Romance in Eorzea, you and the community

[Yellow]

Please don't put words in my mouth, I don't agree with this. >.>;

Also I didn't really see anything about romance in your thread. I'm not sure I follow. You seem to be asking that SE focus more on the massive-multiplayer and less on the roleplaying-game? I think social is important but without the latter it becomes something like second-life. The gameplay and its framework must come first! After all when it comes to the social aspect, SE can only do so much - its up to the community and each of us to make it into something worthwhile and meaningful. Maybe your question should be - what can the community do to make FFXIV something more involving/social for its players?

No, to me it sounded like he wanted SE to focus on the Massively Multiplayer and Role-playing.

It's nice to see SE adding things in that gives you more interest to log on every day. Seriously contrast that to WoW.. what did you do every week? I logged in twice, once to do heroics and then raids, the other to do dailies, or gathering. Seriously boring as hell.

Precisely, thank you. A lot of mmorps are really just an mmog with rpg "elements".

Belonging to the game is not created just by making thousands of dungeons.

I'd say more but I'm on my phone lol

I'd love to see more of the RP aspect to the game instead of just the MMO part just like you both (Shou and Yellow) have said.
While I love battles and such I love the community aspect of things too, if not more. Getting to know people, making friends and having stuff to do aside from the usual whack-a-mole style play really makes a game stand out from the usual grindfests (not to say that XIV doesn't have plenty of this side of things too!)

I'd like to see the game cater for many tastes, so there's the community 'fluff' type stuff and also the whole epic adventure side of things too!
