1.X's problem was the copy paste world and massive lack of content overall.

At the end of it.. honestly I can say the content it had is far better then what we have here in almost everyway there was just way way less of it.

Main issues I have with 2.0 are design philosophys which I disagree with, so I do not see it improving much at all. But the bigest things XIV 1.X did right was the story cutscenes, gear progression, relic, and open world content (What was there of it)
