New NMs

[Naylia]

Hardcore gamers specifically those of us on final fantasy have been life-long fans of Square Enix made games and been since FF1.

See, as just such a person I am old enough to have a job and a wife. Which means playing the game needs to involve something other than standing around waiting when I have the time to play. If you want to have HNMs that require 9999 Faction points to trigger, go right ahead, becasue at least then you are playing on your way there. And you can have your rare gear, because you can earn those faction points and trigger a before I can.

Casuals (like myself) are not asking that you make the content easy, we are just asking that there be a path to unlock/access the content. Content can be way cooler, than sitting around waiting for something to pop and hoping someone in my party spammed Enter fast enough to claim. That is actually anti-content....you may call that doing something...I call it doing nothing....and would rather the development team work on almost anything else in the game content wise.


But I also agree that we don't see enough of the old FF in the new versions. Dungeons used to be freaking deadly, it sucked to die, and you had to be careful and smart with how you played. That's the element we need carried forward from the old Final Fantasy's, not camping a pop location on a clock. There are a thousand better content ideas that still separate the men from the boys.


Sadly I was playing the original FF on my iPhone and it has been easy mode'd compared to intial NES release. It was harder than it is today. What happened to monsters that literally turned you to stone being frequently run into (in the latest release I haven't had to use a needle yet), or having to conserve your magic so that you had enough cures to make it not just to the boss, but also back out of the dungeon alive.
