I'm personally still waiting to see what's going to happen after Abyssea, but my expectations are low. If nothing else, it's still a good place to waste time until Dragon Age II-Skyrim-Mass Effect 3 show up this year. And it's a hell of a lot cheaper than smoking.

If you're a new player coming in, here's my recommendation:


Start with White Mage and *do what you can* to get some high-level contacts that will let you key-*** to 90(Once you gain access to Cure V you'll actually be called on to heal) and pimp up your White Mage. Once that is done, you can establish the vast network of social webbing required to pull the strings and make ***happen.


*-> Posing as a Female and saying "I'm just a new gurl wanting to get up to some high lvl raid content, WoW was too stupid and ugly for me though* Will work 9000% of the time if you come off as convincing and are hume/elvaan (Nobody believes Mithra iz wimminz anymore).

Bonus points for posting chat logs.

I'm seriously considering doing this, for science.

Then saving all chat logs and videos on a private blog.

Then eventually wooing a guy, and then showing him my penis.

FFXI has pretty much become what private servers used to be. SE letting people have whatever they want in no time at all.

Log on on your first day, SMN burn to 30, get in abyssea as leech log out later that night @ lv 90.

Next day get all AF 3 +2.

Win the game.

-Boring-

What's the point anymore? It's like SE is trying to get people to quit and join XIV instead (which sucks donkey balls as well).

inb4 If you don't like it, dont play - I quit FFXI 2 months ago.






Yup, I started WoW a week ago, and I'm not ashamed for that =P

Why bother playing this dead game? Also, 90$ for all the expansion you are missing. It's time for a reality check. Unless you're making 80k+ year then i guess it's ok. :P
I dont know where you get 90 dollars from, it's 14 to buy the game to up abyssea then 10 dollars for each abyssea expansion

Even if you decided to lvl a mule character with you, we're only up to 70 dollars for both playonline accounts and all expansions


Actually you could have got the game from Steam for 5 bucks up to Abby. That's how I got mine. Steam ran the 4.99 special twice. Once around Thanksgiving and once around Christmas. It advertised on this website.

So for 35 bucks, you can be up to date on expansions.

It's ok, I much rather waste my time in WoW where you dont have to rely on other ppl to progress.

I'm dark elf (I think that's what it's called?) hunter lv 40.

Used to play a few years ago as well, was druid back then.

You should ashamed, and you will be back.

At the OP, FFXI isn't dead, it's just in its retirement years.

And thank you SO much for creating the 1,000,000th FFXI forums thread entitled something like "FFXI Dead?" ... you win a $500 shopping spree at your local grocery mart.

There are a lot of things to do on your way to and at the level cap so explore unfamiliar content and you might find it fun. Have you tried the dungeon and PvP BG queues? BG PvP is really easy and very fun once you get the feel for it. What have you done so far in it?

I haven't really done a whole lot. I'm making money lol, mining/skinning ftw! I went to some dungeon a few days ago, but someone got mad and kicked me lol. (Guess I lotted a dagger as hunter when there was a rouge in the pt, Oh noes!)

~2 years ago when I played my druid, I pretty much solo my way to lv70 through quests and warsong catch the flag battle.

So far this time around I've pretty much only been questing and making money. Got a 2nd toon though that I'm playing together with a r/l friend whenever we both got time for it.

I think they made PvP even more viable as a leveling method since the level brackets are in segments of 5 instead of 10. It used to be if you were in the bottom levels of a bracket there was no point you know? Everyone always targets and pwns you :( And yeah people getting mad about dungeon loot is so silly. I've had people Q.Q over that ***too and it's like: dude, in 3-4 levels you'll be sporting a new weapon. Stop Q.Qing and get some levels xD

WoW have changed a lot since I played 2 years ago though. I still havent made up my mind if its for the better or worse yet. So far its def not as bad as FFXI is these days.

Besides, I kinda enjoy running around by myself doing quests and such. I'm in some guild though, so there's ppl chatting nonstop lol.

And I guess it's both good and bad having WoW split up in zones depending on where you live, atleast in this game there's always ppl online when I am, and there's no "JPonry" lol.

I wish you could have a char on EU server and one on NA server from the same account though :(

The NA and EU segregation is what puts me off mainly. A load of my friends are NA so It's kinda annoying I can't play with them.

Plus I'm unemployed so my sleep patterns are generally similar to an NA player.

Well, my old account was on NA server (because I had NA friends I wanted to play with). If you get the game online you can chose if you want the NA or the EU version.

Ah that's cool. I'd probably get two accounts if I were to play anyway, one EU and one NA.

I'd really want to play it, but I dunno if I can deal with starting a new MMO atm. XIV is enjoyable enough for me anyways.

I'm planning on quitting XI sometime this year. I've been playing since just after CoP release. I'd really like to move to ffxiv, but i have to wait on ps3 release, whenever they decide to release it =/

Probably around the time they actually finish making the game (go go releasing a product too early) and/or get a bigger player base

So.. anyone new who joins can't level? buy gear? earn gil? what is this crap? a game for only end gamers now? an even so how does SE expect us to level new jobs to play like this? I look forward to mature comments/replies, anything else will be ignored.


SE did say they were focusing all there content now on end-game and no longer towards new players etc. They have given up on recuit a freind programs and otherwise adverting the game. However they have left ways for players to steadly level through the low and mid levels, you do need to try more then what you had to before, but it is still quite easy to get accounts up in levels. I do wish there was lower leveling going on, but it dosnt seem that is the greater want of the comunity on our server any longer.

I think this whole thread is invalid. Honestly there is no point in playing any kind of MMORPG or video game for that matter.

We all do it for just poops and giggles, and that's really the only reason I play. To have fun. And beating up crap with new abyssea stuff IS fun. For people that want a good story line go play Mass Effect or something like that.
