FFXI-2 is on it's way!

[Ashiee]

Really...

I didn't bother to read more then the first sentence of the OP, but I'm guessing they're crying because this game is "becoming to much like FFXI"...

Really? Left and right I hear either "This games becoming to much like WoW" or "This games becoming to much like FFXI!" FFXIV isn't becoming like anything. Final Fantasy 14, is a game that's based off the Final Fantasy world, so of course they are going to consider adding things such as CLASSIC Final Fantasy jobs (these jobs were in place before 11).

They are trying to make FFXIV into a good game, and adding elements from some popular games that have been working (just because they are adding a non-server specific party search, everyone thinks the sky is falling and calling this game a WoW clone) .

Short little rant, I'm done, just annoying reading this stuff all the time.

<sarcasm>"They actually implemented the changes to combat that they have been talking about for months and now I can't kill things 12 levels higher than me because I don't understand what those changes were or why they were made. I QUIT!!!!!!"</sarcasm>

i said 2 level not 12. and yes i should be able to kill stuff higher then me, maybe not 10lvl+ but mobs that are 5 lvl above my own should be difficult and challenging but not impossible. Hell as a tank i should be able to take on 2 mobs with 5 lvl above me and still finish the fight with 30-20% of my hp left.

See ya, OP!!!

Solo'ing is harder now for certain classes/playstyles. Not impossible. But especially at lower levels it is very harder where all of your dmg/hp/everything has been cut to a fraction of what it was. Where as higher levels are better off now eh?

Crafting at low levels i've noticed is especially much more of a chore now.

FFXI-2. I want it.

I think everyone needs to stop bitching tbh, because the revamp looks AMAZING and more than I was expecting from the Final Fantasy XIV team. I had no idea any of this was going on behind the scenes and I'm just in awe.

I am also SO happy to hear that seamless areas are being abolished. I'd prefer more compact, dynamic, themed zones over huge spaces of nothingness any day - or you know, there's a tree, there's a tree, there's a rock, there's a valley, there's a rock, there's a tree... Do I care about this? No. Zone changes will never become out-dated. I mean, can you imagine something like Mass Effect 2 without zone changes? I don't want to even think about that.

SE has lost a whole load of money with this game. You can't honestly expect them to not change the game entirely. The whole game has been one of the biggest embarrassments Square Enix has ever had to deal with. Anyone who doesn't like it can leave the game frankly, if you're simply refusing to accept that the game needs to change so SE can actually make some money for the game you're playing for free.

Good on you Square Enix!

P.S. Every ****ing MMO has auto-attack, get over it.

I can feel the collective butthurt oozing from this thread.

So much whining, it makes me recoil in disgust. Like when someone scratches a plate with a fork.

The new concept art and screenshot looks amazing!! I'm really looking forward to the new 2.0 patch. But I think my friends won't be satisfied enough to start paying next month. I guess I'll have to hold on and hope they want to rejoin when it gets released.

I belive a video, showing a sneak peek of the new 2.0 patch, would convince more players to pay for what is coming.

Yup 2.0 looks breath taking... that's what it should have looked like at release. But no, i won't be paying for the game next month that's for sure. I understand why they want to start making people pay tho' as this much work is not free. They are basically making a new game from scratch.
