Let's go back to 2 - 2.5k per hour parties. Everyone will surely enjoy the 560 to 700 hours of xping to get a single job from 75 to 99. Or we could play though what, 10 rpgs?

This isn't my topic, if you haven't noticed (Anyone with an inkling of intelligence can see that). I'm just the one that refuses to let it die, because that's exactly what you want, and if you were smart about it you'd let it go and stop replying. All you're doing at this point is arguing subjectivity and keeping the thread on top where the devs can see it.

Of course listening to me is destructive. See "subjective".

This is my intention, to show people this >>

I can make a solution. Get rid of Abyssea and auto-repeat book pages. Take it back to the way it was. Happy? And no, I won't stop. Sorry.

Wow, WTF.. Either way win win.

A simple way to explain it. FFXIV and FFXI are different games. I have never experienced FFXIV, however looking at that post you directed us to it seems as if partly why they wish it changed is due to small amounts of endgame content or not much being added. 2.0 is likely the reason for this so their request does make some sense, if they are stuck with small amounts of content then at least draw it out a lil that way they can have something to do till 2.0. Now this is not the same as FFXI, here we have alot of endgame. We have Abyssea, we have Voidwatch, we have Neo-Dynamis/Nyzul/Limbus/Einherjar/(soon to be)Salvage, we have Legion. There is some I didn't list as well, some you can arguably call endgame or not such as PW, AV, and even Kirin. We have endgame, lots of it, a new expansion even focused on endgame. We are not suffering the same thing, and its not the same game.

Your point you tried to make by that is pointless in my opinion. However I will agree in 1 aspect of it, likes do matter. Not nearly as much as they could, because yes, some people will blindly "like" a post, but alot of cases, it shows how many people agree with you. In this thread, you have 6 Likes on post 1, which was presenting the same idea you are fighting for, and there is post 3 with 31 Likes, which was against the idea you & the OP seem to share. Now if it were 6 and 7, or 30 and 33, I might say you have some even ground, or blind likes could effect it. But your talking 6 vs 30, 5 times more people agree that they want a dislike button for this idea, than the amount of people who like the idea.

Sarick you may as well just give up. There's no sense in arguing with a child or an adult with a child's intellect (whichever the case may be).

Different games with the same problem. You have the people that liked this game for what it was circa 2005 that jumped into XIV expecting the same, and instead what they got was FFXI 2012. They don't like it. Add up the 119 likes in that post versus all those likes you account for in your second paragraph. You said all you had to say about the subject when you said, "I've never played 14". Therefore, you have no opinion about 14.

Oh, I guess I'm a child now because I can hold a debate without tossing out insults? Absurd.

Bad game design is never a solution. Never.

Funny how this worked out for FFXI for 10 years didn't it? Notice how people will gladly say x, y, z is bad about FFXI..yet here we are 10 years later.

Where did I say it was you? Thanks for proving my point

I'm sorry, are you trying to be taken seriously here? This is a moronic idea.

You still don't seem to get it, the option to party exactly in this fashion still exists. Go do it and stop bothering the rest of us, will you?

It's okay, you can come out and say it. Don't be afraid. It's not like there were 20 others in the major minority in this thread the last 10 pages.
