Rokien's new thread on Open World.

[Rokien]

You need to remember their focus is 2.0, not before hand.... so they are not interested in adding anything till then. 2.0 I'm sure you will see something. I'm a fan of open world too but most people need to realize the team is working around the clock to manage something that they didn't start out with. I'm sure 2.0 will please most crowds, and if not then sad to say but can't please everyone. The current team has worked wonders and 2.0 looks amazing, cant wait! What comes comes, and if it's not for everyone then there are plenty of other mmos to go back to or try hehe. Placing pressure and trying to get a rise out of the crowd can't make them work any faster. I say let them do their job and be patient enough to wait for the fast approaching 2.0 version of FFXIV. To say again content before 2.0 is just something they will put together fast in order to maintain patience amongst the game players and give them a little something to place their time in "A time sink" till they can release their prized work "2.0".

where did you get that I was talking about 1.x? I don't even understand. This whole thread is about 2.0

All I'm pointing out your wording makes you look a little impatient and as if there is some sort of issue to be had with the current direction of the game come 2.0. Everyone has their own personal views they want to see happen in 2.0. So my response was based of your word usage.

I wouldn't worry about it anyhow, I'm sure they will add something more to your taste at or soon after 2.0. More or less they want everything to be somewhat of a surprise to the gamers and general crowd at this very moment. I figure its better that way. I'm not a fan of everything they have done, nor do I expect to be. Patience is key however... and understanding. For the most part I see it the other way around majority of the player base's patience and understanding of the game has increased, also shown by the many returning customers/players lol.

in other words, you may not see much open world content =/ as many said above most games are leading away from this.

Because those devs are lazy. Some of us expect better from the creators of FF11. Oh wait that was Square not SE.

Well we will see what they accomplish with 2.0
