XIV seems pretty unimpressive to me so far. It does look pretty but it will be very dependent on your PC and compatibility with graphics cards probably. Apart from the graphics it just seems like the same old stuff recycled and the character creation is just still too weak compared to some other games including Phantasy Star Online that only came out in like 1999. It's better than XI but was that ever really a great benchmark for comparison???
It is actually very different than XI, the level up system is completely re-worked, the battle system is completely different and the character creation is very versatile. I've watched a TON of videos and not seen one person looking like another person.

question:
the FFXIV version of Windurst theme?
if not, can you link me to it, that's gonna be my definite starting point as a FFXIV-Mithra

*** YES I'm remaking my char on 14
Well all the towns aren't available in the beta, but the windurst esque town isssss....
Should I have a professional build me a PC (cuz i don't know ***about it) or buy a premade one (like DELL or something from BestBuy)?
I kinda want it ASAP so i can get FFXI 40hr updates installed on it =x
(if all else fails, FFXI non-graphics lag xD) plus i'm using a laptop for FFXI (which i can take to school in the fall/winter when i'm done with homework)

I'm not saying XIV won't be different from XI, but it also isn't really new innovative stuff. I need more reasons to go to a new MMO and burn half my life away than "it looks pretty" and "Some things are different from XI". And about character creation, have you seen it in some other MMOs? Like I said PSO came out that long ago and even then you could completely customize your characters proportions and hair colour. It wasn't restricted to pre-defined settings and even if there is more in XIV it still doesn't give you full control. Why is that so hard for SE?
If you notice, there seems to be HNM on the map, as in the Kraken, Dragon and sea serpent.
DDDDDAMNIT
i wanna burn the Gridania theme on a CD and just constantly listen to it =(
wait if you don't start in those cities... wait... do you start in the jeuno-ish city?
There is a Jeuno-esque city apparently, but I don't think you can start there. As for that song, that's actually the soundtrack for the area around Limsa Lominsa :D

You can fully control your proportions in XIV ^^
Really? Last time I checked it just had lots of settings for height/size. It didn't have slider controls so you could make a truely unique height for instance.
It's there now, same as chin, nose, forehead, cheek size etc.

the song is really pretty =3
and where the hell do you start off? just in the middle of nowhere?
I'll make a human female with dark skin and dark hair like me! She won't have giant boobs. Maybe just a little bigger than mines so I can experience the thrill.
Darkish Mithra, Green or Blue eyes, Blue hair (if able), big boobs, nice dark tail, cute face =3

At the moment, you can only start in Limsa Lominsa, and you have a big cutscene on a ship, and then end up in the port.
I assume each town will have an unique cutscene
That's the last part of it, there's a huge cutscene with a giant serpent in it lol.

Since we all can't be on the same linkshell in game, this can be our cross server linkshell thread.
Like most linkshells, it can be pretty dead at times. Other times it's full of intense conversations about either rl, gear, goals, pokemon or anything else you want to contribute.
We can cover any sort of topic at all, within reason of the forum rules. No real main topic, just a bunch of FFXIAH friends/people coming on and discussing random things.
Yeah Chuu. Bringing you up to speed, Ludoggy is the LS pedophile. I'm the fountain of random and useless knowledge that makes you go "Hrm" with the occasional side of "holy shit he said what?"
Kungfu is the LS nutjob, spouting super random things that are usually sexist, until Savvy or Alyria comes into the room. Then he's a classic case of sexual harrassment. Rumaha is also true to the second part; we're wondering about his sexuality though.
Daj is Ludoggy's gay lover. Not much else is known about this Asuran. Tairo is kinda new, but since is a female and Alyria's lesbian lover, she fit right in real quick.
Celene(F) and Rowland(M) are more of the shyer members, but often say things that are witty, have a good pun and sometimes cause three page discussions. Celene hates when people hit on her. It doesn't stop them from trying.
Krizz is just social and likes to kill time here during work Tbest is about the same, except tends to be a douche to guys and affectionate toward girls.
Alyria is the most social female, gets groped a lot without provoking it by others, and Tairo ends up stabbing people for it. Cai is just a barrel of lols, I might be gay for him. If I wasn't straight.
Not sure about Citag, s/he's new. Kiriyu is just an in-out kinda person. Says one thing every three days that every guy makes a big fuss over. Ludoggy gets really defensive since she's asian and underage (might be 18 now).
Artem is the wayward soul that makes you ponder the meaning of life by constantly reminding us life can suck. But he deals, and so do we. About the same for Savannah, except people are more "AWH!" to her because of a vagina involved.
Dasva is the ex military man (as is Krizz but this doesn't apply to him) who hates the world and plots a way to destroy most of it.
Number2 is kinda like a mix between Cai and I; never bashes, likes to laugh and has odd avatars. His current suits a lot of the convos this LS gets into. Barti is most well known for his moustache. He gives mousatche rides for a fee. I'm missing a few people but whatever. CARRY ON!
Luelle Smells.
