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.
