The story in 2.0 is total garbage compared to what we got in 1.0 in the first place. The cutscenes suck. If I have to see one more shitty cutscene with Cid I'll scream. I hate the guy. He's uninteresting and a pretentious douche. Static camera cutscenes bore me to tears... and all people do is stand and yack to each other in every part of the story.

Yack yack yack.
Camera pans upward.
Camera switches to another person.
Yack yack yack.
Camera switches to you.
Yack yack yack.
Then you nod.
FFXIV.

Then you watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rh3NrPOvAfY and cry your eyes out when you realize 1.0 was the real FFXIV, with a shitty game. Now we have a good game with a fake FFXIV.
