FFXIVCore.com has posted leaked FFXIV information from a Japanese magazine (Famitsu) which is out tomorrow. It's common for Famitsu to tease everyone prior to their magazines release.
Some of the information leaked is:
- Necklaces, belts, and rings, unlike XI, will be reflected graphically when equipped
- It
seems as though westerners translated my comments as “everything would
be seamless” but in actuality not everything from towns and the worlds
will be seamless
- Seamless movement in an area equivalent to the size of a region in XI will be possible.
- You will be able to draw weapons in towns.
- Battles with enemies will take into account front/back/left/right positioning. Haven’t thought about elevation effects
- Characters will not age, however, you will be able to change your hairstyle
- Deterioration of weapons may be reflected graphically as well
