[Rumor] FFvsXIII team moved on FFXIV + Release date in...!

[Abriael]

My personal prediction is between February and April. That's when Square Enix loves to release numbered chapters of the series in the west, and it makes sense with the current beta schedule. It could be SLIGHTLY earlier if SE wants to rush out (but not by much, I don't think it's realistic to predict a release anywhere before the end of january). or later if they want to take their time, but that window is the one that makes the most sense in the current conditions.

NO, not in this forum.

LOL guess not!!

You guys need to start believing this information. If you look at all of the things the need to implement and test, do you really think its going to be a hop, skip, and a jump?

Use your heads.

Worst move SE could do....

FFXIIIVS>FFXIV any day of the week, SE get your bearings straight, FFXIV 2.0 won't be that amazing, it might be good, but really? This has priority over FFXIII?

There you are!!! We missed you!

This. What makes you think it will be re-released anytime soon? They are still developing stuff as we speak. We haven't seen or heard details on major systems..because they are still making them! If it re-released in the summer that would still be pretty miraculous and probably not include much new content.

It's irrelevant. All of it is.

The game will get done when it is done. My point is that the jaded cynicism of this forum needs to be gutted; literally and violently.

So far the moral implications are really looking to be trivial compared to the sheer vicarious delight it would give me to hear one story of some internet hater impaled on a pike, Vlad style.

This isn't about the game or your concern for its quality. It's not about having so called 'standards' that disappear when it actually comes time to act on them. This isn't about what's even right or wrong. This is about purposefulness being contrary and jaded in a vain attempt to elevate one's self above others, be it fans, critics, developers or corporate office.

And it is revolting, plain and simple. Discussions like these are the primary reason why I never hold internet communities with any real respect.

Until official word on a delay of intended release is given, it is pointless to try to imply it, as you're just being accusatory at that point.

As far as a matter of personnel shift from one project to another - that is blatant and vindictive flamebait. What a corporation does with their manpower is their business, and being hung up on Verses XIII is just sad at this point. People should move on with their lives and quite trying to micromanage others'.

Now excuse me while I go murder a few thousand more burbles.

I was reading through the new Letter from the Producer LIVE Q&A post and headed over here and saw this really off-the-wall rumor being discussed in a thread that is sadly coupled with a lot of personal insults between a few users. I'm going to close this and ask users refrain from attacking each other and instead focus on fighting for and protecting Ul'dah from monsters. (It needs it… in case you haven't noticed.)
