What did FF14 have right, at launch?

[Mirage]

armory system, and personally I enjoyed the no auto attack system more.

It was terrible. Unless you were some sort of 300 words per minute typer, it was impossible to communicate in even the most laid back fights.

Maybe if there was some sort of built in voice chat, but I don't even like voice chatting all the time I'm in game.

The only way I could see the no auto attack thing work is if you could queue up at least 10 seconds worth of commands.

Agree with this as well. FF11 had a fun combat style where strategy and chatting were both possible. Auto attack was sorely needed in FF14. Im a little perturbed by how they implemented it, for example RNGs not getting auto attack with their arrows and mages without darts, they took out darts altogether?

I'm a controller user and I use voice chat, I hate text chatting so I enjoyed it. Now combat is stupid slow compared to before.

i have to say i completely agree and for the same reasons. i also use a controller and communicate on voice and enjoyed the original fast pace of battle so much more than the slow battles we have now.
