What XIV can take from XI to make it better

[Ingolf]

24 hour pop NM's were my favourite part of XI, my LS always got claim because we had dedication.

There needs to be more long term events with low(ish) drop rates, so the dedicated players will have something to do.

what else from XI would you like?

/popcorn this is gonna be good.......

A more dynamic varied and interesting world. That's kinda what I'm banking on with the redesign.

Also, I'm sure many people will say nothing because XI was the devil.

The playerbase.

Storylines, and the sense of adventure.

What they can take from XI:

#1 Variety of content: Instances, low man duo/trio content, Party content, small alliance 18ish man content. large alliance 32-64 man content. Open world content. World Spawns. Smaller Nms. Hardcore goals which take years, goals which take months, goals which take weeks. Content that is never negated.

#2 Player Driven Economy: Look at XI it worked, look at XIV it is a complete mess. Fix it simple as that

#3 Global Community: This was one of the #1 selling points of XI.... it is completely backwards thinking to not at least offer it to some degree.

That is what they can take from XI to make XIV really good. The things above are what makes the pre-abysea XI in some ways still better then everything else. It might of lacked casual element, but it nailed the hardcore and midcore elements. Had a strong economy for years and brought the world together.

Combine XI with more casual modern mmo games and you can have something that everyone can enjoy not just the people playing casually.

Absolutely nothing, keep both games unique rather than try to make them both into one.
