I just want to let the dev team, and everybody working on FF:XIV that the game is 100% taking the right direction. I have no doubt that if THIS were released, the game would have been a success. Granted, there is still alot of room for improvement. but overall, you guys (the dev team) have done an amazing job of turning a game around. I have nothing but respect for how hard you have worked, and every day I look forward to playing your game.
But, to give you my thoughts on improvement. And I know alot of these are being worked on, but...AH please. Retainer system is awesome now a days, and I can see what they were trying to do with it. but, I wish I could just buy from the window rather than having to zone, load, find, buy. Oh, and sometimes my cool down timers don't show on my action bar. And of course a mailing system, a universal AH, and the ability to /yell and have it reach the main hub of every city. OH OH OH! almost forgot. Bring back dark knight please! let it be a DD/crowd control, I know you still have to make room for RDM, NIN, THF, and SAM. but as far as DRK goes...don't let it be what it is right now in FF:XI, a WAR that sucks but has way better looking armor. Give it the crowd control utility of being able to AoE sleep, AoE bio, AoE drain.
Now that I'm done complaining :P let me go back to compliments, you guys are awesome and have done an awesome job of bringing this game back. I can't wait til v2.0~!
