I'm tired of PS2 holding back PC and soon Xbox360 version of the game. All their excuses such as dyeing hair armor or any character customization is blamed on the PS2.

[Tonka]

Yeah. Lose PS2! w00t!

[Jabberwocky]

You can both burn in hell.

Little point arguing for that here, you want to make your point you'll have to go to Japan and lobby among the Japanese players to get them to give up the PS2. Square is only catering to the home market by keeping the PS2 in the FFXI 'loop'.

[Tonka]

Sorry, Jabberz. I didn't mean it. ;_;

However, I LOVE it when there is a large amount of character customization. When I played City of Heroes I spent half the time just creating new characters. And I NEVER ran into a twin in that game. FFXI would rock so hard if you could do stuff like that. However, they aren't going to change it now so there'd be no point.

But that crap BETTER be available in the next FF online.

[Jabberwocky]

I doubt they'ed make another online one. Atleast with the FF name.

[Tonka]

I think they will. So...there.

[Byozuma]

There's a very good chance they might, look how successful this one is. But there's also a good chance it might be PC/PS3. XBox is a doomed name in Japan.

[Jabberwocky]

No duh. I don't know why they even bothered this time too. The first Xbox was a lead ballon in Japan. (Japanese gamers must have better taste)

[Roderyck]

so, you would have people that have invested just as much money as you, screwed out of the game so that you can customize your character better.
awww you poor thing (/plays little violin).

that's what you get for playing a game that supports multiconsoles to make more money. in a few years, you will be saying the same thing about the xbox360.

i bet they don't drop the ps2 until they can offer it on the next playstation console. they have an obligation to make as much money as possible. i mean they have an obligation to the people that purchased their product.

[Demonblade]

Why is character customization blamed on the PS2....

[Uragirimono]

Drop the Xbox right now. Why? I just don't like Xbox. Why? It has no Gundam games so screw it.

Sup?

It's a lot easier for the PS2 to load simple dats. If hair dat was seperate from the face, that's something else to load. And if you can change the style of the hair AND the color, that's two more things to load. If you can pick different skin tone and facial markings...that's more stuff. If it were all those things, it'd be 5 different things to load.

I guess that makes sense. Oh well.

[Demonsamurai]

IIRC wasn't this game introduced for PS2 in Japan before they released it for computer in Japan?

So then why would they drop it from PS2 if it was originally made for PS2. If your pissed because you can't customize your character go learn how to edit .dats, and shut the hell up.

I can't believe how mad some of these people got over this topic! That is hilarious.

Yep.

So dropping PS2 is not an option.

[Roderyck]

hey, buck up little camper; at least the graphics are better than WoW.
