Riding Chocobos in town?

I was using 'you' as a collective noun for the general FFXIV forum-whiner, the ones who ushered in such memorable changes like enormous mobs and zero mob behaviour. Don't take it personally, kid.

With the exception of one or two (such as skeletons), I vastly prefer the mob size increase.

In fact I think that's one of the subtle changes that for some reason made me continue playing this game up until now because before it was ridiculous. Half the creatures didn't feel like a threat at all and I could hardly see some of the enemies.

Not only do the enlarged enemies look better but they're obviously present and they actually seem like a threat.

I get the impression you haven't even played another FF game before because you've repeatedly complained about many posters using the excuse "Final Fantasy"-like. Hey, guess what, it's true. Last time I checked, this game is an FF game, being an MMO second. There's a few FF games that have deviated from the core elements of the franchise, where did those end up? Oh yeah, terrible ratings and terrible sales. Funny, XIV is in that category.

So, since the franchise has been raped so much with so many ridiculous deviations, and since this game is in trouble, it would only make sense to incorporate certain elements and maintain a core feel from the previous FF games. Not other MMOs. Wow, you might even get some non-MMO FF players to join the game. Wouldn't that be something? There's only several million of them.

Large fantasy-esque and sometimes outrageous enemies tend to be an element present throughout the FF series.

Take your scorn for the people who make such arguments and shove it up your backside.
