I hate it when people say this, telling other people that they're wrong about how they feel.


If OP feels that way, it's fine. I didn't play enough of 1.0 to really get a grasp of its battling style. I just remember being severely disappointing because I was an MMO newb and expected the next FF solo game. The only thing I remember about 1.0 is that the bodieswere better in that they actually had rumps and curves, etc (i.e. they kind of looked more like normal humans than sticky anime characters). The textures reminded me of older games, but I kind of liked that (I like older game graphics, ahhh). Weird. Wish I remember what the battling was like. I wanna say I thought it was boring but a part of me just thinks I thought that because I wasn't accustomed to it.

I suspect that XIV's battling system was never "great." It was starting to get more challenging by SB and weirdly enough that was a confidence boost for me. xD Like, I never imagined I could pull off Shinryu's mechs and yet I was able to.

The classes then could still be a little more strategic than they were. The classes now could use being a whole lot more strategic. They're too boring. It's probably an issue that always "plagued" XIV in some way, but honestly? I think this is the worst it's ever been from what I remember from 2.0 onwards.
