Player's Poll: FFXIV or FFXI-2?

[Cichy]

Oh look! A dead horse! Lemme go get my bat.

at this point the horse is a red stain on the pavement and they still going at it with a bat.

lolred.

At this point the blood is so old it's turned black from rot.

Zaaku, my favorite moogle prayer giving Roe.

Your poll is bias in wording. A or B are not the only options for these issues, nor do I wish to have them bundled in such ways. I like certain features from both and hate some from both. I wish it was that black or white.

It doesn't matter really what the players on the forums want. It really comes down to SE wanting to make more money. Now I know this isn't WoW but even WoW came out and said only 1% of their population is hardcore players, so doesn't really matter what people "want" because no matter how many threads get created with people wanting harder this and that, they are sadly the minority.

Also, I know this isn't one of those threads. Just stating the facts though between hardcore and casual.

Masochistic old-XI players, I swear.

Yeah I can list only the negative things from one game and the positive things from the other and make it look like a one-sided snore fest but what's the point?

Oh wait someone's done that already...

This is one of the worst "polls" ive ever seen. The OP really really stacks the cards against the second choice. It makes you feel like you have to be stupid to pick it- You make everything sound negative and inflict your personal feelings upon it. It ceases to be a fair, unbiased poll when you do that.

(By the way, as far as the leveling comments: you can cap a job in FFXI in a day or two. You can't do that in XIV at least not without paying someone to powerlevel you)

Alright time for a honest calculation (Of those who visit the forums at least) of how players feel about what this game is shaping into. I am tired of hearing the excuse that this generation of MMO's *has* to casualize to work. I'm curious to see how many of their paying players right now agree.

Like this post if you wish for

~A return to longer EXP requirements. (3+ months per Job at the low end)
~More difficult enemies (Party focuses on a single target instead of 4)
~EXP penalty for Death
~Level capped instances (If you want to do content at a lower level you can't blam through it with a 50)
~Return to the basic job/subjob system and Iconic names
~More Job utility outside of combat (Whm teles, Blm Warp II, Thf treasure Hunter, ect)
~Auction Houses and centralized markets which can be access from a primary city (We don't quite have a Jueno but we will soon I imagine)


More importantly. These highlight examples aside. Do you want the Devs to create a game that will truly challenge the player base? That forces close bonds with friends and makes every day you play memorable? To stop creating in shortcuts for those unwilling to put in the effort?

Like the "Make the game hard for new people cause I'm 50 already and I don't matter IRL" posts otherwise.

I want FFXIV-2?

edit: ...wait, what would that even entail?

[Alhanelem]

Like this post if you think the only real reason this poll is being posted is to solicit likes for the OP's account. (okay, maybe mine too but given how pointless and biased the "poll" is, that's the only possible point and reason for it)
