Why do people say no?

Why do people say no to anything FFXI? Doesn't make sense seeing this chart......... http://static.finalfantasyxiv.com/pl...36kgy8gt57.jpg

whats this a chart of? how many people played ffxi? how long they played it? people say no to archaic elements in ffxi, or having played for an extended period of years would like something new that isnt ffxi.

ffxi is still there, you can buy it and subscribe even! we want the next generation of final fantasy online. bring what was good. but REALLY try to take it to the next level. Frankly I think guildwars2 has this one in the bag ]=

i'm thinking the same with the gw2, i fully expected launch of this game with campaign battle type grinds and content right from the get go since ffxi ended with an expansion with it.(15man grinds like crab parties were very close to it till they took them out though, loved those) it has everything i want from a mmo in it that i can see except one thing though.(and one of the most important) i doubt it will have large scale pve ...my bed 6 or 12 will be tops. i really love large scale, but but all the public quests are large scale, least they will be for the first year when servers are pact. after that they will probably be empty just like warhammers public quests.

also they dont' have a main healer .....i can't stress how much i love this for a game with pvp. i love healer classes but i hate them in pvp games. and so gw2 pvp will probably be the one pvp mmo that i will enjoy playing.

For the current server failings of ffxiv, i think maybe at one point SE tried to make dynamic events, with GMs; but i hope they are able to add these things where random events happen in the world to make it seem more alive. right now its still the original setup. you got z mob at x,y coordinates. and thats all that area will ever be

FFXI was like a gorgeous girlfriend that you wanted to show off to your friends but your friends could see that she made you work way too hard to get anywhere with her.

On a more serious note, for every good thing about XI one person can site...another can site something flawed in it, for example...Action House...

Some peeps want an XI stlye AH "because it works", while others remember the flaws and how it was "exploited by RMT".

So what we need is an "Improved XI style AH that can't be exploited by RMT"....or an entirely new system that works "better" than an XI style AH (but better than Market Wards).

LFG is another example. Some would be happy with XI's simple yet effective system while others want a more robust system with more options.

I think that some peeps get frustrated waiting for things "to be implemented in v2.0" and resort to saying things like "just give us XI's system".

As for Content...well we all just want Fun quests/Dungeons/Raids/PvE events, etc and probably don't care where the inspiration comes from as long as it is fun and rewarding.

Let's be honest... FFXI was a decent looking girlfriend... at best

I think you already know that if you said that to an actual woman... It wouldn't come off like a compliment and it wouldn't go over very well
