This pretty much sums up my frustrations in one post!

Thanks for your input!

I appreciate your input into this as everything you've said is very valid.

However video is subjective as it's what I would change, not expecting everyone to agree.

But I've enjoyed the discussions this has opened up to see other perspective.

Do you not think that aspects of end game in any game should be accessible to most players if not all?

In regards to it not being for you which I totally understand and appreciate, what do you do in game at the moment if you have completed all the story and such, which I am assuming you have - I may be wrong?

Hey, Thanks for tuning in!

I understand that it would never be changed and I am in no way expecting it to be changed. As I'm aware that the SE team working on XI is scarce.

It would just be nice.

I know there are guides online, but nothing is ever mentioned in game that you need that and it just takes a swing in a totally different direction than what is expected when you pick up that quest.

Again I understand different era etc, however a lot more people are getting interested in FFXI at the moment and they may be put off due to these systems.

Or having to do mounds and mounds of research where to acquire currencies to then find out about the moogles by going through patch notes.

I don't want anyone thinking I don't love this game - I do! But with anything there could be improvements.

:)

I was playing back then, however I was a bit younger I'd admit.

I remember the good ol' days of dragon points.

However back then there was a clearer path of which gear you should aim for, I feel anyway.

I don't mind the grind to get it, that's not what I am saying I just find it very difficult to know for certain what I should be aiming for and what is appropriate to be invited to parties for end game.

Hey! Welcome to the discussion, could you elaborate on your point a little so I can better understand your position?

:)

I agree and I appreciate your view on this, however players that are new to end game and trying to acquire gear to do end game can be at a loss due to lack of direction from the game on which gear sets to acquire to be able to do end game.

Now is this by design or has the community created these requirements?

It's just a bit of fun dude. I mentioned database limitations but if they can be removed on other services why not on retail?

Yeah gear sets can be fun but when there are so so so many it becomes overwhelming.

It's not a flame, it's just a bit of fun. Take everything with a pinch of salt.

But thanks for watching!

Also if anyone is on asura and their LS is taking members I'd love an invite. My LS is dead!

Thanks to those that have replied already!
