This has only been released officially:
"SquareEnix has stated that the PC version of Final Fantasy XIV will likely need a fairly powerful computer. The Final Fantasy XIV community expects the minimum system requirements to be similar to The Last Remnant, which are as follows:
* CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo (2GHz) AMD Athlon X2 (2GHz)
* RAM: 1.5 GB Ram
* Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8600 VRAM 256 MB or equivalent
We will have to wait until we hear more from SquareEnix to confirm the information, likely as the beta version of Final Fantasy XIV (PC) gets dated.
The Playstation 3 version will most likely require 10GB or more hard drive space. The Xbox 360 version has not yet been confirmed, but would no doubt require the same amount of space."
you didnt take him seriously did you? If those specs were the minimum very few people would be able to play, It would take thousands of dollars to build that build. Not to mention those were the top of the line specs that a person could build.

BTW. I was joking with those specs for those of you who took it seriously. It's nice that people actually meet or surpass them, but the average consumer doesn't. Some of us have to sacrifice here and there. And the thing is a LOT of us "average consumers" make up a big portion the MMO community. I know a lot of poor saps still playing on CRT monitors STILL using their P4's. And the only investments they can make in their outdated systems is a new inexpensive video card and maybe some more RAM.
Oh and the first response on my specs joke, can I have your PC? lol!

Some people (not this one) choose to play on a CRT because of colors. I think LCD and the like have caught up though, but when you have PCs now a days that don't come with new monitors if something is still working for you ... have fun with it.
I've been training on sheep. I got this screenshot. Been playing for like 5 years now.
It looks a little low res. but its just probably your computer, yay for beta!!!!
