I think they also mentioned somewhere but can't remember where that this is a nostalgic throwback to the old FF games of the past, even the character icons are in the style old nostalgic FF toons as is the UI for it. If you have evidence of them saying at any stage it was based on Nyzul Isle I would be willing to take a look but it wouldn't be much of a nostalgic throwback though if they made it overly complex compared to how those old games were.

    I never claimed that they said Nyzul was the inspiration, only that it is very similar in concept to Nyzul in the only other FF MMO they've made and am questioning why the implementation here of the concept is so much worse than what we got a decade ago. If their actual inspiration is something of lower quality than what Nyzul was, it doesn't really change the fact that we still got a better and more interesting thing a decade ago.
