SE enough of the treadmill, please make the game more interesting!

Hmm it's been long said that Yoshi wants to reboot FFXIV with 2.x being a simple foundation to support more complex ideas that could be implemented in the future. Yea I get that it's been over a year and the treadmilling is getting a bit stale but it's been confirmed that they plan to factor in user feedback to add unique gear stats/abilities (during the fanfest). Yoshi is just playing a very safe first year for FFXIV relaunch and don't want to break the balance when he and his team can't afford to.

Having stuffs on the level of leaping boots and emp pin from FFXI that was more relevant and ridiculously camped more than other gears 60 levels later is just not what Yoshi and us as players should shoot for. However, now that lvl1-50, story mode, and a lot of endgame progression is established, they have more room to work in unique items/gear set effect come expansion.

The expansion will also feature more dangerous zones that so many old school MMO-ers were clamoring for (confirmed in interview). I won't say that we shouldn't be impatient and not critique the quality of the current gameplay but just know that a lot of good ideas that most of us want in game have been heard and will most likely be implemented by expansion. Oh and let's not forget that 2.45/2.5 will feature a lot more social friendly side-games with the introduction of the gold saucer. So let's at least look forward to it a little longer?

they also said they would be making this game for casual gamers, with endgame content for hardcore players, they also said they will be adding in FC alliance, so you can team up with another fc so small fcs wouldnt be required to merge. yoshi also said housing would be affordable. there are many other things they said will happen.
still havent see some of these things and until it happens, i dont think we should pressume anything SE staff says is true until its implemented

I don't know how you go about seeing ANYTHING positive in life with this kind of outlook...It's always just black, no white, no grey with the type of person you are.
