This is what i feel SE NEEDS to do to save this game.
1. Add in the Airship and Chocobo. Because all this walking is so lame. With Anima regeneration so slow i never leave Ul'Dah
2.Do away with the Battle Regiment and bring back the Skill Chain and magic burst.
3. Add EXP/SP chains.
4.Make gear level restriced.
5. Lower the damage rate in witch your gear/weapon breaks
6. Add the Auction House
7. Add a Mog House or some place that we can call our own place
8. If your a class you should have total access to all abilities in that class. then limit the ones from other class's to add in to your curent class. ( example if your a mage you should be able to use all your spells not just pick and choose )
9.The New agro mark on the Monsters is ghetto! I mean im sorry but if your a total noob and cant remember what mob is agressive and what mob isent then why are you playing? This is totaly dumbing down the game in my opinion
10. Add a send function. ( be able to send LS members or friends items,gear ext. without haveing to trade it directly to them)
11. The Linkshell. Ok a few things with this. 1. Can we clean up the LS? i mean if you have a LS with say 50 people and 20 are on your LS will show all 50 people wether there on or not. Lets clean up that clutter. Also the colors can we add a color HUE? sooner or later everyone will start to look like everyone else haveing 2 base colors and 5 topical colors isent much of an option
12.Add more beast tribes that wonder the area. Thers some low level Gobs but i swear theres only 3 that pop in one area. Unless you wonder to the level 60 ones. So add more beastman that wonder the areas
13. Do away with the Fatigue system. This system isent really doing anything to slow down anyones progression. Rather it is annoying people. Like example im on lancer i dont really level it for 3 days but i have ben farming with it. i do 2 leves and boom im yellow and in surplus. But then 2 days later im not.
14. Dont Dumb down the game. What killed 11 was how it got dumbed down. example of dumbing down 14? look at #9
15. Player serch function. can i have it? better yet can i have one that accualy works
these are just 15 things off the top of my head. SE you guys are trying to hard in my opinion. You totaly got away from what works. Pick up FF11 and play it see the ease of things like macros , the UI , the over all flow of the game. Then think to your selves now why arnt we doing this in 14? Im not saying make 14 like 11. What im saying is you dont need to reenvent the wheel when it was round to start with. Agree or dissagree? All im saying is if you SE want to save this game and make it into the game we all hoped it would be and hopefully will be. Dont get away from what made it great to start with. Get back to the Basics a house needs a foundation before you can build it. I hope you guys figure that out
