This game has lost it's identity again.... (Ranting Thread)

[Shurrikhan]

Most final fantasy games I've played have had 1 or 2 healers. White magic, and potions (chemist).

Also, how has it lost its identity if its the same thing over and over? That's like saying baseball lost its identity because its still baseball. WTF Baseball?!

A proper analogy would more akin to baseball where only a couple teams, at most, ever win and no new players worth rooting for come into the fold -- a "baseball" but with a stark decline in spectator emotion since there's little to no change in the circumstances, story, or figures within the sport.

I don't think that's the case here, but there's no need to strawman.

See, I only watched baseball for a few players, and when they retired, i stopped, so that analogy doesn't work well for me XD

Then why the incredulity that a player's enthusiasm for, say, an MMO might decline in the same way when the figures or other potential emotional attachments fail to grasp a player/spectator, even if no one expected the shape of the experience to change much anyways?

Again, this isn't a concern I share, exactly. To me, the game is doing well at the moment -- far from perfect, but well, on the whole.
