Game is ruined (FFXIV 2.0)

[Crevox]

This is just.. terrible.

The game looks like WoW, and everything about it sounds like every other MMO on the market. So much of the stuff they talk about (dungeon finder, achievements, etc) are just... sigh...

While it initially sounded good, the more I read, it just got worse and worse. I am absolutely disappointed in SE, they've gone and ruined what they were actually starting to fix and improve upon. I knew a new UI was coming, I knew a lot was coming... but all of this is just completely annoying and just... I'm just shocked that they actually did this.

Colossal disappointment... I don't even care that they're starting to charge money, I would've gladly kept paying right now... but after this, I just don't think so. :\

*log off*

The game looks like WoW. Everything about it sounds like any other MMORPG. FFXIV was good because it was UNIQUE. FFXI was unique too. Now, they're gone and resorted to copying everything else in order to try to revive the game and not have the game be a big sunk cost.

It's just... sad. I'm all for improvements upon the game. I'm all for a better FFXIV. I don't like the current state of affairs, but the newer one doesn't look like an improvement... definitely not what I've been hoping for.

lol, you have ZERO idea how this game will look in 1 years time, all that you have seen it concept art and systems they are looking to implement and based on that sketchy information you are ready to quit.

lol.

Yep. This was all aimed to get people excited about version 2.0. Maybe it did for you guys, but certainly not for me. There's a lot of good improvements, but then there's tons of bad design decisions.

All in all, it leaves a bad taste.
