    Realm Reborn Conserns

    Honestly as much as I wish FFXIV was stacking up to other games the fact is that its not.
    The game is way to old school and just doesn’t satisfy today’s gaming community,
    A realm reborn looks like a slight improvement on the initial game, but all I am really seeing from
    It is a lot more flashy lights and a bunch of things that should have already been in the game, like
    Auction house and mail system and I really wish they would stop trying to advertise their jump as
    Something amazing because it is not, jumping has been around in most mmos from the get go if their new jump is their main selling point of realm reborn ( which it seems like it is) I think they are doomed.

    From the start of FFXIV to this point it has been nothing but empty promises and false hope that the game could succeed, I remember starting the game back in beta and we were told that there would be new customization for our characters on actual release, I told my friends not to get there hopes up and they and the community of the game kept reassuring me that it wouldn’t be as short cut as in beta, so anyway the release day I go and get my copy and install the game and just as I suspected it was the exact same boring customization as in beta, the reason I bring this up is taking a look at the alpha (with the exception of the new sex’s on some races) there really is no stand out differences in customization its still just the exact same hair styles and faces used in both ffxi and ffxiv.

    Games like Guild wars 2 have the right idea, by eliminating pointless, annoying and meaningless content
    From the mmo structure, they created a world in which all players can work together with less competition and more satisfaction, something I really hated in both FFXIV and FFXI was the Cold stone fact that unless you are in a linkshell and favored by the leaders it was very difficult to Progress through the games end content, but when you stop and think is this actually necessary well the answer is no in fact by making the game this way you are driving away players because the normal and majority of gamers don’t like this.

    Also by making a game more player friendly you end up with a better community, players are more willing to help and don’t walk around with aggressive attitudes because the game doesn’t stress them out or consume all there free time

    If you want to defend square enix in all of their decisions then you are entitled to do so, this is just my opinion and I wish to see the game go in the right direction rather then fail over and over in fact
    I wish they would shutdown for a good 2-3 years and rebuild the game right.

    PS. i know its only alpha at the moment and not a completed remake but the game is not going to go from what it is to a completely new game in a matter of months, oh and don't pointlessly flame and troll if you have something to say that's cool but try and be interesting

    (8years of ffxi achieved - 1 year of ffxiv wasted)

    Actually he needs to reformat the whole argument. I fail to take it seriously when no periods are being used, and it's just one big run-on sentence. That is my only "consern."

    How is jumping pointless? I think it's good for getting up to some areas like jumping over fences instead of walking around them. At least I'd do that in the game. Heck, I think you could solve A LOT of glitches just by using jump to show how accessible the areas are for bugs. FFXI didn't have it, and I fell through the floorboards in Kazham many times and had a GM come and teleport me out.

    Please stop acting like i am bashing the game pointlessly, im a massive fan of all Final fantasy games and have all class's maxed with good equipment so im not just some fan boy of other mmos i would rather play FFXIV over the others but the point i am trying to make is that its not up to scratch and it should probably be shutdown for a long time until its right
