So, you have a right to tell someone not play FFXIV when you ask for something he doesn't like, but he doesn't have the right to tell you to go play another game when he doesn't like your suggestion?

FFXIV FORUMS = CRYINGCRAFT



NM camping in FFXI involved no skills at playing the game. Only the following:
1- Absurd amount of free time.
2- Willing to spend that free time doing nothing, just waiting, that's it.
3- A feeling of accomplishment because once you got that claim, all your "effort" was rewarded. Go back to number one and two for the definition of "effort".
4- Bots, good latency, luck.
I played FFXI for three years, I accomplished everything that was available in the game from 2006 ~ 2009 except for Relic weapons, but I was just starting college and thankfully had a lot of time to burn, even at that time FFXI was a renmant of old school mechanics, a generation that sailed when WoW was launched. MMO's are more mainstream now, no longer for niche groups, that is fact.
I don't see a request for fun, engaging NM fights, I'm seeing a request for a pointless timesink that requieres no skill and lots of free time.
I'm sorry to rehash this line: please, please, please, let FFXI go. It was awesome, but please, let it go.


Roaming nm design is fine for the most part, a few things I'd change:
1.) Increase pop timers to maybe 30-45 minutes.
2.) Stop including them in every other quest; I prefer named mobs that pop only if they're part of the quest as opposed to half the pre-reqs in the game requiring you to kill the same roaming nm's.
3.) Vary up the pop conditions so we have more like Coeurl. Keep the current roaming nm's as is, but for future nm's this would be nice.
On a side note, can we just have one "FFXI Ideas We'd Like to See Transitioned" thread so we don't have 12 new ones like this pop up every week?
This game is not WoW; if you want WoW, go play WoW. If you get butthurt when people mention Final Fantasy XI, then shut up about WoW.As much as it might hurt you, and as much as someone else brings the balance issues up, FFXI had the jobs right. And, you know, this is a FF, and I don't see you guys complaining about people asking for WoW things. So please.
Also, it's not like this dev team is being true to the roots of the jobs anyway.
i didnt say dont play ffxiv i said dont camp the nms if he doesnt like it. learn to read bro.

That's what it amounts to. You're telling them to not play the game when you say "so don't do X."
