Except WoW actually handled content well once upon a time. You know rather than making interesting game play changes lets focus more on getting pet glamours because SMNs pets look ugly.

Sounds to me like Peria Chronicles, if we ever hear more about it, will be right up your alley. The entire structure of the game is designed around the idea of players creating their own maps, towns, and even quests that other players can complete for rewards. Again...if development ever continues. And since it's a Korean MMO good luck with us getting it even within a year after whenever it gets released there.

What's this? Did i miss something? Are we comparing this to WoW now?

Well let me tell you, this game will not sink so low to WoW's current level until they introduce another major patch that is dedicated to selfies and twitter.

They couldn't even give the patch an official name.

I said 'once upon a time' not now. Besides the game is basically WoW with some minor differences, So comparisons will always be made. It's a better game than current WoW but is it a better game than older WoW?

Yes lol wow had 0 creativity everyone ran around looking the same and the character models just plan ugly {it took them till 2015 to fix the models} Don't get me wrong wow is the grandfather of mmo games it had very good ideas and very fun events {run of the zombies or headless horse man} but what made it stick around was it's big ass world. ff is not as big by any means but has that spark that makes you wanna keep playing {or me at least} but can it keep it? who knows time will tell

How about classes, dungeons and raids? their design, scale, mechanics? how do these hold up in XIV by comparison? Visuals are irrelevant and a matter of preference.

7. Get another beer
8. Kill it, laugh with everyone, "have a great nite all"
9. Repeat.

The appearace of the characters was your only gripe?

It's a 10 year old game. That's like faulting FFXI for the same reason.

(And honestly the new character models are sort of a train wreck. Some turned out great, but others need serious facial adjustment)

It would be done for end game content rather than old game content. Imagine a hunt that is party restricted because you have the wanted poster - other parties can't attack it but you can and you can either form a party or decide to go after it solo. It would be designed for eight max but can be done from 1 to 8. Open world so no ring lines. That kind of thing which I understand is different.

so u want a boss leve? okay, u could have just said that instead of all those words

this is a p foolish statement. ur saying story-based games have no replay value and that's just false on its face
