So no, they're not making it more "WoW". They're making it more of an actual MMO, with standards of a 2012/13 game. I wish people understood that,

Day-long timers, objectives that take years to achieve and such are impractical nowadays. I love FFXI as much as everyone else, but it's a 10 yo game. A FFXI clone wouldnt stick nowadays. What we're gonna have is a FFXI with nowadays standards. I still remember when ppl bitched because XIV had a minimap <.<

And thank god they're playing other MMOs. They really need to have an idea of their competition, don't you think? Doesn't mean they're gonna clone them. But if they bring the best of each other over, then it's fantastic.
Very good points sir!

But for example... I played rift for 1 - 2 months and it was WoW just with a newer engin. It was a sad copy. I dont want XIV to be a WoW with a FF "skin" persay
