    If so called "bland" helps keep things in check and doesn't result in imbalance in the way FFXI most definitely was, then yes, I will take bland any day. FFXIV's system has a ton more depth than you think. As I said in a previous post, being overly complex in your stats/hot bar does not equal depth. The content itself is the depth.

    Good luck since they wont even server merge for XI, which is part of the reason some people just dont go back. The community has been asking for server merges in that game for years, yet SE's alternative is just to lower the transfer price. Not greedy at all...

    When 3.35 comes out people like myself will try out Deep Dungeon, complete it once and drop it and then active subs will drop once again.

    My DnD handbooks have 20 times more depth then what XIV's indepth systems could ever hope to achieve.

    Oh, I know it's never going to happen, but there certainly are virtual solutions that could be done to give us the illusion of a more full server.

    It call work that require effort on the part of developers and player feed back, just doing nothing isn't a solution either it being part of the problem. Relying on your previous post does prove anything that's your experience just as mine are. Believe it or not there are different players out there that would argue otherwise of your vision of depth and IMO its pretty boring.

    If that is how you feel then suggest how to improve the content, not how many bells and whistles you can put on a character. Putting pointless stats on a character isn't going to magically make the game better.

    ToAU was past a 3 year mark by the way. But that aside, look at those end game activities compared to what we have here in XIV. Oh right. Just one raid. Hmm. Ahh, but I'm sure people are gonna toss Weeping City. Which you can have, but that's literally only once at best. But if there's no need to do it(because tomegear) then its just there to "gear up" an alt at best because of a weekly lock. Remove that lock and I bet more content will die pretty fast. Still 4-2 as far as I'm concerned, but we're not taking into account the HNM scene that had relevant gear.

    Yet is that not what the dev team has been doing? Like Parry?

    Suggest clicking my name and find those post, I'm under no obligation to you, your not a developer so that point is mute. Nothing will never magically happen with that attitude if your only suggestion is to do nothing either keep at it though.

    You must have that response on Macro because that's the same type of response you always give. When someone does give the response, you try to either ignore the idea and brush over it or defend how you don't want any change whatsoever. You say you played and enjoyed XI and wouldn't mind some stuff from XI. I personally don't believe you. Everything you want, wants to follow XIV's limited, boring, mash buttons, same old same old each patch formula.

    There is no point in adding stuff if it doesn't solve the very core issue at hand. You've already contradicted yourself numerous times on these statements.
