Lost faith in Yoshi-P?

ya i agree that from what ive seen so far its way too spammy >< and flashy too like every 2 seconds flashy ws/abilities go off geez LOL. not just that but the camera with mouse ugh the videos ive seen make me dizzy id like the camera on keyboard to be slower or if not have an option for camera speed like we did in 1.0.
seems 2.0 still has a lot of work to go thru before its ready to sell.

It's just a different kind of game now. The "standard" as they say. I don't particularly agree with this so called standard but It's what they're going with. I have a good feeling they're basically taking WoW's systems because they see it as the safe thing to do. They want money so I don't blame them, but it's kind of scary because already a bunch of MMO's have tried doing that, and failed. The Final Fantasy name will carry it farther than those games, but we'll have to hope it's good enough to actually be successful and most of all enjoyable to Final Fantasy fans, not just a bunch of WoW players. The thing is, WoW people don't want another WoW. If they want another game they want something different. We'll see what happens.

Just my opinion here, but in my estimation the Final Fantasy name won't carry this game any further than it already has. We all know with each new title a bunch of fans seem to drop off. And 1.0 was probably one of the biggest MMO flops of the past decade. This game has one foot in the grave, and the other not far behind. It's going to take more than a "Final Fantasy" stamp just to drag the game out of it's early grave, much less carry it for another 5-10 years. Again, Yoshida appears to be on a good track, but it's too early to say one way or another if the game will have what it takes to build and maintain steam though.

As for the poster worried about camera speed, if they were controlling the camera like I do (with the mouse mainly) the camera's speed would be based off mouse's sensitivity and how fast your hand motion is. Some things are still a little jerky/choppy but it's also still Alpha phase. There are a lot of things yet to be added, and I'm sure there will be a lot of refining before the game goes live. I'll remember that concern next time I log in though, I never thought to look. Might be worth putting a note about it on the other forum.
