    I thought it would be a good idea for a lounge on here to help players connect with other players on the game, and discuss anything else on topic with FFXIV, be it crafting help, levequest help and so on.

    Because the game is crap. And I'm not just saying because I have a G73, and blaming the game... It's just crap.

    Runs almost full setting in 1080p on my g73jh, theres just tons of lag on servers right now because everyones in one spot, the population hasnt spread out, its the same as ffXI in that regard or any mmo for that matter. Only gripe I have right now is the curser seems a bit slugish, but im thinking this is server lag, i might be wrong and ill mess around with settings to see if Im bogging it down running at 1080p with full. Ill message back with result

    I wasn't just talking about the performance. Just everything, in it's entirety...

    It was made for PS3. It's probably the worst of the big name MMO's to be released... ever. MMORPG for PS3 says it all.
    - In fact Square Enix has officially endorsed a controller for even the PC. It's that bad.

    Well whatever, I shouldn't bash this sorry excuse for an MMO any longer. If you like it, then that's all that matters. I'll wait for other MMOs that are made to be played on PC, Guild Wars 2. Mess around with Vindictus for now, which is F.R.E.E.
