FFXI Races in FFXIV pictures New

[Jaybar]

Wait, did no one read the SE interview? They are purposely reusing similar features from FFXI. Probably a safe-face by SE, but I'd rather play with characters I feel familiar with, imo. I love how people are assuming everything is going to be almost mirror replicas of FFXI after seeing 10 pictures.

I think they had the idea "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" theory. would visuals alone stop you though from trying it?

As long as the plot and game play are different...

We can never tell from 3-4 screens , the cities look completely different than anything in FF11 "The big cities" i think we will be able to tell once we see a trailer that show areas/cities in motion plus fighting/hnms etc in a video

[Thiefami]

while i agree you can't judge off 10 pictures, those areas do have striking resemblance to ffxi zones lol

of course, I'll even agree to that.

Not really

The screens show open fields which look pretty much the same in many games not only FF11.
We need screens that show us the special areas/dungeons/caves/etc

Of course they do! I bet there's a desert, a big cave (oh wait there is), a mountainous snowy range, a tropical paradise, savanna..etc.

I notice they mention different types within the main races. Perhaps their faces and skin change in game or in choices to meet those sub types. The storyline seems to project that the eastern side has some dominance but I was so excited I have to read it again.

Well they did say that female/male of the same race will have a different status

[Thiefami]

so I wonder what Ishgard looks like, probably the biggest citystate of them all

I want to see the cities in game so bad.

[Akiyama]

Gonna start in Limsa Lominsa. Already decided.

you think they will let us choose what ever race we want in the city we want? they did it in XI think they will do the same?

[Akiyama]

Fk yeah piratin' time.

you think they will let us choose what ever race we want in the city we want? they did it in XI think they will do the same?

I dunno. I hope so. I went Elvaan in my XI career and Windy was my hometown. Limsa Lominsa looks like the 'Taru' town here, so I hope they let you be any race. I'd think they would. I see no reason why they would not.

In FF11 they wanted every race to start in its own city
But they changed their plans when people wanted to start the game with their friends in the same city

So i think they will let us chose again

Oh shit, it's Kevin Costner or is it Liam Neeson?

Thanks for the pics. This game is looking better and better with every pic!

I find it interesting that they said absolutely nothing about Mithra and Galka being only one gender. hopefully it's a sign that you will be able to see both sexes of the race. I also found it interesting that races seem to no longer have the weaknesses they once had, such as the galka mages.
