Look, i'm pretty sure NOBODY asked for gameplay like FFXI. Stop comparing FFXIV to FFXI or implementing FFXI gameplay into FFXIV. IT DOES NOT WORK else we all would be playing FFXIV 1.0 and it wouldn't have flopped.

The majority of us who sub and chose to play FFXIV is because of it's faster GCD, the raid and etc. If you are desperate to play grinding mob nostalgia games i am pretty sure you can still play FFXI or if you want to, go and play those korean mmo grind games.
