Thanks Jolli - I would much rather hear it from a community that I've been around, and trust, than random people who were invited to the beta just to make comparisons to World of Warcraft...

A fatigue system sounds quite bizarre frankly, almost like a reverse bonus EXP system.
So, if you were to remain afk in game, you would ultimately receive 100% fatigue from doing nothing? Sounds abit ridiculous.

I read info on the class systems but frankly since I cannot mess with it hands on it seems illusive to me. Is each class leveled up individually and only interchangeable from an NPC which retains their level? Or are they instant changes/switches that can be made in battle like an ultimate hybrid?

If the class system is interchangeable, how and or what would be a reasonable group make up? And what is the group cap?

What is the level cap as of now?

Are monsters/mobs as anti-diverse as 11, or is there a wide variety?

Would you say sacrifice is worth the rewards in most cases?

You're very welcome. Keep it up.

And what's so pompous about that? You're the one being a douchebag. People are asked to comply with NDA's, it has nothing to do with being a part of the media. Sure, people break them all the time, but we're not going to say, oh, you're just an individual, so do whatever the fuck you want here! We'd let people post more scans, and wouldn't enforce the piracy issue if that were the case. It's not. Don't like it? Tough shit.

I prefer we stay on topic, but okay...

It's called, inciting motivation to speak up about something (this GAME specifically). Besides, the NDA was lifted for a couple weeks, and in case I'm mistaken this is a gaming site, a gaming forum - So what is wrong with encouraging players to give their input? Hmm.
If you ask me, rather than pass them off to some other site, or replying with some hollow pointless answer such as, you'll see when you play - I don't think I'm the one being the douche-bag.

And yes Grift, we all know you've got power, well shiver me fucking timbers. You even have 'He can also ban your ass!' under your avatar, minus the part 'for speaking your mind'. I don't know what your malfunction is exactly, but just because you have some sort of pretentious chip on your shoulder doesn't mean you're always in the right. You're not talking to some 20 something who's afraid of some lonely forum overlord. "Keep it up", okay dad, go ahead and ban me and delete the paper trail because you've got insignificant authority! And you must remind people of it! Give me a break.

No one is forcing anyone at gun point to talk about it, and no one said anything about gamersyde supporting ANTI-NDA behavior. So rather than intrude with useless uncle tom info and jumping to conclusions, maybe try letting someone who has played this game inform others who have not. It sort of keeps inline with the theme of the post, not to mention it might actually encourage great insight - One of the things a forum should do.

PS. I read each one of your comments, and I find you very bitter and unhelpful. I'm sorry you're upset, but you should be encouraging people, not encouraging grudges.

uh, lol... and yes... you're the one taking this personally and then rebutting with personal attacks. That's retarded. I didn't know the NDA had been lifted (and it sure doesn't seem like you did either), and clearly I am all for people posting their impressions now that it has been. You're being a dick. If I was going to ban you for "speaking your mind," I would have done it already. You're the one throwing a fit and starting shit. If someone bans you, it probably won't even be me, but given how easily you lean towards confrontation, I'm sure it'll happen eventually. My post was simple, and to the point. It wasn't laced with anger or attitude, it was just the way it works. If you have a problem with that, I really couldn't care less. You obviously have a problem with someone asserting authority here. That's what we're here for. Boo-fucking-hoo. You have an attitude problem, and you're the pot calling the kettle black. So, go ahead and talk about the game all you want. Please.

If I banned everyone that spoke their mind, even just those that were posting purely idiotic comments, we'd have a lot fewer users. This isn't about someone speaking their mind, this is about a non disclosure agreement and why people aren't just being "pussies" for following them. Unless you mean your personal, dickhead attack. Well, insults aren't generally welcome here. That applies to all users, not just me.

Seriously, if "Does not matter. The NDA applies to all testers. We don't pick and choose who has to conform to it here." somehow became some kind of awful attack in your mind, you need to grow a pair. I'm not upset. That would imply that I care what you think and how you read into things that aren't actually there in the text.

So back to FF14. Honestly, I don't care for this kind of confrontation, so please... discuss the game. I even asked nicely. For full disclosure, I'm hiding this discussion so we don't continue to venture off topic, including my own posts. It's not a personal, despite your badgering.

Look, Grift is only here (like the rest of us ) to keep some sort of order, we're not perfect.
If you don't like him that's unfortunate (I here he makes good food) but don't take it personal or you will get banned.
Anyway, back to the game.

The monster design is very good in this game, and they will actually look at you when they notice you, this one will drag you back in with his tongue if you try and run away.

Open Beta...critical bugs...less than 1 month from release. I'm sorry, but someone isn't doing their job or this isn't ready for release much akin to every other MMO out there. I'm sick of seeing them rush MMO's out the door with next to no content or balance and a ton of bugs. I hope they aren't doing that with this, but with such an announcement, it only makes you wonder...

Unless they are sitting on a pile of cash (Blizzard) then they have to rush these things, for ever day its in development they are losing money left and right, FF14 has already been in dev for 5 years.

Any beta open or otherwise is subject to bugs and its to be expected.

There will be no end game content when the game launches they have stated that already, they have a system in place to slow players progress so they have more time to work on content though.

Personally I would say unless you are really looking forward to this game leave it a 6-12 months before consider jumping in.
