Finally, it's been said! I mean, it's gotten to the point where people would call an mmo a WoW clone or copy paste if you use a keyboard and mouse to play it.

It's not whether or not it brings anything super-dee-duper new or unseen by anyone, it's whether or not the game is successful in what it does bring. People are excited for the housing features, the FATEs, the summoning class, and everything else ARR is bringing to the game. And rightly so, from what I've seen, it looks great. All of these nice features coupled with the fact that it's a Final Fantasy game, and imo you've got a winning combination. The "nothing new" finger pointing is so, well, pointless. lol

Don't forget that these same people think that housing is pointless and unneeded. So, on top of calling it copy paste, they cast down the new things as stupid or dumb.

Not sure if you're talking about players or Blizzard. Blizzard has been opposed to housing because they believe it isolates the player from game world, and thus makes for a lonelier experience for players. They want new players to see cities that are alive and worlds that have people in them to prevent psychological issues of a dead game that can occur when you're in a game.

I don't agree with their position but to say they find it pointless, stupid, or dumb, would be a fraudulent statement.
