lol I find this funny the only one I seem to see here who suffered on ffxi is YOU, those who post these threads obviously enjoyed it if they want it back
Then go play it. Don't mess up my game.
I tried playing XI, and hated every second of it. It just wasn't what I wanted out of an MMO experience. I sure as hell didn't go on the XI forums and complain and insist they change the game to be more like Guild Wars (a game from around the same time period that I would consider incredibly fun) or World of Warcraft, I cancelled my subscription and never went back. So... if you don't like XIV... and you like XI... why are you here? Go play your game. I'll play mine. We'll both be happy.
*yawn* you are boring me with this tale ufufu, and do you ever post anything decent? most posts ive seen of you are just causing issues, but ya wether you like or not 14 is gonna change how it is who knows, if u read these posts you would know the actual convo isn't to make 14 ffxi soo you are a bit behind posting this, plz go back read the posts til now and then post something worth readin.Then go play it. Don't mess up my game.

Calling someone ignorant because they don't feel the same way as you about FFXI and FFXIV? Hmmm, what kind of name could we give a person like that? I guess i'll leave that to others to decide. But i agree with a lot of what the OP said, NM's sure would be nice to have added into the game. Would be nice to have other options.The OP is just nostalgic and ignorant. FFXI was about forming a 6 man party and getting 4k an hour and maybe getting 1 level per weekend. Until SE made it easier.
Form a group in FFXIV and chain monsters and it will be better than FFXI exp rate. The only complaint I see is that it isn't BEST. And where would we be if doing a dungeon was best exp, doing a fate was best exp, and partying was best exp and soloing was best exp?`Because that is what the players keep requesting. "GIVE ME BEST EXP".
Lol why does every single thread about this turn into people insulting each other over things the devs already said No to?
I totally agree! FFXI was my first MMO and i have a lot of great memories from the 6 and a half years i played. And that's my issue with FFXIV. I don't see anything in this game that will make me talk or think about it years after i stop playing, like i still do about FFXI. I quit soon after the first Abyssea expansion, didn't like the direction they were taking @ all.![]()

Part of it really is the nostalgic effect. Yes I enjoyed FFXI, but it also did have alot of things that I would no longer put up with (3 hour waits for parties). It is the Final Fantasy setting and classes and lore that I love but many of the game mechanics left me wanting. In gaming as a whole we often look back and say how it was better in the old days. In reality it usually wasn't. We complain about how new games are stale yet games of all kinds/styles are being created on level never seen before.I totally agree!

I especially think if it is the first or second MMO you really get into it will have a more lasting effect on you. In the following MMO's one plays the experiences aren't as new and exciting. It kind of feels like been there done that. Many are getting burned out on MMO's in general. They played x game for years yet now find themselves jumping from MMO to MMO looking to recapture those old glorious moments. Most of my best MMO memories didn't come until after at least the first couple expansions or content updates (I took breaks from the game) . Most of these also centered around having a great group of friends to play with.
*The above comes from my own experiences with MMO's.
