How does this game compare to FFXI ?

[Kiote]

I am admittedly Disfranchised, but in my honest opinion FFXI is Ruined. The Newest Expansion series made the entire first 90% of the game obsolete.

It really is a shame how badly Abyssea distorted that game.

Because so many fresh faces were showing up for the old content, amirite?

There's nothing wrong with Abyssea. The only thing the Visions series did was make the game more accessible to new comers and more of a relaxed playground for veterans who did that other 90% for about 9 years.

That said, it's hard to judge XIV right now. It's still between what it used to be and what it will be. Until 2.0 launches, all anyone can say is the new battle system has promise. So as long as dynamic content comes along to make it shine.

Keep in mind everyone has their opinions, likes, and dislikes. However, as a veteran player of FFXI, 5 years of straight playing and several off and on journeys back for nostalgic purposes, FFXI is nothing of it's former self. Now it's basically race as fast as you can to get high level, ignoring almost the entire game. Abyssea destroyed an absolutely amazing game. FFXI wasn't for everyone but for those who enjoyed it REALLY enjoyed it. Sadly that's in the past ='(
