To ALL the people that Say ARR is Dying!

Can not compare XI to XIV, they are two different games. Honestly the easier a game is the sooner it will fade away, its challenge players want without challenge there is nothing to keep players interested.

Some stuff in this game is too easy like getting 4 pieces of relic handed to me after I talked to 4 NPCs, but there is challenging content in the game. Also I don't think you can really judge the games overall difficulty on content that will be midlevel content after a few cap increases. XI changed a lot for the player once you reached 75 and had real endgame events and HNMs to play around with.

Anyone looking for something else to do and want a challenge. Make your own set of rules and live by them.

For this to happen I'd need to be either paid, or all my other games must be deleted.

If i remember rightly during beta testing people were whining about the content being to hard,there were countless arguments about this on the beta forums.SE gave people what they wanted at the end of the day and now ya'll whining its to easy and not challenging enough LOL.

I feel sorry for the devs i really do,and i hardly see the game dying tbh most areas are packed especially on my server anyhow

No, most beta testers agree that the game was too easy. One guy made a post about the level 15 storyline quest being too hard.

Greedy? I suppose them doing 1.0 free for a year losing a lot of money ( paying employees, Keeping 1.0 servers up, making content *costs a lot of money*) all without get money. TBH with you, they gave more than received, to say they are greedy at this point is wrong on all accounts.

Without them making money, the game won't last at all. That's the honest truth.

The subscriptions from FFXI paid the cost of the servers for both game and the rebuild of XIV.

The trick from XIV is Myth Caps.
If we removed the caps, everyone would had their gear and left.

Not if SE reduce the myth drop to 1-5% at the same time.

They are lucky they had FFXI to supply that.. They still lost money regardless.

I agree. While they didn't go into the red due to XIV thanks to XI's subs, it did definitely eat into the profit margins. I think I need to buy Stock in SE.

Yup that fight was a bit hard.

Ya know, i really like your sig, but i have to disagree. If people are too stupid to use antidote, then they shouldnt be allowed to continue with the story.
