Can we have Tanaka back now?

**Razzle** · 10-23-2014 02:33 AM

Okay, we learned our lesson, you can put Tanaka back in now!

But really, now I can say confidently that I liked the game much more and to where it was heading, during 1.0.

IMO all it needed is UI upgrade, nothing else. True the maps were copy pasted, but also much larger.

Give me 1.0 with manqotes, working UI (DF, PF etc) and done... I'm sure with a few content updates it'd be amazing!

What do you guys think?

Here's a quick-peek of what we will never have: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cW56J8Gc5A

We'll get larger zones in 3.0, airships, we've already toyed around with cannons, and we're still waiting for cake, but the cake is probably a lie.

Not that I hate Tanaka, he did get set up with the bomb - on record did not want to release the game yet but was forced to. I miss some of the more mature elements of 1.0, but that isn't to say they can't be reimplemented (at least some, bikini snowmen tanks are kind of stuck with it now.. XD).

Right... except Tanaka implemented none of the things you just mentioned as an improvement?

1. Tanaka believed that despite the massive amount of feedbacks during alpha and beta, his game was ready to launch with things (intended or not) like, CNJ can self cure in town to lv50.
2. He believed that there should be skills like Aegis Boon and others that were so powerful. When these skills are used/cross-classed properly, people can solo things that are meant to be group content. THMs could solo pretty much everything before the implementation of Dzemael Darkhold.
3. He also believed leveling up crafting means repeating the same synth from start to finish. Example: Armorer basically make iron plates from mid 20s all the way to 50.
4. He also thought that leveling should mean praying to RNG for skill ups instead of exp per mob.

The list goes on, but I think you get the idea.

The sad part is most people here were introduced to MMOs through WoW, or through this game. They prefer the claustrophobic world, instanced-everything, and hollow, plastic-y feeling. They don't want an open world, danger, or being forced to socialize to progress. They just wanna see their shiny increased numbers on the next iLvl of equipment, and pay for flashy mounts on the cash shop.

Right, because 2.0 is actually 1.0 but with...

Let him move on.
I would have liked to see where 1.0 was eventually headed, but you know how it is.

I'm waiting to see Ishgard. After that, I dunno. I might keep playing or I might just move on myself.

People are not allowed to enjoy things you don't like I take it?

I think it would be nice to have 1.0 back as a free to play. I never really got into the game but wish I made more of an effort.

I simply pointed out that all the things you mentioned as needed to make 1.0 amazing wasn't implemented by Tanaka.
