    Not trying to be rude just saying you could have made this much short but i do agree what you saying for the most part.

    You may be right about this Zenaku. I think the long read is keeping ppl from replying. Maybe he should have separated it into several posts, and put them in different categories.

    I actually say all the time "bring this and that from FFXI" but this time i must say hell no, i dont see any problem with the pace of battle i get bored everytime i tried to play FFXI again, i dont know if you are being sarcastic or something, but what makes you think that bringing back the slow pace of battle will upgrade the game, it is really awesome to have a system where you can go to the bathroom while fighting a mob (im being sarcastic btw) even the Battle regimen was a good way to replace Skillchains.

    I remember seeing the video of FFXIV i was excited to see how the mage would enfire the arrow of the archer, in a way its something like that the only thing that in my op. could upgrade the BR's is to make it in a way were you can set the ws you want to use and take that tp from you and let you keep using abbilities and weapon skills, todays game are a lot faster than FFXI is, that doesnt mean you cant do strategy in real time, thats why we have better voice chats now.

    I don't know if you read the same thread as I did, but the OP didn't ask for an XI clone, dude:

    However, because of the need to spam cures, attacks, abilities, party buffs, and even TP, the auto-attack feature did very little to resolve the enormous issues concerning the battle system -it is too fast-paced. There is very little time to chat, do homework, or even eat -let alone go to the bathroom, while partying. More steps must be taken in order to dramatically reduce the battle pace
    That's the last thing he said in the battle system paragraph. You're just like every other person out there: black and white, shitty or perfect, spam or 30 min wait times. OP is right. The game is too fast-paced right now. It doesn't need to be an XI clone, but it needs to be something close to it.

    Maybe you didnt play FFXI, if you did you know that what the Op. is asking, is to have a clone of FFXI, everything he says reflects the same restriction FFXI had, its not too fast paced if youre not being able to strategize with more battle speed then is your problem. You have a lot of options of voice chat you can talk at any time to keep strategy of the fights in real time as best as they can be. And whats all about spaming? i dont spam i play archer and i dont spam light shots in fights i actually use different set of skills on rotations and change a few things depending on how the fight evolves, if you kill mobs almost of your same range well maybe theres the problem, but if you actually have tried to kill mobs 20 ranks over you at least you will notice the fight last a lot longer, i play as gladiator too, and find the tanking job to be really great because you are immerse at all times in the fights, i dont want those fights we had in XI that you could actually go to the bathroom and after being back the fight was still going and everything is doing great as if you were there because nobody could use a damn ws or the recast timers for the abbilities were too long, and yes i read the wall of text he just wrote, and i say it again NO.
