An open petition / discussion about Animation Lock and FFXIV

[Yonnji]

It seems like the player fan base of SE/FFXIV are totally brain washed from being jerked around for years in XI.

...Archer gets animation lock from regular attacks? Bam. Instant useless class. You levelled Archer to 50 for absolutely no reason and SE spits on you in response. Time to play LNC, MRD or CNJ I guess. Or quit.

Ain't it the truth. Though, personally, I'll still be holding for the musketeer/ranger. And if that's not coming... SE can shove it.

Quit moving the goalposts. If Link stopped for 2 seconds every time he shot a damn arrow, the gameplay would be absolutely terrible.

This. Is. A. Game.

He had stubby legs maybe that was full-speed

Isn't that what you are doing?
even games have rules, you don't like animation lock, too bad. go play something else.

Yawn. Troll logic. "You have any grievance that I dislike and yet have bested me in an argument, go play something else if you don't like it."

not troll logic at all, the game has a specific set of rules. You don't like those rules, therefore you are demanding the rules be rewritten, in this case you are demanding the game be restored to easy mode, which the majority already screamed bloody murder at.

I wonder which of us is the troll here.

"Demanding"?

This is what I'm doing: Recommending that the rules be changed because the current rules foster bad gameplay and class imbalance. I point out the flaws, and propose changes that would fix those flaws.

and they are a path to easy mode, where no strategy is involved. No matter how you try to sugar it, your changes would make things even worse.
