I personally dont see how PvP is competion nor will I ever in a MMO, as some1 said this isnt tekken or street fighter. I personally dont like how dungeons are at this point all instances, and believe they should be open world content. The spawn rates of the mobs now is so short it isnt funny. Now if you want competition, than SE needs to not add instances for dungeons (bosses possibly), and they need to have mobs respawn at a slower rate. Furthurmore all items for bosses (example: ifrit moogle etc) need to be based on a point system as the current loot/drop rates completely blow (we all know why that is). I have said it before and that is this game is way to casual friendly and that is part of the issue, but yet some players like it that way and than in the end bitch about it.

Competition could be real if SE used ideas from ffxi like dynamis etc as well as other ideas from with-in their own series that has been used in the past. FFXIV could become a unique game all by itself if SE dosent use things from games like WoW or rift etc. At this point in time there is very little to none that makes FFXIV unique or 1 of a kind. I do realize I went of topic but it is everything together with-in the game that makes the game great, not just this or that. Once SE figures out how to completely fix the issues at hand only than will players be willing to come play and stay. Also 1 final thought, SE needs not give players everything they ask or demand be added to the game but fix what we have and will have in the future 1st.
