I dislike WoW, but There are some things I would love from the game into FFXIV! Example being the UI system, WoW's UI is one of the best out there and putting that into FFXIV won't affect the Story/Music/Areas etc at all. Not even in the slightest.

I don't call things like "WoW-clone" because my term of Clone varies from how others see the word clone. ( But I won't get into that lol). In anyrate, based on Alpha players reactions ( I wasn't one of them just so you know), it seems like ARR is going to be awesome, but it's still a long road ahead. So lets continue to give SE our support for a game we want to succeed! :D

Who knows, maybe all of this will be more clear once beta comes out!
But based on the MMOs I have played, including wow, ffxi, ffxiv starwars and rift ARR seems to be more like the wow clones than a "clone" of ffxi

Don't judge a book by its cover, and I too saw LIVE alpha footage, and I didn't feel the "wowish" graphics, I thought they were spectacular.

OMG IT'S THE WOW~PURPLE!! WERE DOOMED!!! I blame Dalamud for this!

Yes, I mentioned that. Some of the fights in wow were awesome and very very dynamic unlike in 11. I guess I am just a a bit concerned. Rift for example, look promising, but I never really got convinced. I do hope that ARR becomes awesome and unique.

To me, FFXIV ARR graphics look more an unique than other MMOs like I looked at XI screenshots assumed that it's XI.

Myself, I let them whining until they try BETA, if they keep whining then there is something mods could do. lol
There's no reason to blame that it's not XI-2 and hell I prefer to see something is completely new and not copying BCNM/SEA/SKY/ZNM/etc since FFXI is designed mostly for 56Kbps users back in 2002 with PS2 limitations.

Well, it's just one person so far. Give it a minute. And this isn't the only time people have called this game a WoW clone. I mean, people just throw those words around. I wish those words were outlawed, so anyone who said those words together were drawn and quartered.

We all want the best for FFXIV or we wouldn't be here. But I thought your post was nice to say.

I just hope they "whine" for the right reasons.

The first thing that came to mind when I saw that picture was. What is going on in that monitor?

I was actually interested in finding out what kind of content Rukkirii was playing. WoW never crossed my mind until I kept reading the pages of this thread lol.
