PvP - Do we really want this kind of thing in Final Fantasy?

[Vahzl]

I woke up just amazed at OPs post here. For one you cannot start a debate on a yes or no basis if the OP is already on the no side. He is being biased towards one side and trying to get people on that side for his own personal gains. He started talking about the "debacle pvp in FFXI that we had", ballista was not awful and Fenrir server was one of the biggest ballista based servers that everyone heard about in any server (me on Titan) and a lot of my friends moved to Fenrir server just to play ballista only. Ballista was very popular in my own server also. Everyone loved Brenner out of the 6 years I played no one knocked Brenner they just played it with their fellow LS mates and had fun.

Next you are saying that they are gonna rebalance skills towards PvP out of your own opinion. They had PvP in FFXI on a PvE based game. They never rebalanced skills for PvP and they never will. Why would they do that on a PvE based game on FFXIV. And you also bringing up anger that people will get... cmon man you are starting forum posts like this.

Yoshi himself in the 4gamer interview said that only 15% people involve themselves into PvP based on their own data that they have at hand. That was enough for them to add PvP areas. They are excited about it, and so am I. This is a MMO that catters to everyone not just yourself, stop knocking anything that comes by that you don't like. If they are happy with the 15% player base that plays PvP than let it be and leave it alone.

Um I do indeed have a strong dislike for PvP in Final Fantasy, and the initial post has reasons both for and against it. While I might be biased in one way, I am still objective but realistic about the impact these systems have on games.

Indeed, it would be nice if we could battle LSes from different servers as well.

giving this interaction between servers would also go towards closing the gap on lonliness between friends or rivals =]

but yeah im big into group pvp. its more fun with friends

I can assure you, Abaddon has no shortage of rivals on Fabul. :P But that's what makes the game fun, some friendly competition.

You guys do know that they can balance PVP and PVE separately, right?

I am not saying they can't, I am just saying Blizzard did not do this properly and destroyed some PvE aspects of the game. I am just saying that I hope Square Enix does this in a different way. It is not just about PvP only gear, it is also about certain abilities that Blizzard kept changing and changing and changing to keep PvP between classes balanced, without looking at the influences it had on the PvE side of the game.

@Arcell, why can you not discuss in a normal way? Not one word in my post was offending and I did not write it without thinking about it first. I am discussing something and the first thing you assume is that I did not think about it. Get over yourself and just learn to discuss in a normal way even if you are on the internet. Seriously ...

Thanks op for saying you are biased towards one side. You cannot start these debates and steer people to the "no" side for your own personal gains. You start this debate with a yes and no option and say what its about. OP if you don't like it don't do it. You are clearly abusing the freedom of speech that SE has freely given to everyone. Thank you for not providing equal terms on both sides of the debate.

:P With that being said, Fabul has been called the unofficial drama server. lol

What a great way to provide developmental feedback to proposed features upcoming, that could define the entire game.

Thumbs up for the most useless poster on the forums.

The crap that you posted is not any more useful.

*offtopic* sorry, last reply.

Why wouldn't you add PvP... since it will draw people in.

I don't understand these posts... they said they are adding it, they have concept art, they are working on the numbers for pvp.... so WTF do you think this post will do? It's going to be in the game sooner or later.
