Thread: 2.0 Abolition of Anima?

A few options:
- Give WHM teleports back. (level 30 or something so people don't cry about it. They can just carry a WHM weapon around)
WHM which is not in the game yet had tele's? you speak past tense as if you traveled to a future time and played this game......OH wait, I get it, how cute, you think this is FFXI-II
- Leave Chocobos
- Leave city warps
- Leave Airships
- Add Movement speed boots that stack with swiftsong
- Add Chocobo armor that increases movement speed

(The above is just my opinion on the subject <3 Let's hear yours)


Thoughts?

Edit:
Teleporting around, Anima, it doesn't feel Final Fantasy to me. It never will. It seems broken that I can port around (even on a timer), to anywhere. It just seems TOO strong a mechanic in a MMO.

I like it myself. Its also prety standard in MMOs as a whole. I think it needs to be left just like it is.

I have never played a MMO that let you go almost anywhere, anytime, on any class, from anywhere.

Then you have played very few MMOs.

Sure, classes had teleport and summon skills, but FFXIV porting takes the cake.

No, its pretty norm.

Idk.

It just "feels" broken. I never leave town unless I have anima or can bum a ride from someone who does. I figure if Anima didnt exist, people might actually be running around in game instead of waiting on anima recharge.
Thats your fault, not our. We do not need to change a complete system because YOU won't use your chocobo, goobbue, airship.

No need to build the system to customize it for you personally but thanks anyways.

.. Anima gives everyone the ability to teleport right? So .. why restrict it to one job? That's silly

There's a fair recharge on anima, so those who teleport everywhere will eventually run out and be forced to walk.

I'm pretty sure we don't want to force people to walk, or allow this stupid idea of WHM unlimited teleports. Anima allows for a system that can balance out teleporting/walking.

It really doesn't ruin the game at all... I use it all the time when I teleport with parties to La Nosca from Ul'dah saves us time and lets us get on with what we want to do.


-- Also, Anima not feeling very 'Final Fantasy' to you? >:[ I wonder what people said about Final Fantasy VII (how different it is compared to the previous final fantasys)?

I'll admit that.

I'm still allowed to have my opinions and share them, weather people agree, they are logical, or not.

I'm not always right. I'm cool with that.
XD

This is why I do respect you.
And I appreciate that you don't resort to name calling and personal attacks.

I am a very mediocre player and still naive when it comes to games, and it probably shows here on the forums.

But I have learned a lot from reading posts by people like you, who are much more skilled than I am -- even if our opinions may differ.


Group hug. ^^
