Sorry, but Content deal finder again.....

That's quite a few changes. How much can change in an instance?

Well time is nothing really, I can log on at any time and enter an instance. (unless it has certain lock outs, which I am all for)

Place, the difference between spawning in X23:Y34 and X24:Y34 isn't much to get excited over either :P

Other people watching hmm isn't that just wanting to show off, elitist nonscence ?

Help well I already mentioned the problem with this.

I laughed a little

26 NM's (how many of which are below level 35?).... That is absolutely pathetic. Currently FFXI has 2855 (Posting this because I know how much you love comparisons to that game)

Albeit, the game has been out what, 10 years? So that's unfair. Lets try again.

In 2004 the game had 390 NM's. According to my calculations that is around 2 years after release.

FFXIV has 26 NM's. This game is also coming up on the 2 year Mark. (I know, its coming in 2.0?)

26

You do have a point , but how many of those were instanced/BCNM, how many were quest/BCNM ? how many were low level ?

I am willing to bet that if FFXIV had launched in a decent state we would have much more content and NM's at this point, but It didn't work out like that so comparisons are completely off the wall in any case.

I think you are on to something here.

Jinko, I fully respect your opinions, and you make good points. But the open world aspect of this game is absolute not on a satisfactory level. I know you, and many others hate how I compare this game to XI, but regardless of popular belief, those comparisons are viable. It is, after all, a "Final Fantasy" title. All "Final Fantasy" titles get compared to each other, albeit sometimes different aspects get compared. Regardless of whether its an MMO or not, it is going to be compared to prior titles. I know, I know, Yoshi-P himself has said that this game is taking a new direction, and that is fine. But that will not stop me, and many others from trying to get a couple things put into the game.

It's totally cool, I appreciate that you have fond memroies of FF11, I do too, I mentioned WoW enough when I compare to other MMO's because I spent 4 years playing that game, so can understand why you use 11 as your example

Of course there is a difference between you guys wanting a couple of things in the game and wanting it all, but where do you guys plan to stop ?

As I have said I am just happy to let Yoshi-p do what he wants if the game starts to take a form that I don't like I will quit and play something else, I won't ask him to change it into something its not.
