What is Final Fantasy XIV : A Realm Reborn?

Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn is the "re-launch" version of the September 2010 Launched MMORPG, which was an uber and epic failure of a MMORPG. Despite being known as the worst launched MMORPG, they have admitted at fault, apologize and reshuffle the Development Team, with a brand new Director, Naoki Yoshida or known as Yoshi-P. Thus the first Final Fantasy XIV is reknown as Version 1.x. During his duration of overseeing and responsible to fix the mess that the old Development Team produce, SquareEnix CEO Yoichi Wada (Now former CEO) announce that the game will be free till it is fixed. So it begun the day where true fans of the game sticking to the game like glue and await the miracle patch that we thought it will come. The change to the game begin to see some significant enjoyment up to patch 1.21 where they announce that they are reinstating the Pay 2 Play for a the period of time, also announce... the version 2.0, where the whole game is being rebuild and was said to have already begun prior to patch 1.16. Meaning that they were doing Parallel Development where there not only keep updating the 1.X servers with Contents but also secretly building a whole new client, new engine behind our backs! The best thing about it that we are able to see the change that were made in 1.0, the storyline that lead to the epic ending of the server shutting down. And long story short. Here we are now.. entering the new age of A Realm Reborn.

Now that we are here nearing the Launch, early access which is starting @ 24th August 5pm. The game has come a long way to make it what was right since 2010. Of all the time of marketing and showing demo during E3, TGS, Gamescom, the game have been given said to be the most promising MMORPG. There is no Marketing Hype by Square Enix, just pure showing off game play instead of talking.

This game have shown the Media Coverage the Gameplay instead of Marketing craps that most Westerns MMORPGs tends to do.

So here I say that if you have a friend playing it, try it out from him, or wait for Trial Accounts which is being talked about from Square Enix in near future to try.




On another account, is like old school MMORPG, tab targeting, but with Final Fantasy touch.

to be honest my first impression after playing the beta , it is just your typical MMO with chores like quest nothing new .

Regardless I've already pre-ordered and going to play the EA tmrw. If you like WOW then you will like this game.



oh ya good thing is you can use controller such as xbox for pc biggrin.gif

^ this is quite true, because there wasn't any real HYPE, Square Enix never hype their game too much, not in other country atleast, thou they did do it in E3, Gamescom, TGS, and also their Japan have cool Eorzea Mirror! search youtube about Eorzea Mirror xD

Yeah i think that would be a good idea.

While you wait you can do like what i did and lurk around on updates and have a look at gameplays. A good plus is that the FF elements make you feel more at home and less likely to quit so soon if you grew up with it. I would also suggest reading the story especially to the part on how the 1.0 was ending to start of ARR. wink.gif

Around RM37 if you register an account under UK region and paying GBP. Despite the exchange rates it's cheaper compared to USD for now.

false.


There will be two type of Tier Payment.

Because of the Uniqueness of only needing 1 character and can change Class anytime by just unlocking the class and swap as easy as just equipping the weapon. You wont need many Alts. unless you're a Altholic.

The Entry Levels allows you to create 1 Character in 1 Server. 1 Account of Entry Level access, can make up to 8 characters.

Entry Levels is around 7.69 GBP / 10.99 EUR / 12.99 USD

The Standard Level allows you to create 8 Characters in 1 Server. 1 Account of Standard Level access, can make up to 40 Characters.

Standard Level comes with 3 Tiers payments.
£8.99 / 12.99 € / 14.99 USD - 30 days/month
£8.39 / 11.99 € / 13.99 USD x 3 month - 90 days (£25.17 / 35.97 € / 41.97$) (Save £1.80 / 3.00 € / 3.00$ )
£7.69 / 10.99 € / 12.99 USD x 6 month - 180 days (£46.14 / 65.94 € / 77.94$) (Save £7.80 / 12.00 € / 12.00$ )
