95 And Below RME Weapons

[Sarick]

Nice idea except it has 0 to do with updating 75-95 R/E/M. I wouldn't mind expanding on old content as long as it has a story behind it instead of just "here's 2.0 with monsters you've seen before".

That's where the the problem is and it does fit in with upgrading RMEs. If content is available for it then items can be upgraded there. The limits are there because the direction is set in arrogance that makes blind players follow a narrow path. There are a few that do stray but not many have the capacity to enjoy the plate of spinach the host is trying to make them eat. To some eating spinach would be considered a punishment that's exactly why things are broken.

The shallow views of what could be and that majority don't seem think in a broad perspective. It's the same vision that clouds the developers. I've explained a few things already multiple times as have others. Most players can't grasp the concepts I laid out because either no one wants to listen to reason or it's beyond their understanding. It's like trying to explain moral decency to a mass murderer. I'm very sorry, I had to say that but that's the jest of most of these spin arguments.

People aren't the same and every gamer plays differently especially on a large MMO. If you and/or the developers can't understand these differences it will eat away until nothing is left. It's like a car manufacture that decides all cars from this point on only come in black. The customer can suffer buying the black version, repaint the black version another color after they buy it or choose another manufacturer.

Yeah the start button is why people didn't like windows 8... Might want to actually look into the technical issues with 8 because there are many more reasons that have a bigger impact on PC users before you even have to worry about "where's my start button".

Still, this was one of the factors that hurt productivity in businesses. Software wise most of these issues where caused by incompatibilities with the new interface and API changes. The point I was trying to make isn't the exact reason for the issues it's the fact that the company didn't see what was wrong until it started hurting them enough. That's the whole point. If you look at the news on Xbox One they still haven't learned their lesson. The reviews and gamer hate is turning customers away from them. This is why it's important to think ahead and consider WHAT IF.

Read this quote it's explains some of what I've been saying.

Then they released Abyssea and the entire game changed in a short amount of time, everyone got used to this new way of playing. You could shout for people and do content that was genuinly fun instead of punbishing and you didn't get left out if you weren't in the specific linkshells. You didn't have to get DKP and you didn't have to keep doing the content for years after getting your gear to get the rest of your group theirs, guilt trips were a thing of the past.

They saw people liked it but they saw that people ate through that content a lot faster, so they decided to go back to the old ways and ignore what people found enjoyable.

The player numbers are around half what they were from Abyssea times and this is just after a new expansion. Biggest problem with SE is simply that they don't ever learn from their mistakes and they will stubbornly stick with what isn't working, even if it kills the game. I guess they don't really mind that anyway anymore because they want us all to move to the horror of WoWish XIV anyway.

For the sake of argument WHAT IF the developers went back to what attracted the most players and there was a surge of popularity? I'm not talking about this farce of a new expansion. Would it really be so bad if people are F'n happy doing what they enjoy instead of what another envisions? Maybe some have already come to the conclusion that this game is dead and nothing will save its future. Two words "TUNNEL VISION" it's a cancer that can destroy anything.

I'm sick of hearing from apologist despite the glaring flaws. Some of these players lack the understanding to see the facts or could simply be shills who've over invested their lives into this MMO.
