If SE put up one server of final fantasy 14 1.0 would you go back?

It's obvious you never touched it or you wouldn't keep repeating this. Those of us who actually did and enjoyed it and followed ARR's development remember pretty plain as day we were told things would be "fixed" rather than gutted and converted to the "WoW standard" which took out quite a lot of depth and character XIV had going for it. 1.0 was broken because it was unfinished, as in it was never completed for launch. 1.23 however? The version where subs doubled-tripled as per YoshiP's words? That version wasn't broken beyond the core server structure, which as SE themselves said (since you love reiterating that SE did soandso) was the main issue and the main reason for the reconstruction, so they can actually fix the core issues with XIV.

And you love reiterating things that Yoshi said without actually having a source. Have any for this one ?

Enkidoh said it in the previous page. Players had their chance to keep the servers up, they didn't grab it. Don't blame a company for wanting to get rid of a product that was leaking money.

I liked monsters having detection types, it really added a flavor to the game.. Sad they removed it. ;_;

Good times were had with people forgetting their oils and trying to sneak through tunnels just to end up training the whole place. Also, Blood Aggro made KRT monk party much more interesting and kept you on your toes.

Not sure if sarcasm or not. I don't think so..? lol :P

I had a lot of hilarious times in FFXI just managing that system. I liked the feeling of "preparing" to go out on an adventure. You thought of what you did before you did it, like playing Witcher on crazy hard mode - you don't go without crafting for the occasion lol, you prepared for every adventure (there are many games like that, just played modded hardcore difficulty witcher recently hyping up for 3.. its on my mind ^^).

Also since we are talking about it, I feel like there are a few monsters that still have types in ARR... I swear Ochus see from all directions (smell?). Specially the ones by Hawthorne hut or w.e in East Shroud, they turn around full 180 to spray all over me lol.

Nah, wasn't sarcasm. It was really hilarious to see people trying to be ninjas without oils just to die midway of the tunnels or people not refreshing powders when going to Aspid. KRT group was doing Merit Points on hard mode as well. One misstep with low HP and you had more than you can handle.
