Wow this is so amazing. I love this arrangement of the Gold Saucer theme as well. Naoki Yoshida and his team did a wonderful job.

Becuzisaid3420d ago

I'm pretty sure this will be awesome in game, but I'm personally disappointed that its so wildly different than the Golden Saucer in FF7. It's so dark, and where's the amusement park-like attractions? Where's the skilift ride around the exterior of the park? Where's the arcade? The haunted mansion hotel? Battle arena?

Maybe it's just not in the video, but this isn't the Golden Saucer I was hoping for.

TheOneWhoIsTornApart3420d ago

It's different because it isn't the same Gold Saucer that was in VII. It also isn't an amusement park it's more of a casino and arcade combination not to mention it is set in a completely different kind of fantasy world.

Redempteur3420d ago

it's the Manderville version .

Don't know what being a manderville means ? better play the game and be amazed

The Xbox profanity filter is currently ruining the readability of the FFXIV chat on Xbox Series X/S due to censored words.

Lol, damn... At this point, they were better off keeping FF XIV away from Xbox. It has been nothing but obstacle, after obstacle.

wanted to say the exact same thjng.

VenomUK29d ago (Edited 29d ago )

What happens if you say things that used to get you banned on Twitter e.g. 'a man can't be a woman'?

I'm not convinced this is the profanity filter. It doesn't make sense to censor words like class, harvest and dance. It seems to be a bug.

Well, FF14 itself has some pretty awful chat censoring so Xbox being in the same boat isn't too farfetched

Eidolon28d ago

it censored the S T D in "harvest dance" and I bet the A S S in class. I know this because of Runescape

Aphrodia29d ago

Yeah these new fangled filters are going a bit too far. I have a game that filters "wtf". It's a censor for a self-censoring phrase. But I think overall it's how it should be. If you don't want certain language being used in your game by your player base, then it's up to you to filter/ censor the language you don't want. I can respect that. What I can't respect is when you say things that are not really offensive then you get ostracized for it.

What happened to just reporting people

NOMATICENIGMA29d ago

This is completely false, I tested this on my son's child account and mine, this is not Microsoft censoring they will censor swears but not the combination of letters I can prove this with a screenshot where I use all mentioned words in the article but do not know how to upload a picture.

NOMATICENIGMA29d ago

You can all continue your bashing, I was wrong someone explained to me this is a new policy, that's why it only happens for me in this brand new release. I'll try latter on ps to confirm but their response seemed informed wich leaves me rather worried for future censorship on my xbox.

CrimsonWing6929d ago

Geezus, Xbox, you get gifted gold and still f*ck things up.

NOMATICENIGMA29d ago

It's not xbox, go ahead start a chat with the youngest person on your friends list then say raid mass class sass said .... they do not censor any of these I even got away with R.Aids. sqaure on the other hand does.

CrimsonWing6929d ago

Does this affect PC and PS4/PS5 users, too? Or is it only happening on Xbox?
