Alleged FFXIV open beta (AKA Squeenix fails at the internet)

You've pretty much summarized my feelings on the matter. Particularly the gold nugget analogy.

I did love the crafting system, too. I thought it was excellent, and it's probably what made me sink 10 hours into it instead of 1 or 2. I liked how they did levequests too, at least the few I did. Letting you choose the quest difficulty and so on was pretty awesome.

Two of my friends are going to buy the full game, and I will probably use their trial guest passes to try it again at full game launch. Assuming SE doesn't force me to make a new account for a free trial. Given the patcher, I'm assuming anything could happen now.

I guess to extend the analogy, I'd rather play with my other silver and gold nuggets without having to wade neck deep through shit. A lot of MMOs launch kind of crappy though, and I'll revisit.
