I know some of you don't mind testing and that is totally cool. My statement was aimed at people who expect fully polished products while still in beta, since the only real reason they are doing any beta testing in the first place is primarily because they want early access. They then go and complain because X sucks and may seriously misjudge the game before it is up and running properly (which honestly can sometimes only happen like 6 months after release of a MMO's, never mind it still being on a beta phase).
I am absolutely certain this game will have its haggles like FFXI did (bad controls, no newbie intro, insanely hard quests and mobs, lack of explanation, but honestly, I have noticed that if a MMO is too easy to access it quickly gets overrun by morons. Then dev's start catering primarily (solely) to them, and the game goes to shit fast.
I have faith in this product (which I seldom have for the majority things). Perhaps my expectations will be too high, but then again I am realistic and my expectations are in check. Let's see, mayhap a month after release I will eat my words
after hellgate and age of conan i don't think the top spot for worse launch is in threat

Our first impulse when we spotted this abstractly formed Final Fantasy XIV-branded 802.11n router on the TGS show floor was that Planex Communications was some sort of rogue IP-infringing KIRFufacturer. It turns out that's not the case. Planex Communications is a totally upstanding manufacturer of all things networking and Japanese-video-games-branded, and the fact that this ¥9,980 (about $116 US) router was located a few feet from Square Enix's own booth should quell any other misgivings. Now, as for misgivings about dedicating the majority of your life over the next couple years to another treadmill of XP, loot, and Moogles, those are in your hands.
I see BTGames are listing as only getting FFXIV in late October. Thoughts? Where are you people getting yours from?
i've tried, the mmo is probably awesome, but i just can't associate with the current given classes to play it to deth.

Hey guys, ok so here goes i have been a wow head fro a while but long before that i was a huge FF fan and last night i started playing XIII on my housemates Xbox and the love is still there now i am seriously considering getting XIV anybody know what the monthly subs will be and those that have been beta testing it what are your thoughts yay or nay ?
I am certain it will be the same (roughly) monthly sub as WoW. I have not played FFXIV beta, but from what I have read, and considering their past work FFXI, FFXIV it is not an easy going experience like WoW. So if you get frustrated having to work out where to go, how to do things and the like, then this game is likely not for you.
Well im generally very patient and dont mind running around for hours trying to figure out what to do but im still keen !!
Yeah then if you are keen you should give it a try. Just remember that most MMO's at release suffer from problems. Too often I see WoW players overly complaining about a new MMO because it is not as polished as WoW. Sadly in my experience with MMO's is that they only really pickup after like the first expansion. Until then they suffer from some very obvious niggles.
