Lets face it.

Someone has a funny definition of Truth me thinks. Where I am from, truth is based on facts and not on speculation.

I don't really play FFXIV for PvP (or FFXI back then). There are better options for it. Will FFXIV have good PvP? Probably not--but it's too soon to say so definitively. If you want PvP, go play GW 2 or something. I just don't think pvp content has ever been a Square thing. I remember playing Ehrgeiz back in the day--that was a mess.

I think a lot of the comments about PvP are good predictions and, if true, probably wouldn't appeal to those people looking for PvP to save the FFXIV experience for them. But I just don't understand these threads... oh well. It passes the time on slow days at work :P

Population after this months subsciption is going to dramatically drop, So at 17th december 2.1 patch arrives. Everyone that's saying the content is going backwards IS saying the TRUTH. They will enjoy as much(Including me) as they can the first week before their subscription ends, get a taste of it , see that its new and exciting but other than that nothing else 10 days is more than enought to explore all new content that 2.1 brings. I hate to say it but the people who maybe leaving the game will be a LARGE number.

Goodbye, don't let the door hit your ass on the way out. It's a very heavy door, and we honestly don't want your rear imprinting on it.

Even if 1/3 of the player base leaves, the game will still be in its Success numbers of above 400,000 so your Doomsaying and whining doesn't matter. Only about 5% of the player base is actually on end-game (and that's including the Legacy players into that 5%).

Producer himself said no successful MMORPG can go without PvP as it generally accounts for 20% of the player base. And yes instanced set fights is still "PvP" by definition... so I don't understand how you get off saying there is no PvP. We aren't asking for Aion style PvP.

He obviously has never played 11 which no even plays the pvp and 11 has been going strong, so saying a mmo is only successful with pvp is a joke.

Yeah... sorry, but no. I'm calling bull shit on that one unless you got numbers to prove as you claim?

[KoujiGeki]

Oh wow so how's the beta going?

its going like everything else is.

And how exactly do you plan to clear all extreme primals so fast? I guess that you finished coil T5 already so HM dungeons and CT wont be problem for you (for me neither).

well since EM are confirmed story plot, it wont be that hard less all the casual complain. So it wont be nearly as hard as 1.0 ifrit, it will maybe be as hard as 1.0 Ifrit HM.
