Concepts from other MMOs that would be utterly anathema to FFXIV

[Divinemights]

I have the best corruption Infinite Star and I can guarantee you that I am not impressed by this corruption system when Infinite Star is already my 2nd highest damage done. WoW failed for a reason, please stop trying to turn FF14 into WoW. We should embrace FF14 by taking WoW as a failure example and learn not to repeat the same mistake

Yeah. It is worthwhile to look at other games, and consider what features may work well in FFXIV. But even if the corruption system WAS great and had no drawbacks and everyone loved it in WoW, that wouldn't automatically mean it would translate well into FFXIV. They're both pve focused action bar trinity based MMOs, but beyond that there are some key differences when it comes down to the particulars.

One thing I would love though is WoW's transmog system, where you save an appearance to your account and don't have to hold onto the physical item in your inventory anymore. If they could make that system work in FFXIV's glamour system I'd love it. But not everything can be brought over so easily.

Yep and that's why I hate WoWs corruption system you just take the good corruptions and then every other corruption you get that's not Infinite Stars or Twilight Devastation (which I think got heavily nerfed), there's no reason to get anything else. It was busted seeing DKs and Wars in WoW pull a gigantic room only to AoE it down in 12 seconds because of busted corruptions, I don't want to see anything so RNG and unfun like titanforging and corruptions.

The only thing I'd ever want from WoW is Mythic+ dungeons they have it here in 14 as PotD/HoH but it'd be great if we had rewarding 4 man Savage dungeons that could use pomanders like in deep dungeons to spice it up, other than that though WoW is a textbook example of what not to do in MMO design.
