[Request] Make HNM weapons worth it!

[Isaveron]

This is what people wanted though. (Make XIV a standard MMORPG!)

And it's going to do far better than it ever would as XI-2, which eats you up inside.

Indeed, a standard MMORPG would do better than an XI-2, even though I've yet to see anyone ever say remake Vana`diel -- Generally just the ones who hate XI assume anything being used from XI would mean make a sequel, since said people don't know the difference between using what works and make it better/do your own spin of it (standard MMORPG) and learning from what you did and not throwing away the experience (learning from XI and making it better, not worse.)

Good try though.

What I find funniest about the XI-2 argument people make Jennestia, is that if they HAD just made this game XI-2 instead of what it was, it probably would have sold more and done better than what we have now.

This speaks more about your personal insecurities about XIV becoming an MMORPG you hate. Only an idiot would think a company using ideas from their previous game and expanding on it or making it better is a bad thing.

Any smart company would learn from their mistakes and used what worked, it worked for the gaming industry for 20+ years, why would it suddenly not work now? It worked for Bioware and people seem to be lapping up SWTOR.

Ding ding ding!

WINNAH!

I agree 100%. Every time SE adds something they blast whatever they did (beforehand) into complete and utter redundancy.

The new gear didn't blast it away though materia did, green and blue items can't compete with 2 and 3 times materia pieces.

It's the biggest problem in the game for me at the moment, I don't want to play a game where the best gear is craftable.

However they have stated that the game is balanced around one materia in any given piece. Nothing of the same level will ever stand up to something with 2-5 materia in it because the game isn't designed that way.

LMAO. If you don't know what the word means don't use it. Using "BIG" words to sound intelligent often ends
with the offender looking like a compelete tool.

[YuriSan]

I am really hoping for a reply by the devs in this thread.

I sure as hell aint changing my Aeolian Scimitar +1 for which i bled, swet and cried for for about a month lol..
I have a doubled winglet but meh... not really excited to use a Master Sword in a FF game.

Some suggestions in here are just great like enhancing the NM dropped weapon with new items at a patch.
I think thats the best idea for them. (Coat the Scimitar with Mythril or Darksilver)
This could be used easily i think, just need some coding and imagination.
