Idk if it could ever be fixed

What didn't I read?

Um, when I got to your rant about "class uniqueness" is when I stopped. Since, if you actually keep up with dev posts and producer letters you would have known that is one thing they are already adjusting, along with implementing jobs. I'm sure you whined about other things that are being worked on as well. Of course you might actually know that if you take the time to research things.

Your order of wahburger and McCries is ready.

I agree with the OP for the most part, the game is terrible and i can't belive it can be salvaged, after 2 months of playing i dont feel like loging in at all and i really wanted to give it a try and play while it's free... but everything is so boring, and these updates don't seem to be bringing anything that would turn the game decent. i might just login in a month to try a chocobo maybe...

Anyway that's my opinion, the part i just dont't agree is where you say every FF besides IX and X, those were awesome but i'm gonna pretend u said every FF besides X-2, XII and XIII xD. I also played every FF game and used to love Square but they have been disapointing me non-stop since 2002, being FFXI the last final fantasy worthy of it's title

Played FFXI for years, and I'll agree w/Gank that the game had some oomph that XIV does not in the pain of death category, and I missed that at first too. That said, I think it would have been an absolute shame if they had created a clone of XI - change is a good thing! People who start an MMO eventually quit because it gets old, and to re-wrap XI in some prettier graphics wouldn't have made it a new game. If you're constantly comparing the two as you try to play, you're missing out on all that was built into this relatively unique game + the coolness they've introduced over the past year.

As gamers, I think we like to torture ourselves by embracing new challenges and defying the sometimes ridiculous learning curves. There's a point at which it helps to pause and remind yourself it's a game and the purpose is to have fun! Well, that's my purpose

I forgot to whine about how it's been a year and there still isn't an Auction House or a viable LFG system whatsoever. Sorry, I'll try to keep up.

AH is meh. lfg system is fine, people just want a lazy way of doing things.

Just about everyone is going to agree that an AH is needed, more of a better LFG system than a lazy one. I don't wanna argue about it tho, if it doesn't bother then cool. It's important to everyone else.

P.S. Still can't alt+tab out of fullscreen, another thing I forgot to whine about too. :P

Go play ffxi, you love it. This game should never be ffxi. Im not saying its perfect by far, but as developers you should look to making a new game experience. You should petition ffxi to remake their graphics/polygons and make an HD ffxi.

Im not even really hating on what your saying, im dead serious. Whatever they end up making this game, it shoud offer a unique expereicne from ffxi. FFXI can have expansions to expand the story, and they could theoretically redo the whole graphic engine while keeping the same game and data for probably a lot less money than making ffxiv ff11. There is no logical reason to make this game offer the same expereince as ffxi.

The reason they made FFXIV was for FFXI players that was looking for a PS3 port and a graphic upgrade. Seeing how FFXIV player base is 60+% FFXI players from the poll they did few months back. I would say you have to make this game Like FFXI but better and New with unique experience that never could be done in FFXI. Seeing how the 5 race are just like FFXI that was due to " Wanting ffxi players to jump over ffxiv without missing there Char"

I agree this should not be FFXI 2.0 or WoW or rift or anything but does not mean you can't have what FFXI had like BCNM,KSNM, and many other type of event but done new and unique to FFXIV.


To the OP: You do understand that dragoon in FFXI is not base of the old dragoon right? that Lancer is more like the dragoon in old Final Fantasy then FFXI. Due to it having a wyvern and Dragoon in old Final fantasy killed Wyverns.

The new job system would give you Monk,WHM,BLM, and everything we want to make the game more final fantasy so i don't see the issue here.
