What changes would make you quit FFXIV?
Not all changes are to everyone's liking. And I know there has not been universal appeal for even the changes made so far.
So my question is what features of FFXIV are you attached to and would you quit if Yoshi cut them?
Things I don't want them to change/remove:
- Being able to equip any gear at any level
This would be a perfect system if the algorithm used to scale gear according to optimal rank actually worked or made itself more apparent. So far there seems to be the complaint that you can wear whatever and get away with it. So this system needs tweaking. But having said that, it is really important for a game where you can swap classes at any given time or if you just want to dress up. People who want to marry restrictions and rules seem to hate this system, but I so don't their point. Do you?
I don't get why they seem to be phasing this out with the job system. It seemed like the strongest feature of the game besides the graphics. Yet they are trying to downplay it or are at the very least under-utilising it now that the focus has changed to advanced-classes (which is basically what the jobs are).
I think this is one of the most important aspects of the game because it shows SE's commitment to community. An MMO shouldn't be about just doing content in a vacuum or only with your linkshell. It should be about the world at large, and contributing to that. In FFXIV crafters really earn a reputation for themselves if they are active members of society, and so does everyone else. It facilitates interactions between players. Especially at the beginning of the game when there was no search feature!
Oh wait, too late.
