    Nothing like wow? Come on I enjoy the game and all but lets be real.....
    The crafting and gathering in this game is outstanding and lightyears beyond WoW.

    You can be any and all classes on one character, changing throughout game play. Wow doesn't even have jobs or a universal fighting pet for all characters.

    Do I really need to keep going?

    He's talking about the core gameplay and progression model made standard by WoW.

    That would be like calling a Ferrari a Ford, simply because Model-T's were the first, and thinking that someone who likes a Ferrari is going to enjoy a Model-T. No, the fan of the Ferrari is going to be quite disappointed when you roll out the old cranker and tell him that your comparison was based on a subjective far-removed principle. Come on. FFXIV:ARR is fun, different, and to be honest, a breath of fresh air from the wow clones. It's got something going for it.

    No it isn't, that suggests that the WoW core gameplay is defining of the genre and it is not. I have played many mmos and a number of which felt distinctly not like WoW but this most certainly does. I don't hate WoW but this is definitely modeled after it (especially apparent when you consider Yoshi P's comments about WoW when developing 2.0).

    I believe it is the same world as XI, but roughly 100 years in the future.

    The evidence shows in the fact that there is mention of Shantotto on the relic reborn quest for blm, Raubahn in the immortal flames(he was an immortal in XI, so it could be the same guy. Also he has a sword called Tizona, which was the mythic weapon for blue mage in XI), and Mnejing in the goldsmith quest. Also I believe the goobue mount npc talked about vanadiel.

    I have been thinking this ever since I started the game! It really does feel like it could be the same world, just many many years in the future. Maybe more than 100, maybe even 1,000 or 10,000.

    Would be nice however Vana'diel is a flat world unlike Hydaelyn which is a round world.
