What's unique about FFXIV:ARR?

[Fadigre]

I kinda always thought what made FF MMOs unique was that you had to group up to level up.

I'm not sure how this will work with 2.0's question although if I recall there are a limited number of quests and our characters will be leveling more than one class.

I'm asuming we'll be forced to attend leves, FATEs, dungeons or exp parties.
We'll see

I really don't understand all the hate for ARR. It still has all the Final Fantasy themes, chocobos, moogles, story, the familiar races that were in FFXI. A lot of people bought this game because it was a Final Fantasy game and they are Final Fantasy fans.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure most people didn't come into this game embracing the ideas of the fatigue/surplus system and having to form an alliance to bash on Efts to *maybe* get skill points.

What makes FF unique is quite a lot of things which SE have failed to even implement..lol.

Things like the steampunk, machina type world, with tech and armor/swords/magic.
I can't stress this enough..

"No more knights of Camelot nonsense, this is FF"
No more, "Though doth thee hither" BS.

It makes the game feel like a cruddy knock off.

FF has spunk, attitude, lore.. More of which I hope to see in ARR..
No more of this knights of camelot nonsense..

If one person says "Who, doth, though, thee, hither" to me..
I swear I will hack the game and virtually beat them, until they talk like someone from a real final fantasy world..
XD

I'm guessing you didn't play the PSP version of FF Tactics.

"Thou wretched urchin who doth mock the civil tongue! Come hither so that I may smack thee across thine filthy jowls!"

/brain explodes..
Ty.. you killed me. Great.. just great..

Thou telleth an intriguing anecdote, my good companion.

You resurrected me, than killed me again..
This is going to be a good day..
I can tell..

[Yrusama]

"Thou wretched urchin who doth mock the civil tongue! Come hither so that I may smack thee across thy filthy jowls!"

Fixed that. "Thine", or rather the "-ne" suffix for such words, is used before words that start with a vowel. "I gaze into thine eyes and see thy disdain."

You might be doing a lot of hacking if you have issues with someone who says 'who' in the game, it's a rather common word you know

Besides, who are you to say that a 'real final fantasy' world doesn't have characters using old English? Why would a 'real final fantasy' world even have characters that use English at all? If anything, the main language should be Japanese, considering that was the language of the first final fantasy worlds.
