Bring Back the Soul To FFXIV:ARR

[Garlyle]

There's some things that are good about XI and that I would like to see come into XIV in some form or another, but not everything that was in XI has necessarily stood the test of time - if it was even a good idea in the first place. Scrolls are part of that latter set.

Let's add the 18-56h lottery pop HNM with the very best of equipment at 0.2% drop.
I'm sure people that are currently raging at atmas farm and waiting 5h for the right fate to pop would greatly enjoy such novelties

NMs like XIV 1.0 had please!

I remember those mega parties trying to down those massive beasts! It was awesome.

I'd like to see more meaningful impact from the weather effects. Like for example certain drops that happen from X mobs during the rain.
Also ferry rides with stuff to do on the ship like fishing competitions and fighting pirates!

I notice that there seems to be a theme in these sorts of threads that amount to 'bring back everything to do from 1.0'

Yes, we need a touristic class for the ferry.
Express class is good and nice, but sometimes you want to travel slow, fell the sea air on your skin and fishing a bit while on the ferry.

1.0 failure it's because it was an unfinished game, & the copy & paste maps.
if more contents were added to 1.23, it will be a better MMO than XIV 2.0.

2.0 has a lot more contents (raids, bosses,dungeons),but player already got bored of it. that's the problem

Actually, it failed because it sucked, plain and simple.

i hate how every time someone mentions ffxi-2 everyone gets butthurt. why the hell not you guys allready got wow1 (wow), wow2 (rift), wow3 (runes of magic), wow4 (aion), wow5 (ffxiv) and so on. why the hell cant we just get a traditional final fantasy xi-2?

as for the op
what would i add to the game? gasoline and a match

Call FFXIV a Lobby Game.
Want NM's.

I don't get it. In one game you can run around and do other things while you wait for a queue, in the other you stand for 4 hours doing nothing only to lose to a claim bot. HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

[SavageWolf]

maybe have the Dev's Listen to us for once.

I stopped reading here. You're blind as hell.

[Amberion]

only to lose to a claim bot

RMT and bots where sort of easy to beat. At least at the start and later on when they added that random duration before NMs could be claimed.

Some of my best time in FFXI was traveling around and tacking pictures of NMs before killing them, or dying while trying.
