If you want FF XI , then PLAY FF XI!

[darkstarpoet1]

My issue with the people who call for things to be copied from FFXI is the tunnel vision. FFXI did some stuff right and some stuff wrong. Instead of copying what they did right, they should be taking what was done right, seeing why it works well, and then improving on it rather than just blindly trying to copy it.

There's ALWAYS room for improvement.

this i completely agree with. i don't care what game it's from either so it doesn't have to be just xi. if they can take any good stuff from other games and improve it and make it to where it works in xiv i am happy with it. i loved alot of the original concepts, but even those could have been improved upon big time.

I find it funny how offended the XI fanboys get in this thread and how they claim nobody asked for XIV to be XI-2. Yet doing a simple search in this forum i can quote hundred of posts of pple asking S-E to turn this into XI-2 and how successful the game would be if they took everything from XI and put it in here. "S-E would get 100k subs right there if they made this like XI" Yeah right, so you think S-E should forget about getting this game into the mill of subs and settle for the hardcore XI fans they already got? Wow...

Anyways keep talking and keep begging fanboys, it's been over a year and Yoshi-P is still ignoring you guys... juts look at the 2.0 material we got so far, couldn't be further away from XI.

Nobody wants FFXI-2 because XI is 8 years old. They should try something new.

It's funny you say this when they straight imported the naming conventions from FFXI into FFXIV. By the way, you better hope Hamlet defense isn't setup like Campaign OPs or Besieged or you may end up killing yourself.

dont forget the auto attack that was in ffxi that would NEVER be added by Yoshi because its too much like xi! It must have been approved while he wasn't looking!

[Jinko]

thats not fair... the game being rushed and unfinished and the game being unique and innovative are 2 separate issues

Yea I've pointed that out on several occasions, Elexia doesn't reason with reason.

Agree with what dreamer said.

I guess WoW copied FF11 as well then because that has auto attack. /sigh

maybe it did and maybe it didn't and your right auto attack is kind of broad however i can tell you that when FFXIV came out with its horrible button mashing system at first and everyone asked for auto attack, a lot of those people were thinking back to FFXI. To say that Yoshi isnt going to use features from FFXI is absolute insanity.

yep, everyone asked for auto attack so much that everyone that had quit the game november after release all came running back to the game after it was put in right? oh that's not true? i guess not everyone wanted that then.

this game after november was garbage and still basically is garbage, just a little less smelly. If auto attack wasn't a big deal they wouldn't have bothered changing the system.

Your statement is funny since if you want to get technical, the fact it released almost 3 years after XI you could say it copied XI if you want to say a game "must have copied X"

Also, I've always been one of the people who said XIV released unfinished, which is why they should have just built off of XI, that way it wouldn't have been an unfinished mess because they'd have a solid base to work with.

You know, what pretty much every MMO does these days? So my friend don't confuse "not reasoning with reason" with "she doesn't want to agree with me even when I'm wrong."

Yes, Yoshida is ignoring us, because we're clearly talking about the style of LFG icon as seen in XI and Yoshida ignored this.

Clearly.

And before you start with your selective reading comprehension, Jinko, I know you're in support for that.
