[Misha]

Tanaka... xD Being different (From 11) just for the sake of being different. Instead of taking what worked and improving on it ...

I don't think it's that.

A party search function is a party search function is a party search function. Having a party search feature is not being unusual or eccentric. It's not a case of being different, it's a case of not being functional.

They tried to improve the FFXI search feature but it just isn't functional the way they chose to do it. Well, it might be functional but it certainly isn't user-friendly.

The way it conveys information is so backward.

There should be a way to "search all" and then narrow down the search with different paramaters/filters. That would be the way to go. Currently you have to put in a parameter/filter first in order to begin a search. it's so retarded.

You mean totally do a 360 reverse thinking on FF11's party match system is not "being different for the sake of different?"

They went from a highly polish seek theory to an unfounded gather theory. It's no wonder it sucks. It's like a lawyer resigning his position and try playing doctor.

It's almost a completely different discipline they're trying to make work here.

Could you paraphrase this so that it actually makes sense. I don't even understand how I'm supposed to be convinced by that opinion.
