Define "things" that you mention - in fact, quantify them if you can. It should be easy considering you feel that both [FFXI and FFXIV] have the same amount of "things" lacking...

I think you have generally misunderstood what the OP is conveying which is that FFXI was enjoyable to play from the beginning, and that it also either continued to stay enjoyable or became even [I]more[I] enjoyable after some "time" passed by and "things" were added. However, FFXIV hasn't remained enjoyable to play despite some "time" and "things" being added to it; which I would agree as well - personally.


... regardless of how a game is similar to X-game, regardless of how a game isn't similar to Y-game, or even regardless of how a game is one of its kind, a game is fun to play simply because it's fun to play for no other reason because of the game in its entirety. For whatever arguable reason out there FFXIV isn't fun to play for many players who very much so enjoyed playing FFXI for however long of a time.
