Just... No

Because SE apparently doesn't like educated, long discussions, where people who can fully, and adequately explain their line of thinking logically, which happens to usually take several more lines than just one, type of discussions and limited it to just 1000 words. I created a doc online for you to read instead.... Sorry for the inconvenience.

I seriously wasted some of my time to actually read, what you wanted to say and after all it comes down to your personal preference and opinion.

And that's all it is; your opinion. No matter how many times you add "spoken truth" to your rant, it just is your opinion and your opinion is neither the "truth" or a "fact".

First time I've seen a rant you had to download lol

Ironically, the title of this thread is my response to it. Just... No.

Hey, Mr. Gamer Flagellant, I enjoy FFXIV ARR.

Notice how that isn't a caveat, isn't in quotes, isn't used as a fig leaf of credibility.

That's because I play games that I enjoy.

P.S. SE's posting restrictions are because of people like you, who say they want a discussion yet do proselytizing.

[Upokupo]

Oooooh. Proselytizing. Nice word. Never heard that word before. Yay for expanded vocabulary. (I really am being sincere here.)

Oh... this "educated, long discussion" we haven't heard before? First educated people usually have something novel to say, not the same old dried up talking points. Second, educated people know when they're urinating into a stiff breeze and wasting their time. Third, ... well, "No."

"[FFXI] was still immersive and engaging from levels 1 to max"
- Make a party and spend hours pulling the exact same type of monster over and over again. No events, no dungeons, quests dont give exp, no change of pace.

Actually, in FFXI traveling the world with groups of people and socializing while fighting was pretty great. I'd be happy to do it again in FFXIV, and if they would add mob pools that would be one of the main ways to level. And the dungeons in FFXI were open dungeons so it did have dungeons, and imo, Yoshida should try to add open world dungeons in the future because they were really great. I guess if they added open world dungeons in FFXIV it could be a great place to party up and level.

FFXI had events. They were not Fates, but there were timed events that happened in certain areas every once in a while.


"I believe you may be experiencing what we call "rosy retrospection" "
Nope. Played FFXI recently, had fun.

Exactly, which is why I'm playing FFXIV:ARR and dealing with it.

I spoke some truths, such as how the current setup ruins the balance of the economy. That's not an opinion. There is much opinion though yes. I never said there wasn't.

What a waste of my time to even read the first few sentences.

FYI OP, if you want people to read your opinions and yes I mean "opinions" and not fact, you shouldn't begin by bashing people's intelligence. Just makes you look like a douche, a really ignorant one too.
