Dude of course SE does know that means crap, but heres the thing..WTF can they do? Nothing! They dont make PS2s! Sony does! OMGWTFBBQ!?

Should it ever go PC only, i hope that they will revamp the graphics and many things. FFXI can be SO SO SO MUCH more than what it is now without the PS2 limitation. After all MMOs are designed for PCs...

EDIT: About beastmen vs cities, they prolly try to make it different than EQ's jacked up stuff...where you arent safe in a city. FFXI is all about reinventing things like PvP used in other games and making them different.
