Think the game will succeed?

Quoting him in your replies just makes more work for the moderators when they have to ban him and delete his posts.

So from what you've been hearing, do you think the games going to drastically improve?

bla bla..SWTOR..If you've played it, do you think FF will manage to compete with it?

Yes, the game will drastically improve.
And I think it will be a really good MMORPG after 2.0 launch.
But really, I doubt it will ever become a "success", for the simple reason that - no matter how good the game actually will be - bad roumors about it won't ever vanish.
SE had their chance, and they pushed out a broken game.
They may be able to get more players with 2.0, maybe even enough to gain enough money to get the money back they invested into it, but still, it won't ever grow much beyond it's fanbase.
That's just my opinion though, I hope it will be different^^°

About SWTOR:
Why is everyone comparing these games?x-X
They are a totally different fandom so it's not really "competing" at all!
For example me, I'm not interested in Star Wars, never liked it, but I'm willing to look at any MMO, even some that I don't like. And for all the hype the game got, I expected way more.
Now for someone who does not like Final Fantasy, it's the same with FFXIV.
The game may be good after 2.0, but someone not interested in the FF fandom won't play it, no matter how good it actually is.
So how about we stop comparing them..?

it's funny you mention he's "fucking stupid" when you cannot even make proper sentences.

"threw" is supposed to be "through"

"it's" is supposed to be It's.

"it's" is supposed to be It's.

my shift is broken

oh i see, you have played V2.0, sorry i thought you was just spouting your opinion on something that is not even being tested yet, like it was gospel. if i had known you have all the inside info on how V2.0 has make the same mistakes as the game that was released a year ago, i would not have been so quick to dismiss you as a moron

yoshi - tanaka, 2 different ppl, 2 different plans, don't judge something you havn't tried

But that has been the same excuse we have heard since before the game released, at beta, we told you it was bad, and you guys came back with "Oh how do you know ? a MMO is never finished it will be good at release" then the game released and it was garbage, and you guys said "Oh it just released every other game did in that state(Wish is false!) then the first update came and nothing change, then the second, the third, the fourth, and now here we are, still waiting for the golden patch.

Oh and about Swotor, just from the beta quest, and stuff i know more about its lore, than i know about FFXVI <.< that should say something.

you mean getting a piece of the lore then 4 months laters getting another piece of it is not good enough for you?

actually, you don't really have to have one in that sentence

ffxiv has no story. its lore is a complete mess and the whole companies thing seems out of place.
SWTOR is just like a mmo KOTOR with a fun PVP thing and -REALLY- awesome group quests.
obviously not the same game but the point is FFXIVs group "instances" suck and get old fast whereas SWTOR can be done multiple times and not get old since how you respond results in diff outcomes. FFXIV has no "deep quests" whereas almost all of SWTOR is "deep quests". Etc.

Even if you dont like the story the point is in SWTOR its there, in ffxiv its not. I -loves- FFXI because it did a great job of telling a story but i really don't give a f*** about some random person in limsa wanting ppl to try her cupcakes so i can spend an hour of my life running in circles for her just to be rewarded with something i could have farmed at level one in 5 min.

And SE doesn't even bother to add in new content or story quests other than a few that can be completed in 3 hours after patch release.

What does XIV have to offer compared to other games?
gameplay is fail to the point where they are redesigning the game
story has -potential- to be epic but is so far pretty fail
quests are complete fail
leves are repetitive
getting to rank 50 takes -no- skill at all really
the "trade"/economy is a failure

I always hope that SE will be like "look we have new plans to fix all this" but they don't. they just say "we have 2.0" which is a completely vague statement.

of course you don't thats what happens when your part of FF niche market scrub group of wana be mmo gamers that except half of what you should get. mario was able to jump, my char in ffxiv should be able to 15 years later also.

So because my interest in games is different then your high and mighty Swtor style games I am a SCRUB. You sir is 1 player i will not miss. You appearantly have a deep hatred for FFXIV and its players, so why the heck are you here? If i see you post here post SWtor launchs and XIV p2p, then I pity you for having no other pleasures in life except talking down on others.

Cant fathom your obsession about jumping. Do you walk around your neighborhood jumping instead of walking? And whats the point of having Jump when theres no point of having it? In Skyrim yes you would be unable to play it properly since it requires you to jump from 1 place to another, but ive never seen any places in Eorzea where ive had the need to Jump.
