We're now three days post the announcement of final fantasy 14 and the information keeps streaming in! IGN.com posted an exclusive interview with the development team of Final Fantasy XIV. They got some further answers out of them, confirming the inclusion of Chocobos, dabbling in the battle system and, most of all, how the levelling in Final Fantasy XIV will work.

Levelling will not be experienced based, meaning characters and their levels will, assuming they'll even have levels, progress by some other means. The battle system will also be heavily dependant on the weapons the user is currently using. Let the speculation commence and let the theories start piling in.

We're going to work on a theories and rumours section in the upcoming few days. To have yours included, please send all your theories to admin@thefinalfantasy14.com.

You can read all about What we Know About Final Fantasy XIV So Far on our feature page. The link to the interview on IGN.com is also there.

On a slightly unrelated note, we noticed that our server was having network issues at around 7pm GMT today. The site took a very long time to load and the majority of viewers would've found that the site wouldn't load at all. We apologise for the invoncenience and we're happy to report things are back to normal.
