Stop Hand-Holding me!

Just because a game is dead or not doesn't mean that you can't use it as a guide. The whole argument about whether you can or not is just silly.

The problem isn't that the game is dead. The problem is that the game was far from user friendly, and it failed commercially even for that reason.

FFXIV is risking as well, exactly for the same reason (between others), and the vast majority of people are demanding improvements in user-friendlyness. Using a game that wasn't exactly a champion of user-friendly approach as an example to improve a game that has the same flaw isn't exactly the best course of action. IMHO.

I think the markers are fantastic, and I hope they keep them. I like games that you do not need to research online before you play. Hence game, it should be enjoyment, not work. And if I wanted more of the same I'd just go back to FFXI.
