    Now you want sandbox back.

    Move on guys, anothe giftthread, nothing to see. Bring it on the streets !
    We started off with neither a themepark nor a sandbox. I think it could have gone both ways. However, because there was absolutely nothing in the game at launch, people probably look at it like a sandbox because making their own fun was all they could do. But a sandbox needs sand to be a sandbox. FFXIV was more like an empty plot of land, waiting for either a sandbox or a themepark to be built.

    Also, I wouldn't say no to some questhubs and whatever else they have planned, but I'm just saying that I personally would like a more sandboxy approach. I'm also using the market-potential as a ploy to appeal to SE's commercial sense. I mean, there really are no decent sandbox MMOs, not since Ultima Online. Yoshi himself has said he liked UO and DaoC so it's obvious he is only pushing a WoW-clone agenda because he thinks that's what the market calls for.

    But it doesn't.
