Just wait, it will get better!

I've been seeing this said since Sept 30, 2010.

And it has. I don't see your point.

And it has. I don't see your point.

Where has it improved? I would really, REALLY like to know.

Nope, worse.

[Conradus]

Nope, worse.

Sorry you feel that way. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

[Keres]

Nope, worse.

Did you play at 1.0 launch? Because I have a really hard time believing that anybody here would actually consider 1.00 of this game to be anywhere near as good as what we have now, much less "better." I know that nostalgia goggles are quite a thing, but do you remember the 2+ second menu delay involved in every single UI command? How it would take 5+ minutes to sell off your vendor trash? How finding anything on the market wards involved manually walking from retainer to retainer, targeting them, opening the system menu, selecting "Check", browsing their inventory, closing the menu, then repeating dozens of times? How it was pretty much impossible to reliably compare prices on anything? How there was literally nothing to do but levequests?

I can totally respect an opinion wherein someone doesn't like the style of the game today, but glossing over the huge number fundamental problems that the original game had is pretty crazy.

This. ARR is a vast improvement upon 1.0 and 1.23. But the problem is that unrealistic people expect that a 2 month old MMO should have the same amount of content as a 10 year old game. Completely ridiculous expectation.

I don't know of many people who complained in FFXI at (NA...assuming RoZ) launch. The only "hate" back then was there was "too much" to do.

That was because FFXI was out for a year in Japan before it was sold in western countries.

I miss the time where it took months to hit level cap.

You're in the minority. Hell, even FFXI doesn't take more than a couple days to a week to cap now.

If you use the Abyssea Method ( ruined the game). If I still played I still wouldn't resort to that.

How many major patches has there been so far?
