Gamespot interview with Mr. Ozma... Very disappointing

[Ririta]

So heres my gripe with all the doom and gloom with FFXIV, is there an alternative MMO? Like im genuinely interested if there is, but personally cant say that ive really found anyother MMOs worth playing... Active, growing, no PTW, not a massive grindfest, fun classes that arent too difficult, fun/difficult bosses/raids, bonus if its cross-platform, soo anything like that out there?

WoW Cataclysm classic might come out one day. That's what FFXIV devs played to make ARR, and a lot of things here such as tomes and dungeon roulette existed in Cata. Even some job design might be familiar if played FFXIV at launch, like summoner was basically affliction warlock, black mage was fire mage, so on.

It was notoriously difficult at first tho, heroics and even normal raids had to be nerfed. But god was it fun.

Personally it's the only other MMO that I'm interested in.
