I'm thinking of getting on Final Fantasy XI (finally) once I get a bit of income. does anyone here still play on it? I had the beta version so I remember it a little (I think this was like three years ago or something) but I'll be a total newbie and will have basically no knowledge of anything. I dont know, it all depends on if I can even afford it once I get working again.

I have very little nice things to say about a game that utterly hates you until you reach level 40, 300 hours later

I just gave up, a few days ago and this is the 2nd time I've put the game down. A lot of it has to do with a lack of money, but to be honest the game was really starting to bore me. Apparently it gets a lot better when you can party (around level 10), and I didn't make that. Give it a shot though, you don't have to pay for years, just try it for a month or two.

Oh god no.

Honestly the only real fun I've had in FFXI comes from feelings of schadenfreude:

- "Stealing" monsters that drop rare items right under the noses of lame-ass high-level douchebags who don't even need it except to level up their seventh or eighth job to 75
- ...

Short list isn't it?

Xavi was wrong; this game hates you forever. This game is irredeemably broken and SE won't do jack about it except laugh at all the suckers who pay $12.95+ every month and try to convince themselves that they're having fun.

Good luck!

What I said -_-........

I always wanted to play this damn game, but as if now I can't because I don't have a credit card to pay the fee every month....well I use to have couple credit cards but thats a different story.

I still play. And I'm on Fenrir as well. So if you wanna get together and taunt Rachel sometime let me know. :) As for the antics of the game, as long as your happy with what your doing who cares if others die in your wake?
