Realm Reborn = downgrade?

[Nemy]

Welcome to this generation of MMO players, they will find and complain about anything these days. The thing is, because devs are currently replying to the player base, then the player base seems to think they hold power over the devs, so they spam complaints after complaints after complaints. You get used to it after awhile but 98% of FFXIV forums are full of trash complaints.

2.0 looks great and they have had to put ALOT of work into it, they spent 2yrs trying to fix the game when they could have just trashed it because it was that bad, but instead they decided to spend a fortune on trying to fix the game so that Final Fantasy players could enjoy a more upto date MMO instead of the now old-ish FFXI.

Hats off to Yoshida and his team, it seems they really have pulled off the impossible.

Ah, come on, have a lol.

And why the long post is bothering you? You can either read these people's quotes or simply go to the page you want to go. I don't get the inconvenience. I really want people to read what these people have to say. I'll start removing pre-confirmation quotes though.

Really Xmbei?

A picture of a white knight is now... offensive?

You calling me a "prat" seems offensive, even though i don't really know what it is.

(after a short googling...)

Now i know. It is offensive, but i'm not really offended. I learned a new word.

Wow you are just too cool for school ain't ya. I'd rather support the publisher of my fave MMO for 6yrs to actually come through this time instead of messing up. Call it white knighting all you like, but it beats being a whiney little kid that is crying over animation before he has even touched the game to see how it even plays like. Get off your high horse, you really think the devs give 2 blinks on what you think? I highly doubt it, but keep crying I'm sure 80% of the forums are enjoying a very dull day at work while laughing at your posts.

Yeah but if enough of it is rotten it's not worth saving. That's the whole premise of 2.0. Even if you're not a game developer, the year of f2p, the public apology, the Legacy discounts are all saying how rotten the game was. They're not supporting that game any more. They're burying the copies of it in the Arizona desert. I would never support them trying to zombie FFXIV. It's too limited, too clunky. There was so much people wanted that "couldn't be done with the current client", "couldn't be done with the current servers and structure", "couldn't be done with the current UI".

Every time I sell something on a retainer I'm reminded how crappy 1.0 is. No amount of pretty, realistic animation would make me want them to stop rebuilding the entire game.

The current engine is a turd, you can polish it all you want, it will still be a turd. The devs saw this and started from scratch.

Amen to both of these. Like Hiir says, I'd sacrifice animation for everything that they posted.

It seems like people on here go out of their way to try to find something insignificant to complain about. Make a big deal about it post multiple topics. When its really nothing big at all. I can't see the big deal with people complaining about character movement. If you ask me to compare the 2 versions I would say the 2nd one looks better due to better backgrounds and more responsive character movements.

I seen everything complained about on here, jumping, content finder, questing for exp, instanced dungeons, gearscore. Some people in the FFXIV community like to complain about any kind of change if it was up to you guys you keep everything like it is in 1.0, which the majority of the mmo gaming community wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole.

Most of us "Showing Concern" About the topic at hand hardly ever do so.

Its funny. I thought you were implying the subject of this thread was objectively insignificant for a second.

Oh wait you are.
