Top 10 Changes You Want To See

[Pyrix]

I have to disagree with the people saying "more stuff like FFXI", this game isn't supposed to be FFXI 2.0! I like the different class names. Stop trying to fall into complacency.

I agree with you, however let's not that FFXI also has many features that could be well incorporated in the context of FFXIV.
I just hope that the developers are paying attention to this thread.
Maybe I should compile everyone's opinion and make a chart... haha.

[Yellow]

1. Jumping
2. Less menus
3. Smoother fighting (Faster ATB)
4. Changeable Key bindings?
5. ATB similar to FF13 where you can select multiple abilities instead of spamming a key
6. Something to help beginners understand how to play/start.
7. Slightly easier starting zones?
8. The ability to select all the loot you want/loot all.
9. A moveable world map -- I don't like being limited to staring at a radius around my character :< I have a map. Let me see the whole damn thing ^_^
10. Auction house -- But fees to use Auction House -- Free to stand around :]
(11. ADD A CARD GAME Like FF8 <3)

This list is more of a 1 - Most important 10 - Not as important as 1

chocobos!!!

[Seif]

1. Take out the leve system seriously almost everyone seems to hate it so why are you hell-bent on focusing the most disliked aspect of the game? Make proper varied story-based content instead with player freedom on how to complete them. See every other Ff title you've made so far for reference. (except XIII naturally)

2.The quests suck. There are no cutscenes and the writing and gameplay are amateurish. You can do better, we've seen it.

3. The environments look boring again see every other FF title you've made for reference on what "unique" means.

4. The lack of death penalty affects every aspect of gameplay. Do something DRASTIC about it.

5. All the systems are designed to take away the freedom of choice.

6.All the crafting classes feel the same.

7. The main storyline makes no sense at all. Where did all your good writers go?

8. As there are only 4 main zones the music is REALLY repetitive. You've designed leves to keep the player in one zone for the whole play-session which makes this fault even worse.

9. If you put some stuff to see in areas then please take out anima it makes the game really disconnected and give us some Chocobos to breed and to use.(that sounds so wrong)

10.All the battles look and feel really child-like apparently you're already aware of this.

1. Take out the leve system seriously almost everyone seems to hate it ...

Eh?! But I like the leve system, it is very useful for casual gamers or random casual gaming sessions. I know more who like leve than people who don't. They don't have to take it away, you can simply walk away from the leve desk and you are done, if you don't like leve of course.

EDIT: Obviously, I never stated they can't add quests and other questing methods. The more questing choices (standard quests, leve quests, etc), the better.

[HayaHime]

1. Job System.

2. Teleport spells.

3. Something like MogHouse.

4. chocobo.

5. AF gear.

6. Merit point system.

7. End-game event's similar to die-namis/limbus/etc...

8. New special areas you can't access unless you finish chain of missions/quests. (like CoP/zilart area's)

9. Relic weapon. (I want it to be hard to get like in ffxi)

10. Delivery System.
