FFXI-2 is on it's way!

[Onidemon]

and it's called FFXIV....

I'm done with this game. Yoshi-p and his buddies either have no clue of what they're doing or they just caved in to to all the FFXI whinners who keep begging for a clone. And well they have it.

The game was playable before 1.19. I had lots of good times, with friends and SOLO.
Now i'm doing 24 dmg everytime i hit? WTF? First they tell me it's because of old gear... fine i upgrade... guess what? Not much of a difference.

SOLO in this game is dead and with this latest patch they put the last nail in the coffin for casuals.

Other failed MMO managed to fix themselves over time with patches but SE just shot themselves in the foot with every new patch they put out.

If i wanted to have 10 of my friends help me kill a mob 2 levels above my own i would go play FFXI and not play another game pretending to be something it's not.

Too bad i really had high hopes for this and was willing to be understanding when they say we should try and get used to the new gameplay but this is ridiculous...

Edit: First off i didn't intend to say that Solo was dead in this game. It's there but it's not enjoyable. With my old gear it wasn't playable and now that i upgraded to non-dated stuff, it's better but it still takes forever to complete a leve or gain a reasonable amount of exp.

I understand MMOS are meant to be played together and i do whenever i have the time but the issues is that most of the time i don't. I have a 40h/week job, i have a gf and we go out a lot, we do activities together, i go to the gym 3-4 times a week for 2h each time. After all this i only have 1 or 2 hours here and there to play and at the rate i gain exp now it's just not enjoyable for me.

I play a tank and i want to feel the power of a tank... i want to be able to take on mobs higher then me and be able to take on 3-4 mobs at the same times. But struggling to take out a lvl 30 Aldgoat when i'm 28 is not my idea of what a tank can do.

i used to play wow and what i liked about it is that i could just logon and quickly get on with my things and the end of 1 hour i did progress quite well. I don't feel that i can do that in FFXIV anymore and this is what is pissing me off.

Am i doing something wrong? Maybe, but what? If gear is not the answer then what is? I used the same abilities that i used to before and which worked mighty well before 1.19.

Anyways... that being said.... 2.0 looks f$%#$ awesome... i did not see that coming. It may still be a year till we can get our hands on it but from what i've seen it looks worth it. Just hoping that they make the solo/casual experience a bit easier by then.

Good riddance. If you're hitting for 24 damage at 28, guess what? You're doing it wrong. Basically: solo is fine and FFXIV isn't anything like FFXI even if it was group onry.

Funny, I've had no problem soloing at 38. Perhaps you just aren't capable of adapting to change.

What brand of cream cheese did you use? I like Philadelphia myself.

Thanks god if that is true...I never had a chance to play FF XI because I was in college back then..

Philadelphia, regular, all the way. Had some envious coworkers today when I was walking around with that bagel.
