I am a FFXI vet and I know there are plenty of others out there giving XIV a chance. Now based of what is being done and the direction XIV is going isnt something that I like. Now I will give it a fair shake but.... if 2.0 is an easy mode shit box than I know I wont stay and a lot of XI vets will leave as well. Regardless of what SE is trying to do, XIV is going in the wrong direction. Ill be honest I really cant see XIV surviveing past 1 year with the current direction yoshi is taking it, but as I said I will give it 1 year. So Yoshi has to get his shit together and not make mistakes (although I think he is making a huge mistake in the direction thats my opinion).
