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

It's only false if you weren't on a PvP server.

World PvP has been pretty much dead since WoTLK launched. I've leveled on both PvP and PvE servers. I never got ganked 1-85 on the PvP server. In Vanilla in BC it was different.

However, regardless of the server I play on, his point is still completely false. Always has been, always will be. PvP has never been the central design focus of WoW.

You never know. I just don't want it to turn out like WoW did when I played on a PvP server. Getting randomly ganked by a high-level when I was skinning mobs.

PvP happens on a PvP server? *shocked*

Why would you roll on a PvP server if you didn't like the aspect of being ganked while skinning, questing, doing anything outside of your faction's zones?

Probably because open world pvp should have a point to it other than griefing.

I agree, but you know when you're rolling on that server that griefing has the potential to occur. If you like PvP, you can always run around flagged on a PvE server, that seems to work even better, because PvE servers aren't used to seeing red names run by them, so they're more likely to attack since it's rare. PvP servers are nothing but gankfests... or they were before WoTLK. I just BG if I want to PvP. That way I know the person isn't going to be 85 while I'm leveling at 20.

yes we want pvp.

I prefer to leave PvP to the kiddies that like to play mine is bigger than yours.

I suppose there are always those that think they have something to proove, so let them have it, but it should be very restricted as FFXIV should be a PvE game and just tack on some PvP for those that, feel the... ummm, need for it..

I don't mind if it's in seperate areas and PvP gear can only be used and worn in those areas. Keep the PvE areas totally PvE.
