I was celebrating with my stuffed animals and pillows and blankies when I saw this. ^________^

This deserves its own topic, but if the mods want, we can merge it into

here are the races!



Roegadyn (Rogadin)



Lalafell (such a kawaii race name! =^^= )



Hyuran (very cool title for human types!)



um, haven't found the Mithra/Elvaan type scans/translations yet.


there are 4 categories of Jobs: Fighter, Sorceror, Crafter and Gatherer

8 Jobs known so far in each category:

Fighter: swordsman, archer
Sorcerer: enchanter, warlock
Crafter: blacksmith, cook
Gatherer: gardener, fisherman










SQUEEEEEEEEE! ^.^ This is exciting new media is pouring in! ^_^ Feel free to thank me and SE and Famitsu and stuff.

Why would they bother changing the names of the races when they're clearly carbon copies of FFXI?

The classes don't sound terribly exciting so far.

Because it's not Vana'diel? Besides, the Galka look 20% less ugly and dumb, and the Tarutaru don't look nearly as kickable.

The classes don't sound terribly exciting so far.

They're not gonna blow all the cool info out all at once.

Galka are looking a LOT better now, but I'm not so sure about the Tarus. They seem too big!

If I play XIV I will definitely go back to Hume, they look great. Also, that BLM or whatever looks BAD. ASS. Visible capes/robes YES PLZ.

The crafter and gatherer classes just give me the heebie jeebies, like they're taking a step backwards towards Ragnarok Online.

Lalafell!!!!! Omg! So cool! No longer puntable! I will Deffeintly play as these guys this time around!

Also... ENCHANTER JOBS!!!!!!! Whoot! I wonder if they can "Enchant" weapons and such as well. That would be so cool!

Squeeee!!!! ;>.>

Welcome to 2002 (technically 2001.)


Also, does SE think anyone (and I mean anyone) will stop calling them Hume, Elvaan, Mithra, Galka, and specially Tarutaru?

Why not just go with the old names and save yourself the trouble. Heck, Chocobos have been called Chocobos since the dawn of time.

People who haven't Played FFXI, who will be playing FFXIV... Yes.

Some of the Names are REALLY hard to pronounce though. :/

Someone please remind me of the last time Raydeus said something constructive.

Did that even happen at all?

Re: Final Fantasy XIV Races and Classes Revealed!!!! (SCANS!) ultimate game!

You know the races look awesome and all but again.. no male mithra? where? D: /sulk

Re: Final Fantasy XIV Races and Classes Revealed!!!! (SCANS!) ultimate game!

People who haven't Played FFXI, who will be playing FFXIV... Yes.

That's why I said stop calling them with the old names.


But yeah I'll make my part to convert any new players to the old ways.


Lalafel... psh, yeah right.

Oh, sorry. I don't have gay stories to share with you.

Good god those are some ugly fucking taru.


FFXI Taru: Cute! Lovable! Adorable! Wish they had plushies!

FFXIV Taru: OH GOD THE HORROR IT HAUNTS MY DREAMS LIKE THAT CLOWN AT MY SEVENTH BIRTHDAY PARTY.


Also, judging by the headshot, FFXIV Mithra looks like a hume with cat ear accessories.

The characters, generally speaking, look lower quality (design speaking; they look dopey, loosely artistic) than FFXI ones, with the obvious exception of Galka. The ONE thing I can hope for is that they look like shit because FF14 is getting a robust character creator.

Re: Final Fantasy XIV Races and Classes Revealed!!!! (SCANS!) ultimate game!

Moogles are Moogles, goblins are goblins, Chocobo are chocobo, why would they change the damn race name if they're obviously exactly the same? Still, they do look beautiful... and they female Elvaan doesn't look so manly and gross now.

Re: Final Fantasy XIV Races and Classes Revealed!!!! (SCANS!) ultimate game!

IF I can finagle a way to play this game, I really don't know which I'd like to be... they really all look so good. But yes... the race names will either take some getting used to ... or simply blown outta the water by a community that loves the old ways.

... me likes the TaruT... er, I mean Lalafel.

Galka look sweet though... and male humes don't look so girlie/emo ... er, well... yet ... elf lady is hot... don't really like the male counterpart though... main thing with the elves is running animation that is less awkward.

No Manthras T_T

... guess we'll have to keep lifting them tails to check. Don't need any "Cryin' Game" scenarios in FFxiv. Though they are rather humorous.
