I love Final Fantasy, but when you compare 14 to any other Asian MMO, outside of the graphics and maybe 2-3 other factors, it just feels like you generic MMO art-wise. Doesn't really matter how many anime beams or anime spell attacks you throw at us (OH WOW, LOOK AT THE COOL ATTACK/HEALING SPELL! WHOA! ...lol), if they don't have substance, then it's kinda boring. Even the Sage doesn't look all that impressive. So you have beam weapons, and buff/healing spells for allies, big whoop...
The game's got a TON of customization tho. Wish WoW could expand upon their own customization shit.
