in this thread, I have to point out how silly one looks when they berate someone for using "big words".

Some people have a larger vocabulary than you, get over it.
