A remake of a zone that we loved in FFXI ?

Get a grip, it's only a forum. Control your emotions.

Anyway, how do you guys think the artists feel that you don't appreciate their creativity enough to design something new. FFXIV has potential to be better than FFXI but that can't happen if you keep clutching at FFXI for nostalgia's sake, afraid to let go.

Get a grip? My point was you were the one slamming someone else despite your track record and a lot of hostility towards others, case in point, this.

The artists probably don't care because, as you said, it's only a forum. Besides, who says people can't appreciate the new whilst also liking what they've done before and wanting to see more of it?

Edit: I don't understand this mentality of 'You like x, go play x'? It's only natural that games incorporate from other areas, FFXIV is going to be unique in its own right in the end anyway.
I liked the designs of certain areas in FFXI because they captured a mood really nicely, I liked the forests of Zi'Tah because they were eery and interesting, I liked Wajaom woodlands because it had vibrant colour and looked really unique. Would I like those traits carried over new areas? Sure! Am I living in the past because of it? I wouldn't say so!
