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

[Tivonna]

People never paid attention to it in XI. If you don't want it don't go to the island. I know that some skills may alter from it but I see them concentrating on the PvE more especially if the PvP gets low numbers.

why are we talking about brenner and ballista? it's coliseum and frontlines; the entire concept is different. if i see images of pvp being a 'sporting' game then i'll be worried. but usually you don't see trebuchets at a game where everyone goes home patting each other on the back saying 'good game'. looks like pvp in this one will mean business. ppl really need to let go of ffxi.

Yes... Yes we do want PvP. If you don't enjoy it, don't participate in it!

That is all.

Never been a fan of PvP in any MMO but it never bothered me when others participated.
If XIV makes it so it's fun for me that be great, if not and others enjoy it that's great too. Not going to lose any sleep over it.

I'm not a fan of PvP, but arena would be cool.

Just no random PKing, and its all good.

Exactly, that's actually the only thing that ever bothered me. Especially in Aion where you could be in the middle of soloing and a group running by just killed you.

[Charismatic]

Yes, we want it in Final Fantasy.

PvP was actually something I originally didn't want to see in XIV and didn't think it would fit... Though after what we've been told of their plans for it, I'm really looking forward to it and think it will have it's place. :3 (I'll enjoy it as long as... IF there is a jump function added to the game it will be kept out of PvP! I want PvP, not BunnyvBunny)

The pvp they talked about sounds like it won't effect the PvE part of the game, as long as that stays true I'm okay with it. I'm not usually a person who partakes in PvP but I have in certain games, even joined a PvP server in DCUO back when it ws p2p. I might partake in XIV's PvP and if it is fun, then yay, and if it has rewards, cool! It just can't have a great effect on the PvE balance. XI didn't totally care about the PvP balance, I liked that approach. Jobs/Classes are the way they are, if you get beat by one in PvP due to them being OP in PvP, they shouldn't get rebalanced to the point where their gimp in PvE now. If OP w/e w/e w/e occurs then find a way to balance people only when they enter that instance like many other modern mmos are doing...or don't balance it and say eff it.
