whats wrong with wow?

[Taru_TwoPointO]

that's equal to the case that SE trying to block their ears and blind their eyes not receiving any new ideas from outside world.

The title of the thread is "whats wrong with wow" and mainly states someones opinion on wow and how they are doing currently in said game. At the very bottom they state that SE should implement some things it does. Then it turned into an argument over many pages. This thread is not contributing in any way to Final Fantasy XIV.

I'd say its relevant. One of FFXIV's problems is its community's attempts to prevent outside ideas from affecting the game--as this thread demonstrates--along with lobbying efforts to prevent those ideas that have already gotten through from having any noticeable impact (e.g. jump), as they believe that such ideas will destroy the game by making it too much like WoW, specifically by making it easy for the average person to get into the game and level. This is ignoring the idea that WoW can be legitimately hard at high levels of play (i.e. hard mode raids and high-end PvP) or even mid-levels (i.e. normal raids, heroic 5-mans, mid-range PvP) if you're a Muggle like probably most people here are.

I'm of the mind that a game should be relatively easy to get into, and doing anything beyond the baseline (leveling) should require increasing levels of ability from there, along with the need to team up with others, due to their difficulty.
