Okay I know I will get a lot of trolls coming in on this but I feel it really needs to be said.
I have just started playing this game, and looking through the forums all I ever see is people constantly comparing this game to Final Fantasy XI, saying how things need to be done the same way that Final Fantasy XI did them etc.
I did play Final Fantasy XI a while ago, and only for a very short time.. well, not long enough to remember much of it anyway.

I'm sorry to all you die hard Final Fantasy XI fans, but Square Enix is not going to make this game into 'Final Fantasy XI-2'. This isn't a remake of Final Fantasy XI, this is a completely different game, with a lot of features similar to Final Fantasy XI. If Square Enix really put all of these little things you miss from Final Fantasy XI, it wouldn't leave room for things for you to remember from XIV! I'm sorry but Square Enix are really not going to do that. If you are that desperate for Final Fantasy XI, then stop complaining and play it! Simple as that really.
Just because this game has not been perfect from the beggining, doesn't mean that you have to fill those patches up with previous content and ideas from the last series of the online games.

This of course is just my personal opinion, and I am in no way experienced to Final Fantasy XIV, nor am I experienced in Final Fantasy XI, but I really was hoping for more people to be asking for original and inventive ideas to be created into the game. Yes that's right, I said created, not remade.
