It seems like they don't even know what Final Fantasy is anymore, slowly we progress down the same road other mmos have as they've got expansions and reached their peak.

Oh we are getting new players, this means we have to dumb everything down and remove all depth... I'd be surprised if these issues aren't resolved until we see a new mmo in the FF series if at all. Healing in FF can't change without DoT's etc working differently and seperatley. Damage as it comes in right now is always predictable, poisons all tick at the same time etc, everything is telegraphed or has a castbar, or happens with a certain frequency. If they increase the damage intake too much, nobody will be able to really react who is "new" to the game.

I honestly have no faith in the dev team after Stormsbloods empty promises and all the fake things we've been told in live letters over the years. I'm going to wait until I see what they have to say at E3, I'm not really feeling the passion for the FF series after 13 which was at least bareable, couldn't stand how simple and unfinished 15 was and 14 was amazing until stormsblood etc hit. It's just a pretty chat room with okayish combat to me these days.

Rant over lol, I'm glad people still enjoy the game, I just wish I did also.
