After 7 years...

[Ilax]

Problem with XI is how SE made quest retard too hard at start, and people in general was just hunting a dream that never came true.

Abyssea was just WAY TOO EASY, even producer realize it now... It been the worse thing SE made.

VW is by far not like the game use to be in 2002... not even close, of course people will cry baby because when they trigger, they assume to get drop @ 95% (thanks Abyssea for that analogy). In fact you can spam VW 50 time per day if you want, and i am pretty sure you will get the item you looking for on the same day... Old content was 1 chance claim nidhogg every 3~7 day for a miserable 1% chance drop on best item. So comparing VW to old stuff is flawed by tons...

But yes, when i read relic/mythic need to get 1,000 item for last stage and NM they have to fight PW and Diabolos for 1x item, i am sorry but that is plain wrong.

I wont ever play 14, nor i will play any other GAME SE create in future, at least not till they prove me they can make a great MMO, something they failed since release of XI, and the next part just make it worse.

"Right now, we are at the beginning stages of this content, but as we go forward, we can make adjustments to respond to more casual playstyles," Tanaka promises. "If we set the difficulty low right from the start, everyone focuses on that content and quickly grows bored with it. Our style is to give the new content some bite at first, and then start to loosen up, little by little.

Translation: We will make the game a nightmare for hardcore player, then we will lower the difficulty stupid easy.

This is pure lack of respect for who care of the game. SE you could have made Empy weapon a good RIVAL for relic owner, but instead you made it BETTER and lowered difficulty on relic.... You could have release RIVAL gear for HNM gear, no... instead you made all HARDWORKED (6yr long) gear a piece of crap compared to abyssea gear.

I am sorry, but is all that kind of mistake that make your FAN hating you, and doubt any serious player would go play your lol-future game.

/hate off.
