Happy Wednesday everybody, and welcome to the Daily XP. So today is a really slow news
day, I might just spend the whole day talking about awful final fantasy 14s relaunch has
gone so far. You would think that after the colossal failure that was the original launch
3 years ago, they would have learned a little something. Of course, the issues this time
around are completely different, but I'm not one to ease up on the criticism. On today's
show we have SMITE, Final Fantasy 14, FFXIV and Final Fantasy XIV.
Following last week's GamesCom reveal, SMITE players can now check out the latest updates
to the game. Of the most important things coming was the three new Gods, well 1 new
god and 2 revamps. Hi-Rez Studios worked with Tencent to update the Chinese gods with new
models, textures and ability effects. Of the notable changes, Guan Yu gets to ride a badass
horse and Zhong Kui the Demon Queller is revealed as an exorcism-themed god that is well equipped
to disrupt even the most organized of enemy teams. The full rundown of additional features
in the new patch can be found on their website.
So I told you we would talk a bit about Final Fantasy 14. If you were one of the few that
actually got to play yesterday during the launch, you probably had a decent time. There
are plenty of raving reviews to be found all across the social network universe, but .. most
likely you didn't get to play, and so the rest of us took to Facebook and Twitter to
discuss our frustrations. You don't have to hashtag ffxiv for very long to find cry babies
everywhere whining about not being able to log-in. But I guess I understand your frustration,
we've been waiting years for the re-launch and spent our hard-earned dollars to buy the
damn thing, only to not be able to play. I fear that launch day problems are becoming
the norm, in fact it would be breaking news if a game actually made it through launch
day without a hitch. There are too many of us gamers who want to be the first at everything,
including leaving the "first" comment on every youtube video ever, which means we all want
to play on day one, and we'll all *** about it if we can't.
So yeah, that's all i've got for you today. Our code word for the day is ffxiv, just head
