It's a shame that optimization sucks.
The optimization in FFXIV is still an issue and lag is still a issue too as all they did was chop up maps into several instances instead of leaving them as one large open zone like in 1.0. Also because of the large amount of items the game simply has no method of allowing you to stash them all unlike in 1.0 version where you were able to stash every item in the game and yes, I am still pissed that the team got rid of letting players buy items off of other players anywhere since it not only made my shopping alot easier but it also gave me a reason to socialize with other players too. I even use to have a list of players I knew on my server that always sold certain items I needed and would seek them out in the world to buy from them directly.

This is what Yoshida took from us.
He stolen the games mmo aspect in favor for making it more like a single player game.
We now only have FFXI for a real ff mmo experience but even there they are trying to make that into a single player game too.

I am honestly tired of having my mmos turn into single player games. If I wanted to only play single player games then I would just play that genre instead.

Maybe that's why I stopped being as active ingame... I'm just tired of playing a single player game pretending to be a mmo
