Final Fantasy XIV 1.23b - Would you Play it if Available?

[Spy]

They could always have a expansion where we go back in time to see 1.0. Not sure how that going to work seeing how it be all copy/paste area so it cant be 100% 1.0 even tho the game look nice the area was really copy/paste everywhere.

LMAO sad but true. (If people aren't familiar with FFXIV 1.0's copy-pasta maps click <-that link. The guy did a funny montage to show it)

That is one of the few things I don't miss about the game

I wouldnt mind there being a video on the events of the previous game to give us a more in depth tale of the story.

With that in mind I probably wouldn't play it. Mostly due to time constraints though as one MMORPG is more than enough for me.

You aren't looking hard enough. I cleared the story (the achievement is right there), got 3 jobs to max level, killed Ifrit, got some DL pieces (oh right, those last 3 don't have achievements). Again, all you're going by is achievements, which I didn't bother with. That took me 3 months. Another, and it would have all been cleared, save for the things that didn't matter like behests and hamlets, which, btw, were just FATEs with crafting and gathering.

You absolutely do not understand what I'm saying about the MB if all you think I'm talking about is how you search. Remember how you had to claim a spot in the markets or you couldn't sell anything? That's what I mean.

Wish Granted (This is Gridania's
Here's Ul'dah's
And Limsa's

Though, those only cover the main scenario, and not side quests.

OH! and this guy does an AMAZING job on FFXIV lore videos! I could just listen to his voice all day <3

[CGMidlander]

I'd like to run around and soak up some lore.
It's probably not something I'd play long term though. The combat looks extremely dull and drawn out.

1.23 was acceptable.
But there were still many issues, like animation-lock, boring maps, 5 minute teleport queue time during the Atamos event, max. limit of 30 visible enemies & characters.
And seperate city markets. Everybody use the Uldah market because nobody buy in the other city. Everybody buy in Uldah, because nobody sell in the other cities. Result were 2 empty city markets and 1 overcrowded city market were a competition about retainer space started (*sorry, the market is full currently. Please try to send you retainer to the market to a later time").

What was good were the faction leves, the dungeons, the primal fights and the Nael van Darnus fight.

[Sakei]

No, I tried the original game, and it was terrible.

[Zysets]

I would love to play 1.0 if it meant being able to go through the story scenes pre-calamity. I never did play 1.0 because my computer was terrible, and despite knowing the events of the original, I'd love to play through them myself.
But it's purely for story purposes, the gameplay itself doesn't interest me all that much.

[Barimu]

I'd much rather prefer FFXI pre-abyssea.

[Zaft]

You all need to stop parrotting the same nonsense over and over. It's not cool anymore to say how bad 1.0 was.

We get it. You didn't like the game. Please find something constructive to say.

If it wasn't horrible, maybe it wouldn't be "parroted" over and over.
