[Devs] Add high-end content for light party too, please

[Malakhim]

FFXI is an MMORPG...

I didn't say I didn't want to play with anyone.

I said I didn't want to play with everyone.

That is the reason it's not "light parties" like every other Final Fantasy.

"Every other Final Fantasy" tends to be groups of 3 or 4. Maybe in FFXI it wasn't. But there is no reason why this game can't be set up that way.

Yoshi-P said he was going to be making 4 and 8 party content. I see nothing unreasonable about this request.

I see nothing relevant about your comment.

I will agree however that lower man content should be made at least until 2.0. I don't think SE will manage to secure many subscriptions in this pseudo-beta period.

Eight is a very small number especially if you compare it to other MMORPGs. However, this is irrelevant considering the low population.

yes its a mmo .. that's pretty much becoming the most casual of all time... so if its gonna be casual be that and stop straddling the fence for gods sake. this game still has no identity. by implementing what the op suggested at least u provide more content by allowing less restriction on party size its not like the op was asking to let us be able to solo the content .. for instance why when darkhold became able to be entered with 4-8 people why not just have a 4 man mode where the enemies were scaled to b a hard challenge for that size party. i understand its a mmo, but you need to look at big picture most people that came from 11 aren't kids anymore and some never were so the days of huge linkshells when you had people on all day and available for most /all events is a done deal also. and now those people are the majority. just my 2 cents.

I know what you're saying. Hell, they could have not made FFXIV an MMORPG and gone the route of SEGA with Phantasy Star.
I think that would have worked much better.

To be fair, most early final fantasy titles had at least 5 people per party. Well FFIV did anyway. Honestly they should just continue to make content either specifically for light parties or for full parties.
