Poll: FF14 Whats your opinion

[dsawyers9]

I guess FF11 was OK, didn't play it, first MMO was WoW and I'm not proud to say that.

FF14 IMO looks nice, but not sure the game play, going to look at some youtube clips of it now.

Until 9.30.2010 when FF14 does finally come out, what is your overall guess of how it will play out?

Didn't realise it was coming out so soon.

I'm going to be starting University soon, so I don't think I could really commit to giving x amount of money a month for a video game, so that's MMOs in general out the window for me.

Also, I don't think you can call FFXI a failure. To my knowledge, it's still going strong as we speak.

A large number of casual players will be turned away at the door because we can't pass the benchmark and even on the absolute lowest graphics the beta forces our computer to cough up a lung just moving the mouse.

The game will likely be a success, but once again the casual fan base that would love to play the game has been given the finger at the dock because even the lowest settings bust our balls and very few casual players are going to buy a brand new computer for a single game.

For the people who are typing up how they could TOTALLY upgrade there computers for less then five hundred parts because of how awesomely computer savy they are realize that casual players, an mmo's bread and butter, have no patience for that shit and would rather just ignore the game all together then spend $100 more then they have to to play it in the first place.

With more interesting MMOs like Guild Wars 2 and Old Republic coming out, I can't exactly get excited for another MMO.

Could I go off on a limb and say the following:

MMO's are dull and boring? I mean, how many times do you have to do that quest to collect X amount of paws or Walk some idiot back to the town 20 mins away and not let him die although everything within 30-40 yards aggro's his attention and charges like a noob?

Remember when FPS games were all over the gaming world? It got to the point of eh, another Doom rip off or another DOOM; DOOM 2000 the other 1999 DOOMs were nothing compared to this one, you get a mana bar now ... Oh So its not a MMO FPS? No, It's DOOM 2000 with a feel of a MMO RPG in a FPS!

Do i like MMO's? Yeah, Diablo 2 was a MMO, granted I could solo everything, but that meant less EXP and that wasn't cool. Do I like MMO RPG's? I'm starting to not like it. Why? Because when the day comes to an end, I'm relying on other players to not be an idiot and well, IMO the majority of players are idiots, including myself on a bad day.
