Originally posted by thunderC One of the worst reviews i have ever had the displeasure of reading on this site.....
Actually OP got it all just right. But as they say when love is blind ... :-))
Many people would say blind hate is even worst. )
Agree, but forget about hate with me. I agree in all accounts because it is true. Imo of course as usually. Wow, swtor, ... have "best" haters community ... hating them for sake of hating. But not FF. Many have enjoyed long long ago FF on consoles.
I was so happy first day, that FF sound, that FF living world feeling, .... really in extasy ... then was unable to play nearly for week as so many ... ok, have survived, have not killed in me wish to be part of FF universe again after so many years, then was finally able to play at wish when had time .... after 3rd day upon reaching lv. 18 with few alts .... I simply could not force myself anymore to login. Disaster. Left for good. Game have again so many built in problems I do not think is possible to repair with simple patches. Of course for many THAT would be disaster as they are very happy with FF as iot is. :-))
At the end is all down to numbers what have they planned and what they have obtained with release. And this will be more clear only after first 30 free days when people should start to sub.
after the OPs comment at the top about a weak story line quest i stopped reading.
the storyline quests may be a lot things (both positive and negative), weak is not one of them.

Amazing how many fanboys this game has collected already. A lot are getting defensive and have resulted to name calling. It is obvious he put a ton of time in the game and is just stating his opinion. A good amount of what he posted is very true and none can deny that. Maybe a few things he said are personal rants, but overall his summary has a lot of facts about the game when compared to other titles on the market.

I agree with OP, he really hits the nail on the head.
