Oh ya I've seen plenty of people say they feel the game is going in that direction. I agree. I played Lotro also and am getting a similar vibe..lolQuote:

07-02-2016, 08:37 AMZaine_LionheartActually I know this person... and you really shouldnt go assuming things you clearly dont understand, the fact of the matter is what Iromi says is true and ill back it 150%. Just because you dont know how to balance your priorities doesnt mean this game is perfect as is, I like the game but it has a lot of work that is neededQuote:

That's thanks to Bravely Default (with Akihiko Yoshida as designer, same 1.0 had) which sold -a lot-, showing SE the right way to keep.Quote:

I really hope those new vibes will reach FFXIV and/or the next FF online game. -
07-02-2016, 08:38 AMKeriiI feel like the real problem with 3.0 is that they hyped it up too much. "We want players to feel like it's a whole new game." However, that choice of words didn't reflect what we got. We got a slightly better version of 2.0. What SE has a problem with right now is execution. They have lofty goals of what the game "should be", but they've stopped factoring how players really are, and that's killed the game this expansion. Maybe 4.0 will be better, maybe it won't. In either event, I believe many people have your attitude. "I'll wait and see what they do, and if I don't like it I'm gone." That is the right attitude to have, but maybe we, as a community, are setting the game up for a big failure if the developers can't get their execution right out of the gate for this one.Quote:

That is the exact approach I am taking, maybe it will be good maybe not, and yeap...as of right now I am pretty uninterested in the direction the game is going so what more can I say :( If they hear us they hear us..if not then so be it!Quote:

But..last time he took it there a 100k drop, and even more so massive drop in who completed the story. Only 300k people completed the 3.2 story (I think that was last time he took it)Quote:

There's a good example why this game won't go F2P, but no way it'll be in good shoes either. -
07-02-2016, 08:53 AMBeetleI don't know about ftp. XIV team has sold out to outside 3rd parties more so then XI ever did in its 13 years.Quote:

07-02-2016, 09:13 AMvp_cmcActually, I've completed 3.2 story two days before 3.3. I don't really like reading those walls of text, and I had all 3.2 dungeons\trials unlocked without doing all 3.2 story to the end. Had to do it before 3.3 of course to not have my static wait for me for nidhogg.Quote:
