Would you agree with these cons?Follow

I didn't even like Con-Air, so no way am I agreeing to any more cons.

Maybe if the thread was titled "Would you agree with these KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!s?"

point i was making is those that avoided crafting in FFXI had OTHER reasosn to explore (like neededing to find their af coffers) in otherwords give MULTIPLE reasons to explore not just one

Although I don't necessarily agree with your cons, the problem I see with the combat is that its way too fast-paced and flashy. At some points you can't even see what you're fighting as the party size increases. Also some dungeons are boring. /2cents

Combat - It's already a lot faster than it was previously. 1.0 was a lot faster than XI, and now ARR is faster than 1.0. My 2 cents anyways.

chat - Most people on pc are going to be using some sort of other chat service. Most of which would probably work better than anything they can pump out in such a short time. I'd rather they not release one and just wait a while after release that way they can do it properly. This also gives them time to work on a ps3 one as well if it ever makes it into the works. It's really only an issue for ps3 users if they don't have a ps3 right next to a computer.

no interactions - Personally, I would include gathering in this topic. The gathering jobs are very important to the crafters. You can go and interact with the environment and gather lots of items to sell. Also, not ready at launch, but Yoshi has mentioned that the gathering jobs will also eventually be able to find maps to treasures hidden around the world. Something similar to FFIX. That's where he got his inspiration.

quests - Please realize they didn't include all the quests they were going to have ready for the launch. Also, the quests you've seen only go up to around lvl 35. I'm sure they get much more complicated around lvl 50.

interface - I suppose I agree. I liked the old interface from 1.0, but most people didn't, so I'm ok with them changing it. I'd rather have to learn a new interface then keep the old one and annoy the heck out of most of the player base. Other than that, I can always map the keys to ones that I want it to be and not what it's default setting is.

I'd like to see dungeons you can explore without having to grind with a party myself.

What I said is true. Low bandwidth and ram prevents massive chat rooms and cross game chat on ps3.

That part is true, but the PS3's limitations aren't the reason why FFXIV doesn't have voice chat. The game never intended to have voice chat which means that any of the PS3 limitations you want to point out are moot to this discussion.

yeah especially since they even said there would be non instanced dungeons

Main quest line stops at ~20.

NPC quests stopped at ~15-20 range in Phase 3, depending on if you're talking about class quests (15) or the zone quests (20).

They do have 20-30 quests for Gridania, but they were not included in Phase 3 for some reason.

This is ignoring Guildleves.

This is right. In phase 3, the main quest line took us far enough to be able to access chocobos and the market board. The other quests were cut off at the same point. That means that there is at least another 30 levels worth of quests to be added.

Guys I think we misunderstood the OP...

I think it's a game...

The title of the thread asks: "Would you agree with these cons?"

I think it's a conditional statement with a prize waiting for us if we agree.

So my answer is: Yes, I would agree... now what do I get?

I do not like troll threads and spam.
I do not like them, Bartel Man.
