dev1031 You are losing your main playerbase by making things too easy/fast/casual

Square enix trying to make a western MMO = an abomination of all styles of MMOs. Stick with what you know build on your originality of FFXI. If dungeons don't have an interesting dynamic to them like Salvage/Dynamis/Nyzul Isle etc etc.... and is instead a single path of trash mobs until you get to each boss, im uninstalling.

you know that isn't true, kindly stop with this silly attcks its getting old now.
And fyi, dynamis, and just about every rpg including ff games and dungeons set up like that. A single path thing filled with trash mobs till you get to the final boss.
You can dress it up with stuff like nyzul isle but it still basically the same.

go right ahead, your not doing the game community any favors but trying to cause uneeded drama between the player base.

suggestion take a break from gaming. Your letting hate of 1 mmo cloud your mind and make you out in being a "d" itch.

again dynamis WAS INFACT a signle path dungeon (just with a huge path) killing trash mobs till you reached a single boss. infact, most of the ffxi quests and missions were like that.

@ sol and rai
that is true i was following ffxiv for a while, and I was happy it was going to be a and these are tanaka words "a less time consuming game"
I have time to play ffxi but even I agree some events took to long to get through. Dynamis comes to mind. fun event anyone had acess to it. But the runs were long. When i did dynamis my LS i was in for a mnth was 11pm gather and the run would end about 1-2am. I was pretty mucg falling asleep. My exb/f who played ffxi, has a full time job but always played ffxi when he got home till he went to bed. And due to a sleeping issue he couldn't do dynamis like he wanted to. : / He was lucky to do a few runs but due to his work and needing a sleep sced. he could do alot of ffxi content. And he wasn't what you call a casual player. He started ffxi in pc launch, ran his own LS (that was huge) and help anyone and everyone. He was well liked on oyr server also, it seemed EVEREYONE knew him.

There were a lot of 'hardcore' players who loved ffxi. Just because you had a bad experience doesn't mean everyone did. Please stop with your sob story. These forums are the worst thing that happened to this game.. honestly.

its not a sob story.... you "hardcore" are asking for stuff for your play time. I'm under that same if not more play time flag. And there just not enough players to do the content with.
that was the truth.

I'm a hardcore player who played ffxi

I stopped because I didn't have the time or interest to slave for millions of gil.

Ffxiv is a welcome change for me. I have no interest in seeing it become another ffxi. I want to be part of a community, not simply a bunch of railroaders to cap. If you can't find enough in the game for you after leveling multiple jobs, maybe its not your game, so much as your gameplay.

There's a world out there, you know. The game is designed to be more than just end game activities. Take it in, man!

As someone who does play the game:

Kitta is right like 90% of the time. More than I can say about some of the other people who play this game.
