SE stop doing the "norm"

[Forgo]

yeah but when ffxi was made i read that it started off horrible. people only solo'd, they also say that the blinking gear swapping was a mistake. it seems like everything they did was an accident from mistake after mistake and trying to fix it, that it turned out to be a great game by the time it landed in NA.

kinda like what happen with ffxiv except one difference ...they not really fixing mistakes. they rewrote the whole dang book, and it belongs in the children section now rather then in the isle i like reading. if they fixed the broken engine and then kept going with 16man grinds and big nm's in the world, and really tough and in depth crafting that needed many crafts. well then they may have again stumbled onto creation of something people would fall in love with again. instead they created what everyone has been running around trying to avoid for the past 10years since they abysea raped ffxi.

so true my friend, FFXI has its flaws still and FFXIV had its short comings too...but mmo's today where build on that. But I think FFXVI will change the "norm" and make people love it

Honestly guys, the "norm" that FFXIV is adhering to is some modern concepts that have become staples to make the game easier to get into and customize, but not necessarily easier to master.

It's already set itself far apart from WOW and "the clones" because it doesn't have two warring factions, you can level all your classes on one character, you're going to have true player housing, crafting and gathering are actual classes and will potentially get their own end-game, etc.

That doesn't even say anything about the story and visuals, which I'm pretty sure you'd have to be crazy to say they're not good.
