My FC is going back to FFXI... FFXIV FAIL

[Pylfer]

FF11 is all about nostalgia. That's about it. When people go back to it and see that the game is not the same as it was they will lose interest. Obviously this is a generalization but it's more or less true.

Also, wayyyyyyyyyyy tired of people complaining about how this game sucks when it's been officially released for just about 4 months and we've already had 1 major content update and will be getting another one soon... Would you all prefer it if the game changed to "Fight X monster, gain 100 out of 200,000 exp for level 15, gain no Gil and no loot, rinse and repeat, try and make money, buy gear that is outrageously priced, have gated content cause there's no more DF and finding a group is basically 'sit in shout chat screaming "LF tank healer DPS for sastasha" and then praying that someone responds in an hour or two before you have to go to school/work/bed."

Yeah, sounds like a blast.

The thing is that it never was the way they remembered it and every time I see some FF xi fantard wax poetic about the 'good old days' I have to wonder if we were playing the same game because the game was more luck oriented than it is now rather than skill. And when the game went to skill oriented game play with Abyssea they screamed bloody murder despite the fact that they asked for skill based game play.

Yeah, sounds like a blast.

About as much fun as gathering together every week or so to camp an HNM that may or may not pop and competing for 'who has the best bot' for a mob that even if you beat it might not reward you with anything.
