WoW Legion uses FFXI style for relics but FFXIV does not?

[FizzleofHyperion]

With all respect if WoW was your first MMORPG and you have no FFXI experience I cannot expect you to understand what I mean.

A relic on FFXI was one of the most powerful weapons you can get it was something rewarding challenging and time consuming.

It never was useless instead it continued to grow you. We have so many weapon choices on FFXIV that are equally as powerful in ilvl standards and the relic should have been a grind fest and continued to be a reward not a mistake and a waste of your time and effort.

New MMORPG generation or not you don't have to adapt to exactly everything the market does. You can introduce people to something old school.

I'm not sure if the playerbase is a majority or a minority of FFXIV but if the majority is the newer consumer market of MMORPG players it would have been really refreshing if they had to work hard for something.

Yoshi Ps latest comment about the relic that its a casual route is so disrespectful towards the playersbase who understand how powerful and rewarding a relic should actually be.

If I really wanted an alternative I could use the esoterics tomes palace of the dead or even lore tomes why most people get exactly everything as a handout?

Can't just one lousy thing in this entire game just be something thats worth an acheivement/time/gil/investment that can distance players from eachother and give some sort of competition through dedication and time?

There are so many people that have families and job and still find time for FFXIV I don't really buy the whole I don't have enough time excuse.

What I do beleive is the newer generation is just a bunch of lazy crybaby gamers who want everything as a handout and don't want to grind for anything it seems.

There are so many other MMORPGs out there that provide these handouts and are pretty much on a pay to win level.

Final fantasy XIV does not have to go this path but change can only come from the playerbase.

I still beleive that certain things in FFXIV should be accomplished during the same conditions and circumstances as everyone to acheive.
