I can say with certainty that it's better than the other one. If this is the solution for now great it's a step in the right direction.

Aggro icons ruin the landscape. Please try not to make the game feel as if we are fighting monsters, not numbers and icons.

honestly I rather play a game instead of an interactive movie. past ff games had stuff similar to that. Or through scan shown levels. How about we go back to the random battles? we don;t see any mob what so ever and make it so we can't flee. And mobs are all different levels and there is a chance you will die in 1 shot because the mob was 40 in a level 10 area.

What is getting me peeved is no one remembers their first day in mmo. I do remember and honestly i had no idea wtf to do. I didn't know what I could kill safely etc etc. I wasted two hours just dying. Not fun. I had to buy the stupid book just to play the game at first. I'm pretty sure most of you guys bought the stupid ffxi players guide which basically told you all the info about just every mob in the game at ps2 release.

You're welcome.

/toggle 3

You're welcome.

It's not the toggle. It's the player Square Enix is catering to with this update that we don't really care to run the game. Dunno how much clearer that can be. If you can't navigate a zone without dying to agro, go play an easier game because you're Fischer Pricing this one up way too much.


We can't toggle the bad's influence off. Believe us, we would if we could.

Exactly. If they have even once used that site for ANYTHING, they're a hypocrite. Plain and simple. If not, turn off the indicator, no harm no foul. Still blows my mind people bitch over the option to play how you like. Everyone has to play this MY way or i'm not happy, is pretty much what it boils down to. No wait aggro indicators make you noob, be a pro, walk around aimlessly and get one-shotted because you simply had no idea it'd aggro, that obviously makes you a better player >.>

Btw belgian, I do hope you're playing with /names turned off if you're playing that immersion card that hard. I mean the names cover up more of the landscape then even the gigantic red circle currently on mobs, and completely ruin your adventure as well.

lol Hypocrisy is a funny thing. "BAD SE I don't want the information to be readily available! I would rather go check wiki or YG you losers!" /end rant

Someone stated it's the casuals that don't want to compromise but there is a minority of radicals on both sides. Toggle the icon off, toggle names, and disable damage display if you want immersion. I mean seriously when have you hit something and seen numbers pop up in yellow? Whatever game you radicals want won't happen in this evolution of MMOs(unless you go make one yourself). Compromises must be met to be successful or suffer like XI started to after WoW.

It is really funny because these are the same people that will go to wiki(or yg) for strategies and info lol.
Word of the day: Hypocrisy

People is trollin SE hard lol. Accept life's changes or be left behind.


edit: Fixed mistake Except to Accept so Dubont would feel like a special snowflake.
