It's not done

[Galamantyl]

I think I stopped playing some time ago when someone said: "FFXI had a year before it came to North America. Give FFXIV a year and it'll be more finished".

I came back, and it's not. It seriously is not finished. Not even close.

The UI is still bad, the classes still suck, there is virtually no penalty for dying, and insta-travel still exists. There's no inclination to do anything other than for better gear. No quests for unlocking new abilities, no quests to open new areas. There's a mediocre conquest-like system in place. Gear maintenance without a point. MP recovery abilities without a point. No large-scale 18+ person group endgame content. No bard. Nothing special / Nothing unique.

Why waste my time on this MMO, when I can get the same thing out of WoW, Rift, EQ2, Warhammer, Age of Conan, etc., etc., ?

The answer is: Because I love the Final Fantasy series so much I won't realize how awful the game actually is. Thankfully, I know better.

Even looking at what's planned for 2.0, the game is not done, and I'm not paying for it. Before you guys flame this topic with one-liners like: "Another one of these?" - Take a moment to think instead: "Why so many of these?" Then if you're smart, it'll make sense to you.

Ciao.

So is anyone counting the number of threads having the same complaint?

Too many worth counting.

It does make sense to me. The OP is so over inflated with self importance that they absolutely must have a thread with their name on it. It simply won't do to post in an existing thread.

Off topic, go take this to the original thread, not here.

No thank, you police man. Your not a mod.

Back to topic though, I did the same as op, came back to changes, saw it was ok... butt not quite warranting a "full" sub fee.

Games take time to be remade/fixed. They already listed the plans and the timeline. Stop whining.

TL;DR;DC

don't like it, don't post, and don't bother returning to complain. There's plenty of people here that enjoy the game, leave us alone.
