FFXI crossover event comming to FFXIV

[Raydeus]

Anyway, come and play FFXI, you spend too much time around here, it's bad for your nerves.

Better send him to XIV, last thing XI players probably want is a XIV apologist preaching to them non-freaking-stop. <_<

This comment is rude and insulting. More proof that players aren't allowed to enjoy both games. I enjoy XI with a great linkshell full of friendly people, thank you very much. Why am I not allowed to also like something you don't like?

Sad how this thread had to turn into a bunch of baseless personal attacks and hating for the sake of hating.

I think they plan to move all DEV's off FFXI at the end. I wouldn't doubt they will take Matsui and bring him to the XIV team, kinda feel annoyed on that but maybe he will do them some good.

Multiple people have played FFXIV here that are criticizing it, have you not read that already?

The same people posting the same complaints that take 2 seconds to Google (to find) you mean? Claiming you played something and actually playing it are two different things.

So you're admitting that all the criticism found here about FFXIV is easily found on Google?
"That's hilarious"

Yes, about the game at launch, imagine the criticism FFXI would get if we did the same.

I'm kind of baffled on this contment. All the criticism, and all the praise, can all of course be found on google, because these forums and others are all indexed by it. What's your point?

And there are also those who have played it and have enjoyed it. My issue is with those that haven't played it that hate on it purely because it's a thing. I never asked for everyone to like everything. but I shouldn't, as a fan of both games, be berated for liking XIV and being upset at the biased comparisons that have been put forth in this thread and others.

For me FFXIV is pretty but has no soul.

FFXIV isn't a living organism and can't have a soul, nor can FFXI. Before you go *whoosh*, yes, I know what you really meant. I don't really agree with that, I think it's a beautifully crafted world, every NPC has a personality, there's an enjoyable story being told; I feel like the world feels just as "alive" as Vana'diel.

Crafting

What you say has historically been true, but that's about to change. Crafted items are going to be made more powerful and most equipment that has historically been non-convertible/non-meldable will now be able to be melded/converted, which will make crafters a more valued part of the world and give players more equipment options at any given level.

One of the guys linked his profile man... it's not like its some special club that only a few can join. I'm sure by now many have tried XIV and formed their opinions.

And a lot have let others form their opinions for them, or have decided to jump on the bandwagon, people like a moan and rarely is having any knowledge in the subject necessary to do so.
