Could Alex possibly add more snark and sarcasm in a single video post?

Probably, it's about the only thing his writing has going for it.

If you give SquareEnix any money for this game you are part of the problem.

I'm just glad they brought jobs like Black Mage and Dragoon back, we'll see how this relaunch goes.

As a depressingly longtime fan of FFXI, I really wanted the game to be good, and I still hope it will be.

Impressive CG, but I'd kinda rather they spend their time and money on the actual content of their games. It's all impressive to look at, but if I can't actually go to and explore these locations as they appear, then it's worthless.

I wish they would stop pouring money into this. It will only end badly.

I'm guessing it means they blew everything up and made a game that doesn't anger everybody.

excited for this, have been playing Final Fantasy XIV again for a while through its hardships, and improvements from a broken peice of software has been pretty impressive imo. Trailers pretty cool, think the voice could have been a little better though :D
