It's become a chore to even log on to the game

Hey, I'm just saying the truth. You don't want to play this game. You want a different game. Instead of mewling about how you want this game to fit your desires, go make one or find one that suits your tastes is all I'm trying to say.

That's simply not true, the only change I said should be implemented was one that has been in *every single Final Fantasy game to date* one that not only adds dynamics on a per-battle basis, but just makes sense. (Elemental Affinities)

Mind not making false quotes from me either?

I said multiple times there's a balance to be found amonst many different playstyles.

And like I said, they took out elemental weaknesses to balance it. By all means, spell it out here how you would 'fix' what the devs couldn't without essentially scrapping the game as is and prevent situations where class stacking blackmages wouldn't be the smartest way to go.

I actually gave some examples of how they could do this...

Give each class a piece of the puzzle - Summoners have their summons, Black Mages have spells, Bard has their songs, Monk has the 'Fists of', & I'm positive Dragoon could be implemented as well.

All together they'd do better against elemental foes, but without, it's not gamebreaking, but you would be at a disadvantage.
This could not only inspire more diversity, but also more use of Party Finder and local parties


Edit: I hate to break it to you, but most of the games balance has been by fan complaints and not by the developers.
My main job WAR, being a fine example.

No, no you didn't. Complaining about stuff and saying 'but this way is better because I like it more!' isn't saying how you would 'fix' it.

Unless you mean this gem:

This is exactly my point, they should scrap it in it's entirety.

Yeahhhh. You just want a different game.

I kinda did, I think on Page 9?

Yeah... /tenchar

Yeah... /tenchar

Scrapping the entire game AKA A Realm Reborn is entirely different from scrapping a flawed and entirely non-essential feature.

I'm all for some intelligent discussion, but when people make up quotes for you and start taking your quotes out of context it gets out of hand.

Notice how I gave those very same examples? The elemental affinities in this game *DO* need scraping, they're there for no reason whatsoever, beating a dead horse with this one, but, you should not be able to kill Ifrit with fire spells.
