Why is Yoshi P turning his back on the playerbase that loves this game the most?

One of the things that many players loved about FF11 was the fact you could have 1 piece of gear that lasted you YEARS. why not take that part of the game and put it in 14. maybe have special gear sets you can upgrade as the ilvl increases. they already have the glamours on lockdown so if your looking for a new look there is more than enough content..

I don't remember where I read it, but I did read something about a relic style armor set being considered for 4.X. It's been a long time since I kept up with anything though so take that with a grain of salt.
