| Re: Why FFXI? Well, I can't say I have much experience with the game, but I guess I'll give my opinion about it anyway. I played this game 4 years ago when it first came out for 3 months, but I only got up to level 25 in the classes RDM and WHM. I had to quit because of money issues, but joined back recently and now have a 25 BLM and WHM.
Although I've been playing a lot, my levels are still relatively low. The reason for this is because I don't play to just gain levels by fighting mobs of monsters after another. ( I could play WoW or any other MMORPG if I wanted to do that ) I play to just enjoy the world of Vana'diel and the game in general. I have a lot of fun just logging in to the game and doing simple sidequests that barely give you anything.
I've played WoW for 2 months and reached level 66, and got tired of it. It was just mob after mob of fighting for me. I participated in 1 raid and it was pretty fun but WoW definitely lacks storyline. We just constantly fight random mobs for stupid reasons like a girl losing a ring that was stolen from x type of monster, and so you have to kill that type of monster until you find it. It was more addicting to bash a monster's skull after another than fun.
Oh, and yeah, FFXI really isn't a PvP game. It involves a lot of socializing since you usually party to fight monsters starting at level 11+ -ish?
Well that's my two cents ._. Ketski : Carbuncle Tarutaru: WHM 25 BLM 25 WAR 25 MNK 18 RDM 7 |
