I hope this game doesn't become like FFXI

The point of FFXI is to bore you to death. The challenge was staying awake.

Thank you Not only that,getting parties was a nightmare!!! I remember that one of my friend had a hard time to sleep and his real life was declining because of this game and on how it was demanding on players.

If FF XIV was like FF XI, All the FF XI playerbase would have moved to FF XIV by now, and the game would have the company earn Money. And the so bad elements of FF XI could be improved and then FF XIV would be a success by now in terms of gameplay, content, profit, and playerbase.

But ok. FF XIV was not FF XI. It was something Different. The results we all saw them.

And about how If FF XI was launched today would fail... Where do you base that? Because as far as i am aware of, When FF XI was released for Xbox 360 which is not far from today, the number of subscriptions was significantly increased.

Lol, if FFXIV was like FFXI, then SE would still have the same income. Nerdy FFXI players only.

If SE was like FF XI but a bit improved, it would have a rdy, steady playerbase allrdy. And as an improved FF XI it would attracts new gamers. Not weekend warriors.

FFXI was hard and it was ok for that time but soon dumbass wow came the challenge of mmo went to easy mode. But FFXIV right now is more casual then WoW,rift,aion. I sure don't want FFXIV to be just like FFXI but i do want the challenge that FFXI had to come to ffxiv we all can agree we can have a challenge and still be casual right?

So for the love of god when you talk about casual say you want it to be casual and have a challenge not just full on casual with no challenge at all.

I really hope that this game doesn't become like FFXI. I hate Final Fantasy XI with a passion!! That game was too hardcore!!!

Otherwise I quit this game for good!!!

this is where you are wrong, this game needs to be more like FFXI in some ways, when FFXIV started, they wanted to be so different from FFXI, they screwed it all up.... now they are fixing it, and as you can see, it is becoming more like FFXI every patch, and honestly to alot of us.... that is perfectly fine.

Reguardless of how you feel about FFXI, if this game would have taken a blue print from FFXI ( which they should have ) and created some unque ideas to their MMO, such as, Guild Leve System, soloable XP mobs, a brand new story line, quest hub camps, and a few others, this game would be a pay to play game with over 400k subscribers today. FFXI was a great game and I can only hope that this game moves more and more towards adopting more if it's core fundiments.

If they added everything ffxi have and then added FFXIV stuff and mix in a new battle system and class system this game would have 85% of FFXI players and new players for years and right now we wont be talking about it on here we be playing ffxiv lol.

I'm having a hard time ranking up to 50. I'm still at rank 32.....

Party with people. Leve link. This game still has a reason to not be anti-social.
