Petition: Don't allow two home points!

[Biggs]

Making things more assessable is not a good thing.

Rokien buddy I like you, and I get what your saying, but that there may be the only time in history that that phrase has been uttered (with the acception of white guys talking about who to let on golf courses.)

D: yaaa lol could have said it a little better, <3

[Lyndis]

There is so much wrong with your debate tactics that I do not know where to begin.

... a whole bunch of stuff

I had this feeling while reading this post that I was running around a tetherball post. You seem to spend a lot of time talking a lot less time actually getting a message across. I'm sorry, I guess this post is irrelevant and I don't mean to upset you, but I admit I couldn't help myself after reading it. The truth is Rokien probably made this post, along with all his many other posts because he wants an opinion voiced. Everyone knows that that not even half the player base bothers to post on here. There may be a large group that read and do not post. These are things the developers have acknowledge. Rokien posts and voices his opinions when he can just in case there are like minded individuals that have yet to speak out. People may find it annoying but in truth, often times people do agree with his posts. So I hope everyone can find it in themselves to forgive him despite his inability to shut his mouth before he can speculate off the deep end.

I'd also like to argue that money is a very big driving force for an artist or designer. It's true people have passions about these things and they may pursue them regardless. However, there is an entire nation founded on the belief that money or at least recognition and appreciation for a creation is a driving force for these people. That's why patents exist after all. To say sales is not an inspiration for a gaming company is incredibly wrong. I'm sure that game developers feel very 'close' to their projects and they are proud of them no matter how well they are received by the public, but I doubt very many game developers have had the freedom to do whatever they want with their own game due to the investment cost of such projects.

There are not forums for every game. People don't set up these things so that they can be littered with praises. It's a place we can all speak our mind so that the developers can understand the demographic and desires of their consumers. So lets talk about the topic rather than argue whether this topic is valid or somehow intrinsically immoral.

Anyways... Having two home points is just another uneeded addition to this game. I wish we'd get the feeling that traveling is part of the adventure. I get tired of just being at different locations and either talking to an npc or in a fight. There is no getting there or exploration, it's just simply look at the map and teleport. So for each new addition that makes traveling easier, the game becomes less full and more flat. Though I feel this whole messy transportation system will get a revamp in 2.0 so I reserve any true complaints for that.

i hardly ever post on here, but rokien has made me care less about what he wants more then anything in this thread. i like this game a lot, and no matter what you say rokien it is a final fantasy game, no matter what they add or take away from it. the title has not changed.

- Airship travel is a staple element of final fantasy.
- It adds to world immersion.
- Its been stated that in the future traveling through airship will be more than just a cutscene.
- Its a gil sink.

I agree with everything you're saying here.
I think airships were doomed before they even added them though. I knew I'd never use them. I have far too much anima. I've never once been on an airship. Why would I waste the gil? Wouldn't even be enjoyable not being able to walk around on deck. :x

I hope that someday SE fixes/gets rid of anima so that airships and chocobos see far more use. World seems dead with people magically popping in and out all the time.

On topic: As for being able to warp to the inns I figured I'd only use that before logging out for the night.

The level of QQ on these forums for helpful features is nothing short of mind blowing. I thought this "community" had a few battered housewives, but now I see it's quite a number more than I imagined.

Damn me for giving people the benefit of the doubt on that one lol

Can't you guys he happy already? What's it gonna take, seriously? This feature will get implemented and all this arguing will be forgotten shortly after, except by the few who choose to make e-enemies out of other posters. It's not a big enough deal to even be posting 25 pages about. There are gonna be plenty more far "worse" features in the future. Save yer breath already!

[firepixiedarien]

Plz tell me what that's from, cuz the animation quality is amazing

[Chardrizard]

Yea there is no use arguing, I am sure none of the devs are stupid enough to takes anything Rokien says.

[Nexxus]

Two home point, until 2.0 is here, is pretty fine for me.

I don't want to waste all my money on airship, 5k is maybe cheap, but having to use airship more often and it's getting a whole in the wallet.

And i would love to get a free teleporter from Ul'dah to > Gridania/Limsa lominsa (not the inverse), so we can manage to not overcrowed Ul'dah and make players more ready to stay on anothers town place. (or make airship free and instant).

All that of course, until 2.0 . After that, i'm all up to remove anima, two home point, make airship cost money, etc...

[Gramul]

Now. I don't exactly agree with Rokien, but dear God.
What the hell is this?

Disagreements on game design gives us no right to act like arrogant belittling asses.

If you think his line of reasoning is wrong, simply explain so and move on. If he's really in the wrong, there's no point to pursuing an extended argument with him, especially when said arguments lead to jumping onto stagnant labels like "Troll" "White Knight" "Whiner" to try to lift ourselves above one another. Like we're too good to hear the opinions of others so we can use that as an excuse to back away from discussion. We're all on the same level here. Everyone wants their voice heard and we should be able to discuss these issues like adults.

This "OMG U TROLL ME" twaddle does nothing but make us look like bickering children and I know we can be better behaved than that.
