Technical issues killing an otherwise AVERAGE game...Amazing? wtf

The idea behind the game being Final Fantasy, perhaps the name is over hyped that playing the series for almost 15 years something as revolutionary as being able to play their lore online, and share the experience with other people is what makes it unique. The idea of class changing like Tactics just makes it brilliant. It's one of those games where you can over compensate for the lack of something, Too many dps and no tank? No problem! Job changed.

Also you're expecting way too much from it's initial release. They've focused more on quest and storyline content rather than gear. They've added dye's and such to change the way you look. Sure there are alot of questionable means to things but in the long run and with feedback they would sort it out. It's just a matter of time.

Nothing is going to change about that 2 and a half second cooldown. That ruins the game from the outset for me.

Just seems fair so no class just dominates when PVP content comes out.

Hating the feel of it also, but what makes me more annoyed is the skills that are not on the global cooldown. They have a delay on them, it's either coded wrong or maybe an internal global cooldown, either way it should be instant.

The game right now is very "raw" meaning once things smooth out from launch (about a month) they -should- start working on player feedback.

Vanilla WoW was pretty much the same way when it came out and personally was at it's best during Wrath of the Lich King however back then it was spam scorch till ignite and then start rolling with fireball + fireblast (if you played a fire mage).

Also a huge part of this game is cross-skill (which I thoroughly enjoy).

Once they get expansions and new content rolling I am sure things will change for the better; SE just needs to listen to community feedback and make decisions around that and you are pretty much golden.

Also let us not forget that there are PS3 players on this MMO unlike the others; events need to be tailored to our more casually paced brothers and sisters (potentially reasoning behind the GCD as they need to toggle hotbars and such).
