Really starting to get discouraged from playing.

hey no problem its understandable though for newer players to not know much about 1.0...shoot, it's almost nigh impossible to find skills, quests, anything about 1.x anymore, the only site I know of anymore is mozki-tabetai : http://ffxiv.mozk-tabetai.com/

Anyway, now ya know...and yeah us folks who have been at this wall that is end game are very bored..and eagerly and hopefully awaiting new variety content. Granted, I can't speak for everyone..but you know what I mean

Indeed, I only started playing during 2.0 beta. I am a SMN only player atm (another reason for my hesitation to join in 1.0) I have clocked about 2000 hours now. I dread to think the hours other players have put in though lol.

Ohhh that's right! Materia was implemented in one of the 1.0 patches right? I remember seeing a post about that way back when on some site. Though I notice that site you linked me lists some Materia's that are not in 2.0 on wards. There are some really good ones that would help make the current Materia system a lot more customizable.

IIRC combat rework was 1.16 (went from stamina spamming for tp for skills to just auto attacking for tp for skills on cooldown). Then 1.17 for job introduction (it was just classes before). Could be wrong on the patch numbering but I picked up the game again around there.

Yup! Materia came in the 1.x series...it was awesome Gave us lots of options and different gear sets for different fights and stuff! I really, really wish they would put it back in how it was Haha I am a SMN too...since alpha. ^^ I remember back then I kept asking everyday on the forums where is the SMN job..lol and then in the poll they gave us, the "pet type job (ie, SMN)" won and so here we are...although it doesn't really feel like a pet job to me but that is a whole different topic heh

I miss server side content. I dont know anyone on my server lol.. On ffxi i had friends and knew alot of people within months. A year and longer on this game, i barely know ppl in my fc. It sucks cause i feel like this game is suffering in the whole feeling like a part of your servers world aspect.

Right.... on top of people becoming completely unable to type even a Hello. Duty Finder is a very useful tool but it's also detrimental to the social aspect of MMOs... Why play MMOs at all if the social aspect of it is gone? Might as well just play offline solo games...

That's why in my other thread, I stated that this game is like Invinctus with a prettier shell. It's not even a true MMO because there's not much you can do with the rest of the server in the open world that affects your endgame progression.

I've always wondered how 1.0 was and sometimes wonder if I missed out on anything despite the hate it received. It sounds as though there was more depth to certain aspects of game play, which I wonder if some should be reintegrated.

I agree, I really think the current Materia system was a wasted opportunity. I agree about SMN also, although I do love the job but yeah that's a whole other story lol.

I lot of peoples would say "it ain't broke, don't fix it" but eventually everyone will see this game is repetitive same thing over and over. 3.0 expansion pack bring nothing NEW.
but that's just my opinion

Fortunately your opinion is more of a fact. Anyone that wants to argue that alexander is new, they're extremely wrong.
