Haha. I played FFXI, and deary me, it was nothing I expected. IT was a good and fun class system, but everything else...was so... weird.

in all honesty, you can't play ffxi and expect it to be fun right away all alone. the entire basis of all ff games are parties and going through stuff with people. there are some parts in the game that would seem imposible for a new person to know what to do w/o some sort of guide, weather it be a book, online, or another person.

one of my theories is that most of the new people that quit, started their home nation in windurst >_>

Well I just finished playing FFVII: DoC, that was good. But, unfortunately I suck at shooting games, so it was a struggle to stay alive.
Now I'm havin a try at Okami, but I just started. It's smashing!

I had 3 other people with me. One who had a higher lvl who guided us, and two new people.

What I'm talking about, is that you can't tell what exact level the mobs are. You don't know WHO gives you quests, because you have to randomly run round a city and talk to all the people, lest the little kid hiding in the corner might give you a quest. You don't know if a mob is linked with another mob, you have to learn them ALL off by heart. You don't know if a mob is passive or if it's hostile, you have to learn all by heart.

And to use moves, you have to either go onto your menu bar and use them like that, or make macros. I mean, why was it so hard to make the macro already and assign it to a button in the first place?

Like I said, I heard that the party and the class system was amazing. and I REALLY wanted to try it to the best. But I got bored of everything else.

It's nothing special. MY friend's excuse to this was "You're just used to easy to play games like WoW. You're not used to hard games like FFXI"

It's not hard, just ridiculously necessary to lay out a game where the player not only has to grind like in all other MMO's, but where he has to learn EVERY tiny detail.

Not to mention, I got to lvl 21, and still left it. So I did not leave it before fully trying to experience it.
