how can end game be epic if we can hit multiple enemys?

XIV will never have epic fights, it will have good ones and some that require some tactics, but not ever epic. Nore was XI ever ever ever in anyway Epic.

God of War is Epic...

exactly, cool camera angles, amazing sound effects and strictly strategic battles are what makes games epic these days, they have to resemble movies.

On what basis do you think it will never be epic? Because the game itself? Or SE's inability to provide meaningful content?

hahaha.

No MMO I find really "Epic". Not even TERA.

But ye like this guy said:

God this is pointless. Everyone has opinions on what is "Epic" I for one think the XI end game content was just fine. I did not play wow but I did play LOTRO, and it was too easy to get gear. I want goals, and SE can deliver once they fix the game, right now.... not so much.

Everyone has their own opinion/definition of what Epic is.

Zilart & CoP had some very cool story, related, boss encounters, that made me feel like a kid again. Music added with the atmosphere make for any epic fight, If the SE can mimic the story & atmosphere FFXI had , with its boss encounters, FFXIV will be in good shape.

This is an RPG MMO, so going off that, anything that reminds me of classic rpg, pen paper D&D is doing it right... I love that feel. This is not an action game like DMC or God of War, some fans do like the traditional way of rpg'n.

This was one of my favorite battles in FFXI:

Your point would be alot more valid if it wasnt for the fact nukes suck damage wise compared to melees focusing on one mob. You can quote me on this, as a mage that does end game. Dotting still does more damage than nukes do

Epic is watership down

what ever you can do with 40 people i can do alone, remember the whole point to ffxiv solo = group.
you can reach the cap to lv50 alone and most likely future cap's , i bet there gonna do it with end game as well. MMO's are made for noobs now the second of it being remotely challenging people are gonna whine and say the game sucks then go away, SE just wants money more people more money so there making it where anyone can get to the top with out effort.

every MMO that you used need skill to finsh things they tossed it out the window now every thing is bum rush and win, hardcore dont exist anymore.

This isn't about XIV becoming XI-2, but XIV from the start should have evolved from what made XI great instead of focusing on dumbing their content down to the point where even 'casual' players are already bored.

you got it.

there plenty of stuff that was in ffxi that they could of re-used and made it its own thing, hell leves are the ffxiv version of fileds of valor quest. and thats the main catch to the game. dont see why they can do it to other things like ffxi's player search was the best thing to mmo's and they decided to dump it and make a shitty one for us.

but square is even using WOW terms with makes me think if they even care about making the game more than a monthly cash cow. even if populations are 50k people playing there still making 650K a month thats not bad when they start charging money
