Yeah, no wonder you didn't get a response. One of the main issues with FFXIV 1.x was its gameplay. And the prolem with the gamewplay was EXACTLY that it played too much like FFXI - An obsolete, outdated style of gameplay. The only people who liked FFXIV 1.0s gameplay was people who came from XI and found it familiar. Everybody else (the vast majority) hated it with a passion.Quote:

"Yoshi-P take a walk" in Aegis!

10-22-2016, 05:52 AMThayosHe probably did respond! But perhaps he has a back-end 1.x messaging tool, and you just haven't received his /tell yet because of the lag.Quote:
No wonder he didn't respond to you

10-22-2016, 05:53 AMAlexionSkylarkCome to think of it, it's not hard to imagine he just turned off /tells in his chat window.Quote:

IS it wrong to say if you miss XI then go play it? It's not like it's gone like 1.0 and really? If 1.0 was so good why did it die? I never understand people wanting games or whatever back when noone played/listened/watched it when it was there. But that looks like a cool event, lag must have been insane tho.

I've sent him a /tell: "Mr.Yoshi please make FFXIV more like FFXIV 1.2x/FFXI, less like WOW {Thank You}!"
lol forgive me...
I can't imagine why.Quote:
All he did was queue a dungeon, finish it then queue again....
he didn't talk with us
How incredibly rude, I wouldn't want to log on to meet players either if this were the sort of thing I was greeted with. -
10-22-2016, 06:09 AMAlexionSkylarkCan't stress this enough. This 100% can be read like "Hey, you know the CORE of your idea to revamp FFXIV? the very thing that saved this game? I hated it, plz change it back"Quote:

I'm assuming he probably got an insane amount of /Tell messages, enough that he probably wouldn't respond to any in detail...if at all. Still, it's pretty cool some people got to chat/dungeon with him. It's pretty rad to hang out with a director of a game like that, especially considering how busy all of them are working on the new expansion. It's sometimes the fun, little things that can really mean the most to players.Quote:

Some (such as myself) prefer the more movement/mechanic heavy combat of ARR, others prefer the slower-paced combat of FFXI. Let's just leave it at that. :) -
10-22-2016, 06:10 AMZigabarThere's even a private server my SO plays that is a replica of pre-whatever expansion "killed" the game with no usual private server buffs. (Disclaimer: I never played XI. That is more or less my SO's words that didn't sound like garble to me.)Quote:
