How will we stand out?

[Gramul]

Going over what we've seen for ARR. We've taken a lot from other standard MMO's. WoW-esque gameplay and interface are some of the biggest changes we're facing right now, but how will we show off what separates this game from what people already have? How do we keep from being labeled World of Fantasy?

I want this game to succeed, but we can't do that by making the same mistake that nearly every other MMO has made sense WoW's creation. Copying without sufficient innovation to draw an audience.

Main draws so far:

• Job system that lets you change on the fly without having to make a whole new character
• New summoning system, details are a little fuzzy at the moment
• Brand name (references, lore, story, etc)
• Limit Break
• Chocobo raising and fighting
• Combat (Position, Combo system)
• Visuals
• Deep and useful crafting system

The brand name.

The brand heritage.

Fixed that for you.

Limit Breaks
Group Crafting
The armory system
Top notch story and visual design associated with Final Fantasy
Content for all styles of play
Chocobo raising, breading, combat
Summoning system

But most importantly, having much longer legs than other MMOs that have given up a year after release that weren't panned nearly as bad as FFXIV.

The brand name.

This. Only an idiot would call this game World of Fantasy, as FF has some pretty unique aesthetics to it. While there may be things that WoW set the standard for in terms of MMOs, story and aesthetics are not part of that list.

Limit Break

It might possibly be enjoyable to play, and the extreme lack of 10 year olds is also a bonus.

Final Fantasy-ness is how.

With Superb style, execution, quality and lore. (unsurprisingly, everything lacking in 1.0)
