World of Warcraft is a rigid game, and it's supremely boring. It doesn't matter which class you choose, there's a specific ability or spell rotation you have to use, specific stats have to have on your armor, and you can never compensate for your weaknesses. You will always easily kill certain other classes, and be easily killed by others. There's a little enjoyment in exploring the different classes and learning to use them, but there's absolutely nothing beyond that. You are your class, and it defines what you can do.

I don't want to play that game, and I don't want to see FFXIV became that game.
LIked. Right on!
