I have some questions before playing this game...
Hi, everybody. My name is Bee. New here, but not new to MMORPGs.
I used to play the original FFXIV, the one they considered total shit. I loved it. And I can imagine loving this game all the more since it was improved.
With that said, I have some questions before diving into the FFXIV world. This is a big decision for me and the answers I see in this thread will determine whether or not I will play the game...
Question # 1: I'm a PS4 player. I have no computers that can handle the demands of FFXIV, so I'll be playing with my PS4. I'm just wondering though, how exactly do I communicate to players in this game without a keyboard? Is there such a thing as a PS4 keyboard? How does voice chat work? So with voice chat, as long as the microphone is installed, literally EVERYBODY in the vicinity of the game can hear my voice?? Isn't that chaotic if there are lots of people who do that?
Question # 2: This game is several years old. How long is it still gonna be running before the developers decide to come up with a new FF Online? I don't wanna buy the game and enjoy it for only a year. I'm thinking long term here...
Question # 3: What exactly do people do here when it comes to group play? Like, what is the motivation for grouping up, as opposed to soloing quests? Are there special things I should know about like raids and stuff?
Question # 4: Is there an RP server? If so, which is it?
Question # 5: Which is the tank class?
Question # 6: Are there male Miqo'tes and female Roegadyns?
Maybe more to come...
Thank you.
