<div class="IPBDescription">Soon...</div> So yeah, Final Fantasy XI is coming out soon and I'm just wondering who's interested in playing it?
I usually stay well clear of MMORPGs, but this looks pretty damn cool to me. Rawr, Black Mage smackdown for me I think!

Okay. While you miss out on the best MMORPG ever because of $12 a month, (That's what? An hour or two of work?) we'll be having tons of fun. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Okay, make a massive game like FFXI, run 25 servers that have to be up almost 24/7, and NOT make it pay-to-play.

/me waits until zombie status then uses holy water on inf
Bah, i was gonna try get esuna in there somewhere, but i forgot it doesn't cure zombie status.
do you feel lucky, well do ya punk?
I thought the best MMORPG ever was supposed to be Star Wars Galaxies? Oh wait, that one sucks royally. Good thing there is no way at all that could happen to FFXI. I think I'll wait until the reviews start pouring in anyway, just in case.
12 bucks for that
pay an extra 1 buck and play UO..you can do A LOT AND I MEAN A **** LOAD A LOT more then u can on a FF MMORPG game.
It's really, really fun. To equate it to EverQuest is an insult, really. Also, you don't HAVE to join a party. You can solo, it's just a bit harder.
Square headquarters
PR Consultant: Sir FF X-2 is only estimated to make 300 million dollars and the last story board writer went insane after you told him you wanted to cut the devolpment of six characters and just add in a cutscene where Cloud McSyphon Badazz flys around on a jet powered hand glider.
Satan: Well that's too bad....hmmm....well seeing as how were out of writers.......make an MMORPG
Consultant: Will that go over with the fans?
Satan: They bought FF8 didn't they?

ahahahha so true.
and boo to all you heathens who think Square has stopped caring about story. FFVIII had a story, albeit a convuluted one that you had to think about.
Well i've only played 8 and 10, apparently the two worst. I would have to say I preffered 8, if only for the 2 most awesome cutscenes in the history of time.
You know what I mean, the D-day esque Dollet landing, and the Whole Battle of the Gardens part..... I nearly peed myself just thinking about it.
Supposedly 7 is the best, must borrow it off my m8.
As for FF11 I certainly will get it, since i'm a fan of MMORPGs. Well, technically i've only ever played one, so technically I guess i'm an Ultima Online fan. Ah UO, we had some good times, but no more, for I have seen all you have to offer, and don't have several years to spend becoming a Grandmaster Mage.

For story line,
6 ranks in at #1 for best FF (or any RPG) story line, EVER, talk about charecters, not only that but the game is f'ing huge.
7 comes in far behind at second.
Still, *MUST ACQUIRE ALL KNOWN SQUARESOFT GAMES*
I love and hate them with equal passion.
On the one hand you get to go on an adventure in foreign lands, meet new people, see new places, do new stuff.
On the other hand, it's full of stupid numbers and half the things you 'do' are done for you by dull, boring numbers with very little influence from your part. Want to be a lvl 10 spellcaster? How do you get there? KILL STUFF!!!
It's the answer to everything... cooking rice better, making better pottery, becoming more efficient at stealth; somehow it gets better because you kill stuff. The stuff never changes either, if you go and wipe out all moogles on gaia's navel, guess what? They're still there!!! Nothing's extinct, nothing's moved in to fill the life void, nothing's changed. There's still a big plain full of monsters that don't really appear to have a reason for being there other than to get in your way and provide you with better, though completely unrelated, skills.
I've ploughed through a lot of MMORPGs and I'm seriously getting sick of the number-crunching kill-fest that poorly disguises these over-glorified chatrooms. If square hasn't tried to break the mold then they're not getting any of my money, that's for sure ><
