But that was a while ago and people don't really want that anymore, personally myself I don't think I can sit around all day again waiting for invites/making PTs so I do enjoy the quest system and It is a nice step forward to actually bring casuals to the game, which the game clearly needs is more players.

It's funny how people say Yoshi is copying off WoW, but if you look at alot of MMOs they are doing the same concept, instance dungeons(who wants to camp HNM again cept hardcores?), also quest system for casual players.

Personally(yes my opinion before ppl jump me) I think taking on Yoshi was a great choice for SE to do and to let Tanaka go, granted Tanaka made FFXI work in the past but that sort of thing won't pass these days and people would just get bored and leave. If I remember correctly, alot of people enjoyed abyssea for XI but then when Tanaka took charge again, alot of people hated voidwatch.
please explain what part of standing idle for hours upon hours hoping for your bot to claim the mob is this hardcore feeling you speak of?
