    FFXIV is bringing in people from all different places though so it won't just be elitists playing like FFXI is becoming, you'll have much greater choice of who to team up with. Also it would be likely that a lot of the old FFXI players who quit in the past few years will be joining XIV so it'll be more like the old days of XI just with different gameplay (although it's not as different as I first thought it would be). If you're getting bored of XI I would highly recommend trying XIV, it has great potential.

    Personally, the way SE ignores the Non-Japanese player base, I feel they'll ignore us in 14 as well. I'm thinking it might be nice to try an MMO that tries to appeal to all.

    Problem is.. you can never please everybody, and (often) the more you try the worse you make the situation for the exact same people you were trying to impress

    As I stand looking out from my mog house window, I reminisce about the old days and the many ups and downs of my adventures throughout Vana'diel.

    It is then that I know achievement.

    I don't want them to try to impress all. It's just obvious they don't care about what non-Japanese think. They ask for opinions, then never seem to listen. Look at the front page and how many comments are on Japanese threads vs. non-Japanese threads. They have polls for things like beast pets, and only the Japanese votes seem to matter, etc.

    I've loved the game and don't regret the time I've played, but I'm tired of feeling ignored, and more tired of feeling like they are ruining this game hoping to force us to 14. Just feeling like a fresh start, not restarting with more of the same bias.

    News flash : Care Not Given!

    FFXIV - Not XI 2.0 HD remaster.

    No gear swapping, No auto-attack-gear swap-tp-care. With the vanity tab(Costume), you see what players want you to see.. Is that PLD wearing clouds getup from ff7?....its hiding his armour! I could go on about why nobody will care for elitist ppl but just read the beta forums and you'll see..

    In XIV, that will mean that they're NA- and EU-centric servers will depopulate, and S-E will be driven to respond one way or another.

    Nothing in the above post is intended to disparage Square Enix or FINAL FANTASY XI, or to criticize Square Enix staff; such behavior would be a violation of the FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement. Any such violations of the FINAL FANTASY XI User Agreement should be reported to Square Enix immediately, by using the "Report Post" icon in the bottom-left of forum posts.

    Believe me, i tried. Everquest 1, 2. WoW, Guild Wars 2, SWTOR, Darkfall, Rift, TERA, DCUO, City of Heroes, Age of Conan, Tabula Rasa, FFXIV, and dozens of F2P ones from korea/china/whatever.

    Nothing ever came close to FF11. I tried another MMORPG to call home for 9 years. Best i managed was wow for 3 months.

    People prefer grinding, because short of Matamata, all the bosses require some level of coordination that anyone can mess up. (Easy for 10 good players can become a nightmare for 17 good players and 1 bad player.). A person could actually screw up matamata if they were determined.

    1 bad player can screw up delve farms too, but it almost takes effort to do that.

    This actually made me laugh. I remember the uproar when a hippogryph was selected even though scorpion polled higher. And yet, Falcorr is like 99% of the pets I see bst running around with.

    I'm sure they seen the ff14 forums and the 300k plus post in the general area of NA area and all the positive feedback that it got going on and there like holy crap lol. ( I wish they would allow us FF11 players to read there posts over there with out having to read it from friends shared skype screens even if can not post anything until you got the ff14 beta or ff14 game register.), and how they on the beta have limited the amount of NA players do to the volume. FF14 got a global feel to it , Yes it might be missing some of the suff NA and South Korean mmos people are accostumed to, but it does got a great ff vibe and feels fresh in it own world.

    FF14 feeling like a classic game. One that we all be playing for years to come and be the game that get the japanese developers out of there funk and globalized some there awsome games.
