I dont really have any complaints about the weapons other than they seem a little too samey with one another but other than that they are decent enough for what they are. I'll start to worry when i see a roegadyn running by in neon green glowing armour.... lol

Ok you have the 1st valid point for the general meh on both sides of the argument.. It could be a lot worse.

I know were getting the weapons we have seen I'd prefer more refind and stylish weapons but well...
The only reason I'm still commenting on this is in the hope that we can get the Devs to to look at other recent FF titles and take inspiration from them, and find a better way of giving people that OMG EPIC gear, but having it look stylish and fit in with the style of the world we have now without it having just another generic mmo look wow has pushed on us..

Just letting you know, those "generic MMO WoW" items were in FFXI before WoW came out...

I don't agree the art style in FFXI is cartoon like in the same way from what I've seen of it at all.
A better reference would have been EQ probably, but that's more due to the age of them.

FFXIV has better general graphics then well all mmo's really and has no need for the simpler style used in those games.
But since wow it has been around generally MMO titles (RIFT/WAR an so on) have taken on a more cartoon look as it is easier to do.
While Rift was a huge improvement the style was similar in many ways..
There is nothing wrong with that at all, but this game didn't start out like that, and it was a selling point for me, I would just prefer for it to remain that way.

Btw fail "Quoting" you missed a work.
