Make FFXIV more like FFXI and less like WoW!

Wasn't the reason 1.0 failed because it tried too hard to be like ffxi?

It failed because it wasn't finished not because it was like XI. They tried to make it different from XI but had some similar aspects.

The engine it was made on was not ideal but I still miss my graphics and textures and weight that everything had. Its a shame we can't get them back, at least for people who have PCs that can handle it I don't agree with making all clients equal in that regard.

Same, actually! My PC at the time couldn't handle it, but I loved the way the game looked. The weight was also a really nice touch.

But Yoshi basically said to his team. "See that WoW game?" "Go play it and use that as your template." They didnt have to come up with too much new. Which the 1.0 team had to do.
