Or is everyone jumping the gun on some inner fear that SE all of a sudden wants a wow clone.

I will try to help by expaining my position here.

A clean UI that responds to a command when entered does not make a wow clone it is called a clean UI!

Differentation between class types in combat style is not a wow clone, it is an element of an RPG where the classes are unique!

Flashier animations on abilities is actually what SE has traditionally been good at, THis does not mean peope want XI-2!

If you get the impression that the jority of people posting comments for improvemtns are looking for a wow clone or for FFXI-2 then either I am missing something drastic, or your misinterpreting people comments.
no i do not believe anyone wants a wow clone. the statement was when someone uses the vague statement of drastic changes none of us really know what was meant by them. the questions to really get a good feel for what people wants to change it to.

if it's the xi route that majority wants that's up the the overall community. if it's sub jobs and trees the majority wants that's what the game needs. i just wouldn't want that type of change and would more than likely leave over them, but i am just one person so the game would not miss me.

if the majority wants a wow type concept that's what would be best for the game, but i believe most of us here would leave over those.

all i was saying was using that as an example of drastic changes and how that line of questioning could be interpreted. i was not now nor have i said that is what i want or that's what should happen. i was promoting trying to get more specific questions of changes not the general do you want changes. if this game was the best ever you would have people still not happy with it and want changes, but specific questions would allow them to see what the majority of people want.
