Alpha Video 4- Quests and Battle

[Wolfie]

This is why i am not even interested in Alpha because it will be filled with so many stupid FFXI fanboys on the forums that cant move away from their archaic thinking, i will wait for Beta where people that normally doesn't give a flying fk about FFXIV will give an actual good feedback on how to attract them not this hobos that will keep playing regardless of how this game turns out.

I'm actually kind of glad Yoshi said that they're not likely to do much more than stress test and resolve critical bugs in the Alpha, instead of design changes. If they do design changes based on the feedback of people like Preypacer, this game will be dead in another year or two.

Only on the FFXIV boards can you see people arguing FOR making quests and storylines less accessible, and the game more bland.

You're absolutely right. The arguments over these things makes me feel embarrassed to be part of the community.

No, it would just be identical to the game we all played a decade ago.

instead we're getting a game like the one people started to play 8 years ago.

If that's a jab at WOW, it's not a very good one, because WOW today is vastly different from WOW at launch. They actually update every facet of their game to keep up with or get ahead of competition.

The game none of you played, yet act like it slapped your mother?

UGH, we get it, you hate World of Warcraft.

few years ago, I tried playing this game called WoW, after do some quest, I decided I cant stand the graphic, and now ARR definitely not feels like that game.

So let me get this straight, you hate on a game's services and usability improvements... because you didn't like it's art style?

Graphics actually really matter a lot to some people. I recall this community being up in arms over a small handful of animations being removed and some blades of grass.

No, I understand that and they are important to me. But good graphics and good services, high accessibility, and high usability are not mutually exclusive.

Also sorry Aion I just realized now that you said "and now ARR definitely not feels like that game." I'm kind of dyslexic and read that as "now".
