stormblood and how you feel for it

[Stanelis]

The only thing I'm disappointed in is how negative everyone is being. I was super excited to see all the new stuff. I don't really care if they change the game up too much, I like XIV mostly the way it is. Extra content besides dungeons never hurts, but otherwise I'm pretty satisfied with the game.

I honestly wonder how many people complaining about same old same old came from XI, where it was farm items to spawn NMs to farm items to spawn NMs.

Generally good MMORPG do improve their game features in each expansion (FFXI included) and that didn't happen in heavensward. The main difference between FFXI and FFXIV (because you talk about that) is that the game design of the battle system of the former game was vastly deeper than the one from FFXIV. Also, don't forget a lot of people have been supportive in regard to FFXIV in 2.0 despite the game's shortcoming because SE had little time to salvage the game from the 1.0 situation, but a lot of these players actually expected SE to keep improving the game at each expansion's release (as it is actually the norm of the MMORPG market).

When 3 fanfest occurs and there are almost no talks about gameplay, something feels wrong.
