[QUOTE=Zenaku;104847]We better of with Hiromichi Tanaka idea this new guy is making it like wow clone it does not matter if it's fun it still wow. Why call them dungeon? why not a cool new name like ffxi did BCNM,KSNM,ISNM there only reason they calling it dungeon is so wow noobs know what there are -.-

Zenaku, I agree with you. I'm sure you're one of the true ex-FFXI player who wishing FFXIV to succeed.

So far I haven't seen Yoshi-P done ANYTHING spectacular about FFXIV.
To summarized really quick:
1. SP/XP change
2. Size of monster/effect
3. Added Side Quest,Bell/Egg Event
4. Small NM with new armor/weapon/etc
5. Few Icons.
6. etc.

To be honest, above are pretty much just a twist of code. Nothing breath-taking.
Again it prove my previous thought, Yoshi is not desiging new content, he is just opening content which is already here. In the meanwhile, twisting the value of the game into easy mode (wow-clone?)

Only 1 thing i believe Yoshi-P is doing belong to his work, "auto-attack, a revamp of combat system", but it probabaly belong to Matsui's responsbility... What if Matsui actually hate the idea of auto-attack and he questions why Yoshi-P being so nice to accept idea from player's whiming?... well i'm a bit over guessing here.

So in coming future, even they add 'Grand Company', 'Dugeon/Raid', 'Chocobote/Airship', 'New Area..etc', I still think these are all previous content locked, Yoshi-P just going to unlock it, meanwhile twisting them into easier mode again.

But my truely opinion is, FFXIV will sort of live longer if it stay JMMORPG, it will die quickly in 1-2 year ( Even with a successful PS3 launch) if it become West-MMORPG style.

So back to topic, my fincal guess is that SE already gave up FFXIV, they gonna earn as much copy sell in PS3 as possible. Then move on.

Sorry for being pessimissitic but this is my vision of seeing it.
