FFXI crossover event comming to FFXIV

[peculiar]

I know several of self respecting XI players, that still play XI, that would and do play XIV. To sugggest that one is less of a person or something because they like something you personally don't like is insulting to say the least.

ffxiv is a 95% clone of wow, why would a long time ffxi player want to play a shallow and poor copy of wow?

The most important features from this game are all missing in xiv, the only plus it has are graphics related. The only claim to fame it has are the graphics, xi players who have stuck with this game this long are simply going to hate what xiv is.

If they wanted to play wow they would of played it a long time ago. Every xi player I know who went to xiv hates it and endlessly complains about how bad it is, they only stick around because this game is near dead now and there is nothing else at all that they want to play.

The only time I play and resub back to xiv is right after a new patch, never any other time. It's just a shallow mess and it always will be, the constant gear treadmill sees to that.

You don't seem to get it so let me help you out, almost all of us have tried xiv and we don't like it.

Pfft, I played FFXI for 7 years, and I can tell you that the story and gameplay doesn't grab my attention like FFXIV does. I haven't unsubbed from FFXIV since September 2010. I've unsubbed more times on FFXI because I can't find the drive to play it. I've done more grinding on FFXI than FFXIV, and my jobs are higher and I've accomplished more on FFXIV, too. FFXI has a good story and so does FFXIV, but my character feels like more of a part of the story than I did on FFXI.
