Boring Endgame

[VargasVermillion]

I think a lot of us had different ideas on what was supposed to happen with Heavensward and new content, but I agree, Final Fantasy WoW was not what people had in mind.

Also, it's one of the few times the live letter has not really thrown water to douse the fires so to speak.

Except WoW actually handled content well once upon a time. You know rather than making interesting game play changes lets focus more on getting pet glamours because SMNs pets look ugly.

What's this? Did i miss something? Are we comparing this to WoW now?

Well let me tell you, this game will not sink so low to WoW's current level until they introduce another major patch that is dedicated to selfies and twitter.

They couldn't even give the patch an official name.

I said 'once upon a time' not now. Besides the game is basically WoW with some minor differences, So comparisons will always be made. It's a better game than current WoW but is it a better game than older WoW?

Yes lol wow had 0 creativity everyone ran around looking the same and the character models just plan ugly {it took them till 2015 to fix the models} Don't get me wrong wow is the grandfather of mmo games it had very good ideas and very fun events {run of the zombies or headless horse man} but what made it stick around was it's big ass world. ff is not as big by any means but has that spark that makes you wanna keep playing {or me at least} but can it keep it? who knows time will tell

How about classes, dungeons and raids? their design, scale, mechanics? how do these hold up in XIV by comparison? Visuals are irrelevant and a matter of preference.

Y Don't get me wrong wow is the grandfather of mmo games

If i was a GM i will perma-ban you after write that ._. (j/k). But anyway, that statement is totally totally false.

The appearace of the characters was your only gripe?

It's a 10 year old game. That's like faulting FFXI for the same reason.

(And honestly the new character models are sort of a train wreck. Some turned out great, but others need serious facial adjustment)

I can answer this as I have played and greatly enjoyed "older WoW". It was the best game ever! Please let's not ask FF14 to surpass it, I am not saying it's impossible, but it's very, very hard.
FF14 is better than current WoW, and way better than any other game in the field. That's enough for me!
