    Re: So... what do you think of the new classes?

    It's ridiculous to say the two games are too different to compare and then list the differences because pointing out the differences is comparing them. Both games have class systems, design for cooperative play, battle mechanics, quest systems, art style, etc. that are clearly very different. We can talk about how these things are similar and dissimilar from what we're already familiar with and imagine what the game will be like based on those ideas, and that is a perfectly valid conversation.

          Re: So... what do you think of the new classes?

          I think it's perfectly fine to compare FFXI to FFXIV. Is it silly to expect FFXIV to be FFXI 2.0? Yes. Is it silly to compare them? No. We know how several things work in FFXI, and we know SE will be using some of those mechanics in FFXIV. Since we don't have demos of FFXIV to play, we can combine experience with FFXI and the information we have on FFXIV to theorize how FFXIV might work. Will it be correct? Maybe. Maybe not. But until FFXIV actually comes out(or the NDA is released on Beta) it's all we have.

            Yeah I guess this is more of what I meant when I said that you could not compare the two, its fine to do so, but don't look at FFXIV as FFXI 2.0, because its not.

              Re: So... what do you think of the new classes?

              FFXI is just a good starting point to describe XIV. Just don't start going "this won't work because XI was like that"

              but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence
              transform a yellow spot into the sun.

                FFXIV will always be looked at as XI 2.0 until it adds a new playable race XI never had. :p

                  so many things wrong with this statement I don't know where to start.....


                  guess I will start here though


                  all 5 races in FFXIV are "new"

                  They all have new stories to them, and hell all but the "humans" look different from their original FFXI cousins.

                      Yep. I was wondering when Jenova would post, she must be on spring break or something.

                        Who is? Actually what I keep hearing whenever it comes up in-game is how it's just another WoW clone, which makes want to punch people in the face. Not because I hate WoW, but because they couldn't be any more wrong on the matter.

                          I hate that more then anything, but most of the "WoW clone" people are morons that just say WoW clone to every MMORPG that comes out, without even looking at it.

                            Those asshats are so annoying. It's like they think WoW was the first successful MMORPG ever released.
