Is there something wrong with talking about things you like? When did people become so hateful about absolutely everything? SE has no problems practically importing enemy models and other elements of XI, why not some of the best aspects of it as well? I've never played XI and it's way too outdated to even try, but it seems SE wants to copy a lot of their XI assets anyways, why not some other stuff as well?

Without having played XI and only having seen a few gameplay videos and talking to people who have played it, it almost seems like XIV is a fan made game. Someone who copied all of the assets of one game and just gave it a new story, mechanics and world, not unlike something like Skywind or or Morroblivion (importing Morrowind into the Skyrim and Oblivion engine).
