Anyone Else Feel Betrayed?

To OP, nope don't feel betrayed.

Simple and to the point.

NO.

I was expecting nothing from this game. All I knew was that 1.0 was widely considered a disaster, including by the producers themselves.

I am not feeling betrayed, I am feeling surprised and delighted.

They delivered on NO HYPE. Compare with the Guild Wars 2 mega-hype... and the result. :P

Even XI doesn't want to be XI anymore.

Oh, that's why with release of Abyssea and cap incraise sub numbers have been falling drastically. Right.

Now I don't begrudge the people who like this - I'm glad folks are enjoying the game. For me personally, I just feel like YP didn't totally deliver on what the people whom XIV was originally made for, fans of XI, wanted.

Sub numbers dropping can be attributed to the age of the game, theres no evidence that XI staying the way it was before will maintain its sub numbers perpetually.

I don't feel betrayed yoshi stated that progression and everything else was going to copy wow, he stated that years ago.
The buff you get for dying seems to be one of the worst decisions I've ever heard of in mmo history though.
I know it was in the story but it had minimal impact it was more for speeding up lvling which was fine

no, actually i'm quite happy...
they have told us they will try to bring a lot of content every 3 month, they are doing it!
they have told us that the game will be more accessible, it's the case!
they had promise the housing the 2.1, we did get it!
they had promise the vanity system for the 2.2, we have it!

until now, they have never betray them promise to us...

I don't know why people thought Square would ever try to create a successor to Final Fantasy XI without shutting down Final Fantasy XI.

It would be incredibly financially stupid for Square to make FFXIV more like FFXI. Their two products would start competing with each other! Currently, they are two very, very different games and as such are not fighting each other for customers.
