Player's Poll: FFXIV or FFXI-2?

[Zaaku]

Alright time for a honest calculation (Of those who visit the forums at least) of how players feel about what this game is shaping into. I am tired of hearing the excuse that this generation of MMO's *has* to casualize to work. I'm curious to see how many of their paying players right now agree.

Like this post if you wish for

~A return to longer EXP requirements. (3+ months per Job at the low end)
~More difficult enemies (Party focuses on a single target instead of 4)
~EXP penalty for Death
~Level capped instances (If you want to do content at a lower level you can't blam through it with a 50)
~Return to the basic job/subjob system and Iconic names
~More Job utility outside of combat (Whm teles, Blm Warp II, Thf treasure Hunter, ect)
~Auction Houses and centralized markets which can be access from a primary city (We don't quite have a Jueno but we will soon I imagine)


More importantly. These highlight examples aside. Do you want the Devs to create a game that will truly challenge the player base? That forces close bonds with friends and makes every day you play memorable? To stop creating in shortcuts for those unwilling to put in the effort?

Like this post if you like how the game is now

~Very fast leveling (Can literally cap a job inside of a week)
~Mob clusters of weaker enemies (Which forces PT's into a mobile set up and breaks the Puller mode)
~Gil Penality only for Deaths (Which is so inflated it hardly even matters)
~Current Job system and the ablity to change on the fly instead of being requried to head to a Moogle (Meaning all new jobs will be released as Basic->Advanced version with Classic FF names being the work too)
~Lack of distingiveness between Jobs outside of combat. (This also ties into the retention of the Anima system Vs. Whm Teleport bartering)
~Market Ward system as it lays

Or do you enjoy the state we're in now and the ablity to just 'jump' in and start doing endgame within a month? Each new expansion will be consumed and conquered inside of a few days and the only thing left to you will be endless raid runs and .001% drop rates.

People already said leveling is too fast, they also have stated they want longer fights as well.

Like this post if you are tired of the same thing over and over again and think that the dev probably don't care either abouts this type of threads.

Game is fine. @Rokien sure people said levelling is fast and want longer fights, but guess what, people also said its fine! Who do we listen to =)

[Jinko]

This is exactly the problem we face right now. No one has a clue as to how many people want either option. This thread will at least give us a rough estimate.

Like this post if you think the OP is asking loaded questions and just generally trolling.

And what about people who don't want either. ? (or some from each)

The problem with polls that are so black and white as yours is that there is no way to tell who wants what.
The way you structure a poll is you ask individually questions such as.

Q1 You would rather :-
A:- ~ longer EXP requirements. (3+ months per Job at the low end)
B:- ~Very fast leveling (Can literally cap a job inside of a week)

Q2 Would you prefer:-
A:- ~More difficult enemies (Party focuses on a single target instead of 4)
B:-~Mob clusters of weaker enemies (Which forces PT's into a mobile set up and breaks the Puller mode)
