FFXIV Bitter Sweet

[Stargazer_Bleu]

Reading through some of these post I do agree with them for FF XIV.
It is a fun game, and I been enjoying it. Tho it seems like it does want to rush you to end level.

I also played FF XI for years, stopped shortly after the 99 cap.
Before abyessa, it really made you work together, even for lower levels.
This game lets you solo easy to the end,(with a few minor dungeons it seems) then makes you work for the end things.

There is no training for major things. In FF XI you really learned the job/class as you got closer to end game.
Even crafting seems a lot easier.
I do not get the grand feeling I did as from FF XI from starting at level 1 and earning my way up.
Or like the feeling when you got that emperian weapon finished(or at the lvl 75 version)

Tho I am curious as to what the earlier play styles of FF XIV were like.
I heard ver 1 had like job and weapon levels. Well I hope the feature big updates will add great stuff.

(Edit) Hope some of this makes sense. Got little sleep cause of neighbors blasting music all night/early morn

I stopped just before Abysea. It's a shame really I'd still be playing FFXI for a full 11 years if they hadn't completely changed it.. =/
