I mean lets took a look at FFXIV and FFXI similarites.

Graphics Style
Races
Music Style
Magic's
The whole feel before even picking up the game if you every played FFXI felt as if you were going to get a FFXI upgrade with a whole new world to explore. . . .Instead you got something that is way to inventive and fresh in alot of wrong ways.

DUDE. For the last and final time. yes people were expecting a FF11-2 BUT not a copy/paste of the same freakin game. People were expecting it to be LIKE FF11 by adopting everything that made 11 great and turned it into something amazing/exciting/new TWISTING the very fibers of FF11's being further enhancing it's beauty and giving us a hole new awesome experience to build upon but they were incredibly misleading and it turned out to be NOTHING like 11 and NOTHING like any other MMO out there and that's why it is in it's current state... dude.

And once again... to some it up... FF14 needed FF11's structure. They could have done SO MUCH MORE with FF11 and that's where FF14 was supposed to come into place but that did not happen.

We must have gotten the concept of FFXI-2 from two places with different views. I agree with what you said but when I learned about a "FFXI-2" it was a copy/paste design with a graphical upgrade. Which I am completely against.

Actually most the people I know on FFXI were hoping for an FFXI-2 the others that weren't from FFXI didn't know what to expect. Final Fantasy has always been a party based game. FFXIV is straying away from this.

FFXIV should be party based but not as strict. Where If I want the best way to level I would get a party. However, If I don't have time I can still make some progress. Which is one thing I thought they were aiming for.

I agree. I would like to have like partying is the best option but you could still solo to progress as well.

DarkRain That was Awesome. Seeing those videos makes me ask myself why am I not playing FFXI. Come on guys look at the mechanics. I could totally read the log and all other text without expanding the video to full screen. In 4 months this game will have been released for a year. In no way this game will be where FFXI was at on opening day. I really want FFXIV to work.

PS3 is a controller based system. It will not work as the game is and will have a large disadvantage to PC users. SE will have to address not just having a game on 2 platforms but a communication application that will work on 2 platforms. PC users use Ventrilo, Team Speak or even Skype. Sony and SE should work a deal with Logitech to bring back the Netplay Controller/Keyboard and also have it set up to work on 2 platforms. I read many people saying they think the major change of new content, new areas, and new jobs will come to help boost PS3’s release. I can’t see that happening anytime soon.

As you can see by my signature I am knee deep in FFXIV. I really want it to work. I believe all of your ideas, suggestions and disappointments will be read in due time. I also believe this is the reason for this forum.

where are ppl getting "rushed" or "listen to players" from

PC TECH ISSUE PREVENTING MOST OF THE CONTENT FROM GETTING INTO THE GAME IT WASN'T RUSHED. read up the old beta news stuff that fan sites posts. Sorry but yalls personal opinion isn't fact.

also add the fact that a good 40% of beta time was infact canceled due to these issues. And even had a letter saying we did listen to you, but the bugs must come first.

i hated ffxi combat system. I was happy the day i found out ffxiv was not gonna have auto attack. the targeting was good, drops were horrific as were nm times. I saw jegged ear jack a good 2 times in 6 years. And my main town was always sandy. AH system like ffxi was ok as long as its 1 huge multi city 1. and not sectioned off 1 for each city.

Other then that I would like a new game, not something i need hundreds of times.

This is incredibly hard to balance. it's either make a party based game or a solo based MMO. WHy make an MMO soloable... isnt that an Off Line RPGs place?

I think that people are confusing a lack of content with a deliberate design choice.

I'm pretty sure (or at least hoping) they didnt go: WELP WE DONT NEED TO PUT ANYTHING IN THE GAME FOR PLAYERS TO DO BECAUSE WE HAD THINGS TO DO IN XI.

TERAs Auction House system is amazing. 1 AH for the entire server no matter the location. You can place a bid or buy it now and there is no AH history. TERA took the better aspect out of all MMOs. They implemented the buy it now which is what everyone was doing in shout Aion. Pretty damn good idea to put that in a new game. And it works.

40% on my K-TERA DOWNLOAD WOOOT!
