Some forget who work at Undead Labs. Jeff Strain and James Phinney both are former Blizzard and ArenaNet employees who only made the most successful games on the markety today, WoW and Guild Wars. This team is really awesome and do not underestimate them. It is going to be good! :)
I was a huge FFXI fan but sadly I will not be buying after experiencing the game mechanics in beta. Betwewen the fatigue system and making crafting into more of a real life job is insane. Too bad they just couldn't give us FFXI a 2010 paint job instead of giving us FFXIV.
It seems they want you to play all the characters instead of maxing out 1 character in 2 weeks so to speak. You still have to level other professions so that your main one can use their skills when combined. I don't see it as a major issue from that perspective but... when you are making us pay for the box and characge a monthly fee we don't need big brother telling us what to do with our own time and money.
This is all fine and dandy but what about the issues with T2 and T3 being totally empty on the servers ? You actually need a population of players to enjoy a game.
