What would you want to bring over from FFXI to FFXIV?

Read every post in this thread. Was wonderful trip down memory lane. It was like it was 2003 again, and I was 23 drinking cheap beer and camping NMs. Thank you all.

I would love to see

Unique gear (occasionally attacks 2-3 times) although in this game, it may just increase the damage of a single skill. I would still take it.
DNC!

I saw someone mention that XI is being ported to android for mobile use; I will be trying that.

Just a warning, from the look of it, it's not going to be the XI we knew, especially since Nexon is getting their hands into it :/

TBH I do not think I would want the FFXI I knew, on a mobile platform.

Ok, understood. A game like XI would fail in today's market. Whether or not you want to blame laziness or those darn kids is really immaterial. In an age where the most popular gaming platform is the mobile device, you need to capture attention quickly and provide new gamers incentive to stay. This is simply economics at work my friend and not the core value system that we had in gaming 15 years ago. FFXI was popular a decade and a half ago! That's forever in tech time. I still don't understand why we look at that game with such blinders on.

There were serious problems with that game that were never addressed, and I loved it anyway. I payed that sub fee for over ten years, and enjoyed every second of it. That said, I do look back at the game and see some serious errors in the game's structure that would make it fail in today's market.


Anywho, I would love to see the auction bidding system return. I really liked how the auction house was blind in XI. It provided a more aggressive pricing strategem with a high risk/reward. I spent alot of time on the auction house trying to get the best price on things.

Definitely skill chains. I would have loved to have a system with everyone having individual limit breaks that can chain into one another for greater effects.

I don't know if it's Been mentioned Already But the ability to send Items to alts holy crap I would love that definitely.

Yinyang Robe, because I never got it in 11. Rolls were always horrible, never dropped in duo with bst friend. Wiped an entire IRON alliance and then when it did drop went to a person who mained THF and then decided to put it away and go to RDM. Then it went down the list of people who were favorites and didn't have SMN even leveled but they were thinking about it.
