Considering they've got 10 years of experience, tweaking and fixing this kind of issue in their previous mmo only to have to redo it all again because its completely messed up, im not impressed, they're just basically going back to where they were before, which is what they should of done in the first place. its the classic "Aint broke dont fix it" and this clearly wasnt broke (in XI) and some reason they wanted to fix it. And now they're going back.

But i 100% agree on the test server. it did TERA wonders and they managed to fix a lot and tweak the new instances

I love FF XI combat and i agree that they should have just implemented the same battle system from the beginning. However i also understand that we can not just keep reproducing things and new ideas need to be formed. The original FF XIV battle system was an attempt to create something new, a fail, but definitely a attempt at "revolutionizing" MMO battle systems.

FF XIV tried something new and failed miserably, i don't blame the developers for trying they just didn't listen to anything we said in beta... I feel that there is a lot more shady dealings going on in SE corporate structure rather than the developers.

This game was way to hushed at release and way to rushed for any developer to be proud. FF XIV is a victim of what many games are suffering from these days, greedy corporate pressure on the developers to meet unrealistic deadlines to fatten the share holders pockets.
