As well as share similar mechanics. Even now they're bringing back the sphere grid system for the latest incarnations of FF games. So mechanically, XIV should have taken what works and enhanced them, just like Megaman games. Remember when sliding was introduced and pretty much changed the whole game? XIV could have done that but instead its been well known and mocked to being a giant step back from XI in almost every way but the class system, and even that still has holes in it.
