If SE put up one server of final fantasy 14 1.0 would you go back?

People need to get it through their heads that 1.0 is not 1.23 is not 2.0. They are basically three different games. 1.23 is as different from 1.0 as 2.0 is from 1.23.

1.0 was hemorrhaging money because it was broken. They fixed it, made it an enjoyable game, and then destroyed it. It is also pretty hard to make money when they don't charge people for it. They went months of f2p service during the patches leading up to 2.0. If they had released 2.0 with the 1.23 mechanics on stable servers, they would have had a quality game that people would pay to play.

I never got to try 1.0 so I'd at least check it out (now that I have a computer that could run it).

1.23b yes, only if they opened up all those unused dungeons and areas like The Fesse or Hengr's Crucible, which would never happen anyway.

I would not go back, but I would take XI with ARR graphics in a heartbeat lol. Not that there are not things I would get annoyed with, but overall I prefer that type of game over what ARR is.

most certainly would. Much better game than what we have now IMO.

I would, if only because I became interested in FFXIV while 1.0 was thriving. I missed the sign-up cut off by a frustrating 2 days, so I've only dealt with 2.0's version of Eorzea.

I want to see the stories of the city-states!

Hi, I never said anything was broken?

Just because YOU put words in my mouth doesn't mean I said it.

Don't straw man me. Also, do not imply that because I said something needs to be 'fixed' that that means I think its 'broken'. I can say..for example, my shirt needs to be fixed. It's not broken..it simply needs to be adjusted slightly so it is not so crooked, etc.

Thanks.

They did a poll at the end of FFXIV 1.0's life. The majority did not want the servers to remain open. As for me, nah.

There already is a poll for this, it was called the open market.

1.0 failing in the market while 2.0 has sold like hotcakes.

i prefer eat 1000 needle than replay 1.0... no thanks!
