2 Hours / Power Abilities

[Jinko]

It's easy to hate something when people are trying to force the game in the same direction as FF11, if we had it your way Jennestia this game would be FF11-2.

We already have things like chainspell and thats far from being a 2 hour ability, granted its nowhere near as powerful as FF11's chainspell.

I would rather them stick to the once per fight mechanic than 2 hour, 2 hours is too long to wait if you fail and want to try again.

If we look at Ifrit and assume the moogles will also have a 30 minute timer then, a 30 minute cooldown ability/skill/spell would be appropriate.

It needs to be good also, I don't want to see anyone exploding or something like Benediction which is basically like throwing yourself under a bus.

I agree, having a basic search system, basic content systems, actually showing that you've learned something in the 9 years of running and maintaining a previous MMO makes your next MMO a direct sequel of a previous one.

Since we all know FFXIV takes place in Vana`diel and our main threat is the Shadow Lord and Lady Lilith. I guess you're against the Roaming Odin idea too, since that makes it FFXI-2 as well, since Odin's avatar roams the Aradjiah continent in XI.

So no, nothing would be made "FFXI-2", only people who dislike that game assumes every suggestion or thought regarding XI is trying to turn it into a sequel, your Lalafell? Is a direct model from XI, so you yourself turned XIV into XI-2 ^^

(See how silly it is to say something is trying to be turned into a sequel just because of certain features?)

Seriously, if "my way" was had, XIV wouldn't even exist, I would have made a Romancing SaGa or 2nd Front Mission MMO. No other MMO in history ignored the basics, even EverQuest 2 didn't ignore the basics set forth by the previous game and THAT was for all intents and purposes a direct sequel.
