Rate FFXIV 1 to 10

I couldn't take you seriously after this because, I assume, when you say graphics, what you really mean is Mi'qote body shape, as the game graphically looks quite a bit better than ver. 1.

The graphics have been downgraded w/ ARR(not just the asses) for PS3/low-end PC support. It seems like texture resolution took the brunt of it. However, they did add (full) dynamic lighting so graphics haven't been downgraded across the board.

From what I can tell, only character textures have been downgraded, everything else has been upgraded. The textures in the world are a lot better.

8.5/10

I don't have 'ping issues' or problems with the 'netcode' or whatever else everyone fabricates because they suck at dodging.

I'm having lots of fun, the game is beautiful. Crafting has come a long way since 1.0, but it's a little bit too easy right now. I really miss party grind dynamics, and feel that if there was open world exp parties I could bump this to 10. I'm more of a casual than in my XI days though, so this may be a good thing.

I'll be a long-time subscriber, will probably play this for years. Nothing else interests me in the slightest, game-wise.

likes

maps. 100% improvement from 1.0
crafting. hated alt tabbing to look up mats for synths
gathering. lots better then 1.0
dyed gear. love this just wish i could dye more. a white set of darklight would be sexy
UI. not a big fan of the boxes everywhere but it works.
gear change. like switching gear with out taking 5 mins every time
DF. i actualy like this. what i dont like is the ppl comming in bitching about how long it takes and treating new ppl like shit because its there first time. if your so hot and so elite run with your free copany you are ruining the game for everyone. and stop clogging the DF with your nerd rage.

8.

Would be a 10 with a lot more content

[Peprika]

as always , squareenix is capable of creating a visually impressive aesthetic,

however everything after that falls flat on its face...

game balance
game mechanics
difficulty curves
variety

all these categories bring it down to i wanna say a 5/10 or 6/10

call me crazy but 1.0 was better then 2.0 in a few ways... lol

The way it is now? 6. Game has huge potential but not enough content at lvl 50, too much grinding in one place with little gil reward, some basic quality of life things are missing and 2 BROKEN classes because of the pet ai and lack of tools to handle pets manually. If pets are not fixed in 2.1 i will no longer be interested in playing this game.
