True. I think I did mention feeling grumpy about the whole issue in one of my previous posts, in which case I apologise for sounding as such.

Shooo shoo and let us play with our barbies and dreams. :P
In my dream, Im just about to finish blm relic and BAM SE introduces Mog bonanza, i win (YAY!) and bam! PLD relic and sword, now just to finish my blm! :D
LOL Yoshi has trolled hard.
Do we need all the personal attacks? Yes we all have our views, but some people are just spamming attacks, let's keep this a civil discussion, if you don't want us to keep one relic in ARR fine, we don't need comments like "Take a lesson in Manners 101 please" or "*LOLs in a corner at folks thinking they'll get to keep their relics*"
All you will accomplish with these comments is getting the thread nuked, we all have our views on this, but as with all threads with hugely differing opinions it turns into a flame war. Act like adults please (unless you really are 12 then act like your 12 by all means).
The good news for you then is that will likely be the forced rate in ARR - so you will know no difference.
But unless something wild comes out it really sounds like us 1.0 players got it in easy mode, I cant wait for the entitled elite and then the newbs are kicking our ass because they played it harder lol
want to talk about hard work it took me 8 months to get that crown and i was playing till i had to go to work get home play till sleep then rinse and repeat and as far as the relics go se reserves the right to modify the finial save at any time and another thought maybe the relics in 2.0 are totaly different and harder to get or the upgrade is even harder or may be they might follow the ff xi approch to the af wep and relic/mythic and one more thing we never got our af wep when they metioned it only relics so it maye be
I wouldn't complain about a free relic, it would be not be fair on the people who earned theirs however.
See: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/57231
We don't need duplicate threads about this.
If what Yoshi says can be taken for fact ARR will be harder then 1.0 in many aspects. Even the item system may have a "harder" average time - just a less frustrating design structure.
We really shouldn't be rewarded anymore - no one is thinking about how the 2.0 players will feel. Our characters are pretty much rigged in advantage.
And damn you leveled the slow way lol - though that way will probably be one of the only ways in ARR. You can easily get all characters to max in two weeks if you played as long as you said you had (using the efficent PL methods). Unless till I go to work means 20 mins.. lol
Pretty sure this thread came first lol. Besides we'll get one to derail and we will have two seperate thread topics :D
If they give us one relic we would still be able to obtain the others, so balance this view and it would be fair, also with the amount of people who have all relics (do they even exist) at least 99% of players would get the free relic which makes it fair.
I personally don't know anyone who is 8/8 on relics, so from what I can see everyone would be able to get one.
The only Reason they handed Stuff like that out, is the final save was allready. Keeping it would need another save and that would fuck a lot of people up. Not only those who "deserve" having it, also people who burnd their money to try tier IV quad-meld and shit, or just fucked around with making materia out of +3, triple melded gear and so on. Its a total slap in the face for almost everyone, kept those greedy guys which wants to keep the relic the found under their bed.
They will have their own server - for a time.
They may also join ours.
I never said anything about everybody is a winner. I said that 1.0 players are trying to feed themselves candy like a fat kid with twinkies. I like things that mean something, and I like equal opportunity (which is not everybody is a winner).
"I want it for free, I am special for playing the last few days defending the world from an endless spawn where I can one hit monsters with prayers (used to) and pray myself out of weakness."
Seriously.. your "sick of society" sentence is so convoluted and misused coming from the stand point you are giving.
Yoshi P.: "They're never happy are they...?"
We really do find the dumbest things to argue about on these forums.
I don't mind if its a gimp version with the same skin. I'll take it.
I would never accept a fully done relic but I dunno if I could turn down an "Unfinished (instert weapon here)" or the hamlet seals. :P
I plan on getting mine come ARR regardless if I can muster up the cash so i don't expect anything extra in ARR except even more fun.
I am just worried that someday the level cap will be raised over 50, then all these fancy relic weapons and other shiny things won't be as fancy or shiny.
idk i think letting the free relics carry over would be nice. one free relic for everyone isnt a slap in the face for anyone who earned it the hard way as they would be getting ANOTHER relic for free >_>
If they made stages of relic like in FFXI, and the reward for fighting the town was a stage 0 relic then fine. But players who earned the relic legitly should be quite a few stages higher (lets say stage 3), enough so that the time they spent to get their relics is also required by you to get within that same power. Players with 8/8 relics should then get a reward, like the ability to boost 1 relic a stage beyond what they had previously (stage 4?).
This would negate issue for 1.0 players who put in a lot of work. However adding more of these freebies still disgrace incoming 2.0 players as we got "easy mode". Also.. its just plain easy mode in general lol
We failed stopping Dalamud though > . > lol
And why would the Grand Companies reward relics, which are lore items of the OLD, unrelated to any kind of Grand Company? Gerolt is a complete drunkard, he wouldn't willingly create millions of relics for the Grand Companies just because they requested him to. ARR is a completely different game...so? How would that justify getting a CURRENT game's best weapons for free? Where is your justification for relics suck? There is no reason to make relics less than what they are.
And again, I ask - what is your stance and justification? Lore isn't a justification, it's an attempt to hide behind a mechanic to get what you want even though you don't deserve it. What have you done to deserve a relic weapon for free?
this thread is bad. and you all should feel bad.
Again my justification is SE offering one final Thank you for sticking around to the very end. One relic is not a slap in anyone's face because everyone will have the choice, if they offer a NPC to give current players relics in ARR and you CHOOSE not to take it, it's your fault and you have no reason to complain... Again this would be to ALL current players.
if you want relic in 2.0, earn it. drop the moaning entitlement. where does it end? free darklight? free 100million gil? free chocobo with 700% movement speed? a button you can push for whatever you want in the game, whenever you want it? lifetime of free play because you paid for a couple months of 1.0?
they've thanked us enough. legacy get a special chocobo and a fee discount in 2.0. we already have tokens to remember 1.0 by (even if you didn't get white ravens, there's still dalamud horn and goobbue, among other things).
free relics IS a slap in the face, and no amount of "no it isn't" posturing will change that. you try to argue it isn't because it would benefit you and people whom you perceive to be in a similar situation as you. how is it not a slap in the face of someone who's 7/7? or 6/7? or 4/7? or even 1/7?
these people spent tens and hundreds of millions of gil on those relics. what have you spent? these people spent tens and hundreds of hours grinding seals, grinding av/cc, grinding spiritbond, learning and mastering ifrit extreme. how much time have you spent?
giving people a CHOICE not to take it wouldn't change the fact that you people are being whiny, entitled crybabies about something completely ridiculous.
you want free, easy to get stuff? relic isn't for you. it was never for you. that's not what they designed it for. so don't even begin to try taking away from what it means to people whom they did design it for. pick up your grand company weapons and have a blast, and stop drenching the forum in your entitled tears.
first it was hamlet seals, then white ravens, and now relic. this is absolutely disgusting to see.
you people have absolutely no shame.
you want something in a game? grow a spine and work for it. whether it takes you a week to get it or a year, you'll get respect from your peers who understand what it took to achieve. asking for it for free because you can't be arsed and just want shinies without the effort? get out of here with that garbage. you deserve no respect. you deserve less than zero.
can't believe these threads are even happening. you lot should be ashamed of yourselves.
grow up.
not sure why this is still being discussed, it won't happen
if SE give you the weapons (all of them! lol) after the final save it's not for nothing
just play with them to kill the mobs in Uld'ah and if you like them, work your ass off in 2.0 to get it
there is really "but what if..." in this. It's all post save lol
