Is it possibile for some ( i guess alot since the server are packed ) to just enjoy the game... Some people around this forum are almost treating us fools just because we play it and rather like it. Its not just about the " final fantasy " brand thing, its being part of a new mmo aiming for something else and evolve with it. Alot of us are just tired of those other mmos... wow, eq and such and are just moving on.
ITs easy to find weakness in a game, but I prefer to enjoy the good part of it, because yes there is alot. Kids go do something else or go back play wow or whatever and we dont blame you for doing it.

Well it's certainly different. Do i like a different MMO ? Hell yeah. Dont get me wrong i'm not saying FFXIV is perfect, it's in fact from for it, but hell it's different of the cookie cutter WOW wannabe MMO's. Would i play this past the free month, I have no idea but for now it's keeping me entertained.
And yet you're here on a third party forum, rather than being ingame and enjoying it as you would like everyone else to be doing.
If you expect nothing but rainbows and butterflies, keep to the official forums where I'm sure there are few "haters".
Come to a third party forum and you deal with those who do not agree with you.
Pretty easy to understand, isn't it?
-Letting Derek Smart work on your game is like letting Osama bin Laden work in the White House. Something will burn.-
-And on the 8th day, man created God.-
I wish it had kept me entertained. This is the first game that I have ever cancelled within the 30 day free period.
I think the larger problem is this: if you're running a site such as MMORPG.COM, and you expect people to be using the forums you have dedicated to a game, you will need to faciltiate the needs of those who play that game. If, instead, you attempt to balance the needs of who don't play the game, and are just going to get in the way of those who do, then you will succeed in doing exactly what you're saying here: you'll drive us off this forum to forums like the one over at FFXIV core.
Take a look at the state of the posts here. When I was banned for 3 days, there were large stretches of time where there wasn't a post for hours. I can see posts here from yesterday morning. This forum is already pretty close to a ghost town.
I think we owe the moderators giving way too much slack to the haters for that. Good luck running an MMORPG-themed forum where the real theme is, "lets run an open dialogue for everybody who wants to slam your game."
There's not a lot of MMORPGs which don't have an official forum. FFXIV is one of them. If I was looking to cash in on that, I'd try a little harder to make those players feel welcome.
Ohh, but... is there a good part???
I waited eagerly for that game to come out.
I have played Beta, Alfa, Collectors edition, now the normal start.
With patience, knowing things JUST HAVE to get better.
Always told: "come un, dont ask for all, this game is just starting".
Days have gone by, boring, cumbersome, a real back step in games. An empty world full of mistakes.
And I am not talking about "bugs", that is normal, I am talking of a real bad experience and awful planning.
Hearing all the time: "it will get better", "we love it, it will get better", "it is a new experience".
Well... I recon i did a mistake, lost my money (by the way, my money DID WORK from the begining), lost some days trying to see where was the "charm" of the game. There is none.
Of course, I know the fanatics masochists who love that series no matters what, will tell i am a troll, a moany idiot, and so many other excuses.
I will tell you what... I lost my money... but not my time anymore.
You love it? Enjoy it, hahahahaha
This is not a forum just for fans and MMORPG.com doesn't seem to have a problem with that. If there was no major debates about the core of the said game, what would you be doing here then instead of ffxivcore? Saying how your fishing went today? This forum would have far less posts if there were only fans you can count on that.
