wow... rested experience just wow...

[Kairyu]

no wonder this game has failed thus far after reading all your guys comments lol. Game is way to easy and it just got easier. Congrats.

I could care less if you casuals cant do everything in the game which is how 11 was set up. Thats your problem not mine. Just go play any other mmo on the market and you will be able to do everything. Sorry but If you decide to play alot and put alot of time into the game your character should be way better than a casuals imo. How is that fair for me or anyone else to spend 3x the amount of hours on the game but yet we both still achieve the same amount of content? I seriously hate this generation of gaming. CoD Ruined socom and wow ruined final fantasy. This everyone wins mentality they put in kids minds these days is sad..

The party feature on this game is already ruined because everyone has almost every job 50.. Its like pulling fucking teeth trying to get a party. I see people shouting in town for hours for 8 players. Oh ya dont even get me started about the power lvling.

I just dont understand why everyone wants this mmo to be so easy.. Like i said every other mmo on the market has went to easy mode, cant we just have 1 that is hardcore? that is what made 11 so amazing.

You're very clueless. I can't come to type out serious responses to stupidity anymore.

[Kairyu]

What am I clueless about? The fact that this game sucks and your all over SE's balls? Im sorry but im one of the losers out there that wanns ffxi-2 and not another wow clone

Game makes me sick idk why I even player it.. I guess I just have some hope that SE will stop listening to all the casual players and realize that they arent their main crowd. Reason it seems that ways is because most of the real final fantasy fans have given up on the game or are waiting for 2.0

SE said from the beginning that they didn't want this to be XI-2. And just because it probably won't be XI-2, doesn't mean it'll end up a WoW clone... it's not like XI-2 and WoW clone are the only options, lol.

At least we're on the same page... you took a few weeks to catch up though.

Don't get where people get off on being such jerks.

I have to ask if you read anything that was posted between the two of them?? I probably would not have said it the same way RemVye did but I will say this... I think RemVye is pretty right and Kairyu needs to take a few deep breaths and relax. He is clearly getting way to angry over this issue and is taking the game way to serious and personal.

Oh wait I forgot that's how you humans pretty much take everything... never mind...

The cat is bemused =-.-=

There is nothing wrong with this feature. I have seen it used in several other MMO's I have played.
Now before you try to bash what I've said, take these few things into account.

1. Extra exp is always a nice bonus, especially for DoL classes, as they take longer to level.

2. To get this bonus, I would assume it would mean time spent OFFLINE. This will give an incentive to people to play the game 24/7. (Anyone from FFXI should know where I'm going with this.)


Now dont kill me here but I'm gonna kind of explain how it works in another game I play.
After a period of being offline, you get this buff which gives you extra exp from ALL sources, and as a secondary incentive, it also increases the drop rate of items by 5% while active (yes i know its a little off-topic, but hear me out). It basically adds an extra 30% exp to everything. Quest exp, gathering, mob killing, crafting, you name it.

How the game determines how much of that exp bonus you should get is determined by how long you stay logged out of that character (in that game the buff is not shared account-wide, think how anima works in this game). It's shown as a green bar when you hover over the icon, 100% to 0%. As you use this exp bonus it drops, and if it hits 0% it disappears until you've logged out long enough again. Too easy, you say? It really isnt that simple. In that game it takes 48 hours Earth time to fully fill that bar and when you're constantly getting extra exp (think parties), you'd be suprised how fast it wears off.


So basically, I'm sure SE is just trying to fit in with the modern gaming community. It gives casual players a better chance to stay on level with the rest of the hardcore players. After all, this is NOT FFXI, as much as some people want it to be.

(Pardon my excessively long post...)
