My first day was around a week ago. Bought the game in around 2004 but I never got round to installing it and it got packed away in a box, and when I finally found it again I didn't know if i should get 14, but XI is where I ended up.

After choosing my race and my class as a thief I ended up outside a big gate in Bastok, It was pretty cloudy if i recall and was really confused on how to move, so i was pressing every button on my keyboard trying to get my person to move. I started talking to every NPC I could find and ended up in my moghouse, which really shocked me because I wasn't expecting to have a little house with my own moggle (but I was so happy about the fact I found a moggle, almost felt like i was 15 again when I found them on FFIX).

Anyway I work out how to get the map up and found my way to Bastok Markets and explored a bit and found the Goldsmiths and AH. I talked to everyone in the Goldsmith, but I was totally confused on how to craft anything so I went to look for someone who could help, but I ended up finding the NPC who explains parts of game to you and sends you out to start leveling up.

I started them and pretty much got hooked, I saw a few people but didn't talk to them, but it's coz I'm never sure what to say. After 3 or 4 days though I finally talked to someone and learnt how to make copper ingots and after I made one i was so chuffed. I will say its hard getting Gil and improving equipment, but i find it adds to the fun
