FFXIV Hot Read Thursday
Check out the hottest topics from the past week of the FFXIV general forum.
Despite a few minor fixes to Final Fantasy XIV last week, the ZAM forums have not been overly friendly to the new MMO on the block. Perhaps attitudes will change once the development team implements this newest content patch. Or, maybe the patch won’t do enough to make FFXIV more like World of Warcraft, causing some reviewers to intensify their cries of woe.
If you’re growing weary of the mounting criticism of FFXIV, then look to the bright side – not everyone is leaving the game because they don’t like it! Check out the top thread in the links below, and you’ll understand.
On to the links:
Title: Help!? account suspended same day i bought the game!
Brace yourselves, because this news is unexpected – but Square Enix might be banning innocent players for allegedly engaging in RMT activities. Yeah, I know, this isn’t very surprising considering the many unwarranted bans doled out in Final Fantasy XI. Still, given the seemingly fragile state of Final Fantasy XIV, wouldn’t you think that Square Enix would be encouraging people to play this game? Why all this double-secret probation hoopla at such a critical juncture?
If I handed out trophies for unique posters, this guy would get either the “I Never Played FFXI” award or the “My Memory is Only Rank 2” award. Not that I’m in favor of having to kill colibri over and over to get anywhere – wait, I’m sorry. Did I say colibri? I meant to say “dodos.” Not crab. I mean colibri… or dodos! Bah, whatever.
Title: If I liked FFXI, what other MMO would I enjoy?
The name says it all. This veteran FFXI player is looking for a new MMO to tickle his fancy. Turns out, I know of a brand new MMO that was made by the creators of FFXI. This game uses the same basic races, has a more flexible job system and even better graphics and sound. The storyline is promising, and there’s a ton of content just waiting to be implemented. And the name of this game is… hmmm… let me think. It will come back to me soon.
