Sorry its a long read. Whats the verdict compared to the origional though? Better?


Try the beta so go ahead and apply. In fact open beta is almost ready. You can test and make your own verdict on pc and ps3. For me its overall better than the original and the good outweighs the bad. In fact I didn't find anything to dislike.


Even the fact that most moves seem to be homogenized due to GCD and the fact that EVERYTHING is either 150% or 200% your basic attack? There's no longer the big epic attack you save up for that gives devastating numbers. 

That's my biggest gripe. 

Second biggest gripe is the zoning. I loved the fact that the original FFXIV's world felt cohesive and open. This one is a bunch of smaller locations that don't even fit together on a map. That's right, they made a world full of zones that don't even properly line up to create a cohesive world. Even Zelda games can do that...

Despite the things I hate about the game, I still enjoy it overall. I really hope they change some of this stuff in the future. :(
