So you're saying that because they didn't make this game an HD remake of FFXI they're ignoring and disrespecting everyone that played FFXI? See how ridiculous that sounds?

Why do things so often get put into one extreme or another?

They didn't ignore or disrespect FFXI players at all. Look at the races we play as. Look at the crabs, mandragoras, goblins, pugils, and more that we fight against. FFXI can be seen and heard all over this game.
