FF XIV UI

in Final Fantasy XIV

Anyone know if this FFXIV will be going with a more straightforward UI or sticking with their RPGesque UI like XI's design?

    There is no info on this, thus nobody outside SE will know yet.

    I expect console UI again. I don't mind, for I have a joypad and I can adapt quickly to what UI they use.

    I hope they incorporate both. There is no real excuse not to. PC is a very versatile medium.

    ah yes but its not being developed for the PC alone. PS3 (and yes maybe Xbox360) will be in the mix too. I expect it to be more advanced that FFXI's but still nothing compared to what we see in other PC onry games.

    There actually is a very good reason not to.  If the PC interface can do much more than the console interface than PC users will have a major advantage over their console compatriots.  Leading to customer complations and potentially bias against console players (possibly even legitimate if the PC interface is that much better.)

    IMHO, the better argument to make is that it's easy to attach a keyboard to a console these days, so there's no real reason to limit the UI based on someone playing with only a controller.
