What XIV can take from XI to make it better

[strallaalaa]

well to be fair if you don't like most of the things that were in ffxi, it was pretty original to me. asking to not have things from ffxi is then saying i want them from wow, or other mmo's that are similar right? though i do want original mmo.

for HNM's like others said i love the battles, i hate the wait. pop items, farming the items would be awesome. make a sky like zone but the nm's keep repopping like the nm's we have now. low ass drop rates and add farming mobs or something to higher the drop rates, i dunno just tossing something out. but yeah lots of HNM's would rock. i hate going afk every 25mins for hours or days. take the tiem waits and make us kill stuff during that time, even if it still takes just as long to actually get to kill one of them beasts.

and again sorry for loving ffxi and realizing there hasn't been a mmo like it since. again asking for things not to be ffxi is like saying i want a wow clone there is only those 2 type of mmo's out really. and if you loved any other mmo and can use that word then you know there is like 50 other mmo's that are similar to play. so i don't get why they keep failing.

also this discussion has kinda become like religion on this site, it wrong to talk about religion(ffxi) but it's ok for the atheists to spend all day talking about it's non existence. if you want to evolve your mmo's then i have the right to say screw off just the same.

Considering I enjoyed FFXI, I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with liking the game.

The problem is people bitching about this game not being FFXI-2. From day fucking one it was said that this game would be more casual friendly.

Calm down Alhanelem, don't ruin my thread by starting more arguments again.

I don't want XIV to be XI-2, but I think that game isn't as evil as everyone implies here (And it's the complete opposite on the XI forums).

I for one don't want a completely unique MMO. I've seen what happens when that's the case. You can have similarities to another game, whilst letting it have merit of its own. Making XIV into an unique snowflake isn't a good idea.

Simpsons did it.

I really liked the levelling progression from F11 for me

Ronfaure > La Theine > Valkurm > Secret Beach > Qufim etc.

It gave the impression that you were on a journey/adventure. Different areas would open up before you, I could not wait to discover the next one.

biggest thing for me would be to not treat the overworld as a teleportation hub that is to be skipped at ones lesuire.
