Also, GT posted 2 new videos. They're much clearer. This is the magic and melee videos. Look on this one Sotek.

Also, these videos make me angry that my mother forced me to take Spanish in high school when I wanted to take German....

you wouldn't have remembered it anyway

The archer was awesome, I noticed that she shot about three consecutive shots. So it makes me wonder what the rules of ammunition is going to be in this game. Maybe they will neglect the ammunition system and go to one that is similar to XII.

Looking good looking good!!

Wow... just wow. These clips are amazing. I love the emote one, though. We're finally getting a thumbs up emote. xD I think I'm definitely leaning towards elvaan this time around... if they'd only show a male elvaan fighting. >.> I wanna see if they look like froopy bastards or not. lol I see they fixed how dumpy f elvaans are, so I'm guessing they improved that, too.

What's with the nodding when doing the nice guy pose? When has anyone ever done that? Mentos fresh grin or gtfo >.>

Not a typo. Watch video 1 close. The blue bar has a 4 digit number.

I'd hope for 120TP a hit, but then I'd wonder why add the extra 0.

[Aleera]

Haha, yeah. The hume (hyur?) one was a bit over-eccentric. I liked the elvaan, taru and mithra ones, though. And I like how /think for mithra looks more like Nanaa Mihgo's pose.

[.Sotek.]

They really made /cheer for mithra into a boxing emote >.>

Did you check out the Galka emote. Made me fall out of my chair, was so awesome.

I've trained myself to look away from galka.

[phunk]

The Galka does look the most natural out of all of them. The Female Elvaan looks a bit mannish, yeah?

[Merlini]

I found it funny when the Hyur did an emote which appeared to look like he was shadow-boxing. As Sotek mentioned, apparently the Mi'qote did it also.

The emotes are looking pretty cool so far.

I read thru the Zyuu "My experience of playing FFXIV alpha for 15 minutes"
And the conclusion am coming to is welcome for World of Fantasy 14, if quest are going to be kill 6 of X monster, or fish up Y fish, or gather Z herb and give to npc... this will be retarded. These aspects are in 11 yes, but are few and have little little effect on game play (till fov). If this will be another game in the class of aion, wow, guild wars, just with better graphics.. Forget it I’ll just hang out in 11 till they kill it or I quit!

At this stage I am hardly impressed, well to be honest am disappointed they are not using 11 game play mechanics. But jumping on the same wagon as the rest! Personally I hope I have overlooked something, or there is more to come. Because if what the videos show is what we are waiting on its feeble.

While I can somewhat agree to your post your post also confuses me. So you DO want to grind the same monster hour after hour after hour? You DO want to seek for party for hours and just sit around untill you get an invite? What "Mechanics" do you want transferred into ff14 that was in ff11? AND remember this is ALL alpha stuff. Dont get your panties in a bunch. I agree Wow/ Aion / WAR / everyother mmo type quests like this suck. But this is JUST a DEMO. What I THINK the quest system will be is different with teh guildlevels.

The way I see it or understand it to be is. You do get quests but with the guildleves system you also can customize the quest. Make it harder for you need more people, but better reward. Or you can change it somehow to fit your needs. The way that I would like it to be is somewhat like in CoH. I played CoH very little but I liked the missions. You and your group go into an instance, fight, kill monsters, do the objective you all get exp ect. Of course the exact format should be different. Let you customize it, put this card or w.e the guildleves thing is. Make it harder, get more people, you all get a bigger reward. Or you can solo it, get it done and get a reward.

Again I agree with you, wow quests suck. But is the FFXI way much better? You really cant judge the gameplay at all really in its alpha stage. It seems slower which I kind of like slower, the quests they were doing was prolly just for them to experience and show off combat.

- SUNDI IS BACK!? Who else is scared?

Oh god. I can already see the interviews being as shit worthy as XI's.

Though yeah, this is starting to look less appealing.

[_Vivik_]

You think the kill 10 Z mobs, every time for repeatable quest any better?

You DO want to seek for party for hours and just sit around until you get an invite?

This has little to do with game, it's a choice. In 11 you can do plenty till invite, so people crying "I wait 2h for invite but was afk and missed it" I have no sympathy for!

[Wuku]

Another WoW-clone... GOOD JOB SE, YOU ROCK!

[Corrderio]

I still think it's a bit too early to judge but yeah... if the core gameplay is doing quests then I'm not even going to bother.

[Gods_gift_to_women]

Amazing graphics! Just disappointed, I was hoping it would be fast pace action I want something new. Well to soon to tell.

TL;DR

from a previous video, the icons at the bottom dont appear to be a hot bar, but rather, something akin to FFX, showing whos aloud to go next, based on how long that action takes, but unlike FFX, the enemies are on a different bar, and can keep hitting u, making it a hybrid between FFX and ATB systems... (if im seeing it correctly.)

well at E3 they said it wouldnt be real time, tho id still call this real time, it appears to again, focus on teamwork, rather than person skill.

at 1st i was disappointed, but idk, i think i might like this idea. but ill still admit ill play Aion or Terra to get my "quick reaction" type of MMO system.

an interesting idea (if correct) but i see it getting old, FAST. ull get to max level, and then do 2 events and quit.
