isnt really new, they did say the weren't gonna use POL for 'rapture' some time back

It's not new at all because most of us have already signed up in the new account managing system they'll be using for this. Did people really think the SE Account thing would just be for FFXI?

Newsflash, the security token will be compatible with FFXIV as well, I'd bet money on it.

This Q&A was clearly aimed directly at FFXI playerbase.

SE announced that the accounts + tokens would be used for all future online titles iirc.

Aside from a couple questions, I was really impressed with this Q&A. It seemed like a lot of the questions came STRAIGHT out of BG. I'm glad a lot of the big questions got answered (still sad they couldn't clue us in on battle system).

[Shadowhusky]

Laaaaaaaame, it's over.

[drwaffles]

That last one about pricing was mine, by the way.

Why am I not surprised?

[meeeeeep]

Mother fucker wasted our last question :/

[SamanosukeShiva]

[Spira]

and thats it..

yea.. i think the tokens would be used with XIV too

[BRP]

That wraps it up for the Q&A. Thank you all for following along and I hope you had some of your questions answered. That last one about pricing was mine, by the way.

Ok.

Now you can hate him.

[Kurokikaze]

lol the dude took credit for the F2P question.... douche is a douche.

[Stiker]

Solid Q&A, actually got more info than I thought we would. Very excited right now.

[Insanecyclone]

Some good questions and some bad alright time for uncharted 2 beta

[Olo401]

pffft that's it...

[Pikarya]

If Microsoft buys in, it will be the next PS2. You wait and see!

So... wonder if it's possible to get one of those tokens without having an active FFXI account. Lol

I dunno, to me it was a lot of confirming the obvious >_>

For people tonight who missed this, or people who wanna see it all in one place.

Overall those were some good questions. Conference served its purpose at ending that rampant speculation in the FFXI thread about character transfers, etc.

But promises are empty until they've been fulfilled, I'd wait for more before getting excited about their predictions for the scope of the game.

Should be very impressive graphically though, I was sure that the trailer they showed was all prerendered.

[Spira]

i'm glad for this interview..

a lot of dead horses are thanking SE right now
