FFXI suck..SE not to blame.Follow

You cant blame SE for how much FFXI suck..

SE dont make many PC games. They have no experience in making PC games, so the UI in FFXI will suck, because its catered more to the console gamers, which SE specialise in their console RPG series.

Another complain is that there are many problems of FFXI, but SE just do nothing about it..this is because SE have NEVER, or VERY SELDOM make any online games. All their games are TOTALLY single player, so they have no experience in when to make updates, and when to put in more content, or what things to change.

However if SE dont learn their mistakes, and continue the same things in their next MMO, then its their fault.

I'm sorry that you hate FFXI... but this happens to be the WoW forum, aka not a sholder to lean on for all you people that wasted money on FFXI and now hate it

BUT, while we are on the subject, FFXI is also for PS2, and its failure has nothing to do with the physical game itself, its all content that no one likes. And SE makes plenty of updates... but SE is no the kind of company that is going to change the whole structure of the game b/c some ppl dont like it

FFXI doesn't suck, it's just not the game for everyone. There are people that love FFXI.

There will be people that will think WoW sucks.

Not everything is for everybody.

It's one of the things that makes life great. Imagine how boring it would be if we all liked the same things.

Another thing about releasing on two platforms that is bad is that you pretty much limit your own games lifespan. Look at most other mmo's once they start to look dated or something then they get a graphic overhaul. You cant do this with the ps2 because its already being pushed to its limit as it is. Not to mention the limits on models of characters,mobs,armors etc. Personally i think if your going to make a cross platform game the pc players should have more options graphically sorta like eq has where you can choose to use newer graphics or older ones.

Honestly, I can't see why people compare MMORPGs. Each one is tailored for different people. It's not the same as comparing one First Person Shooter to another one. Game dynamics are COMPLTLEY different between MMORPGs. FFXI, for example, focuses on group mentality. WoW dosen't as much. FFXI has a job system that makes you work very hard to get anywhere in the game and the storyline is very slow to reveal itself. WoW's story, from what I've concluded, is built on the quests you do. You start quests when you start the game, and a lot of them you don't need to rely on other people for. You need people to get anything done in FFXI.

Stop comparing the two and calling one better than the other. I've had FFXI since it's North American relase, and I will also be getting WoW. FFXI does not suck.

Honestly, I'm tired of you children who keep touting WoW as some sort of miracle child. It will have it's own problems. Wait until you've played both games for a reasonable length of time, THEN for an opinion. And remember to call it an opinion, not a statement. Anyone calling WoW better than FFXI gets a rate-down from me simple because they are being stupid and they are uninformed.

There is no reason why we can't blame SE for making a poor game just because they have no rapport for that type of game. Blizzard has no experience with MMORPGs either, and I have every confidence their's will be WAAAY better than FFXI. (Granted, they have done computer on-line games, but I don't consider that a style of play. FFXI is for Playstation 2, and SE has made those games before.)

Actually i can blame the ingame community for making FFXI suck. They are the ones who forced the perfect job combo idea. They are the ones who forced the perfect party idea. They are the ones who forced the you have to have Uber item A idea. They are the ones who ***** the economy. I hope that WoW doesnt have the elitest attitude where everything must be perfect when it gets released.

I'm going to make this post short and sweet:
If FFXI sucked, why should we protect SE? I don't think it does, but it doesn't make sense.

/sigh..... why is FFXI continually brought up?

Vamp that is a very good way of putting it.

I just thought of something...you say SE shouldn't be blaimed because its their first "attempt" at an MMO? Well then, IT IS DIRECTLY THEIR FAULT THAT IT SUX.

Lol.

LMFAO at your elitist attitude...do you think we haven't even played FFXI? Surely you must be an idiot...why would someone bash a game they have never played? Lol...
