It's been about a year now. Just got back to the game after cancelling for FFXIV. Playing FFXIV everyday from August 2013 until earlier this month, I ended up NOT being happy with the community (players are unforgiving of players who haven't done the content even if they are good learners).
I got another Xbox 360 and still had the original two discs; the first disc having FFXI, Zilart, CoP, and AU on it, as well as a separate WotG disc. I re-downloaded the game and reactivated my content ID.
I don't have a linkshell and I just found out about Unity (but haven't accessed it yet). I'd say this: I say a shout for a few things I haven't done. Let them know this, and still got invited. In FFXIV, I grew tired of "Experienced players only!" even for content that was released less than three days ago lol...
I'll continue to take my time and play catch up. I'm old school, and I'm still having trouble parting away from from 85 Kannagi and +2 Empyrean gear for that new stuff.
Kinda crazy, though. In 2008, the /sea all nin would return a bunch. By late Abyssea, EVERYONE was NIN, and I didn't feel exclusive, so I went COR. Now, the search shows under 40 NINs often. Did I miss something? This make it hard for me now to continue NIN or COR (I like to focus one job).
Anywho, I'm on Asura.
