    Failed Tojil runs, 9 out of 10 times comes down to bad whms and schs not stunning. They know it but they can't make those people mad since those gimps that keep replying to the shouts are the only ones they can get.(not you with out oats but the gimp schs and whms that ruin runs).

    I still play FFXI because partly I have no real choice, I have a GF who wants me to keep playing this so we have something to play together we both like, also, I have a few friends who insist I stay and play, which is why 2 months ago I did not depart as I said I would. Past that, I know this game has potential in some areas they have not flushed out, and I enjoy what they have been doing to change that, things like Trust and Monstrosity as well as Records have shown they still want to make this game great, they are just not sure how to go about it, but are starting to take the proper steps to do it right.

    FFXI keeps releasing enough new and interesting content to keep me from canceling my sub. I don't play as much as I used to, but I still get really excited for each update and generally spend a few weeks playing every day or every few days.

    Monstrosity is a fun, almost relaxing low brain power activity that I enjoy doing while chatting with linkshell friends. Customizing the monster is fun to do also while not having to worry about inventory space.

    The removal of the party limit for things like assault and savage has gotten me to dust off my automaton and try running those solo or with a buddy.

    Short answer: I still play FFXI because I still have fun playing FFXI.

    I play for the sheer fact that there's more to it than Delve. I finished up collecting my delve boss items, there's no point in going back so now I've decided to do other, more fun things like take full advantage of the double exp and work up to get every set of af armor. It'll be Grindy but hey there's story to watch while I do it!

    Either way, shunning someone out of the event that the item they need comes from, just because they do not have said item, I remind people "There is no record to be set, get your friends, then raise your karma and help someone. If you're an elite player, act like it and lend a helping hand"

    My views have shifted to more extreme manners, but figuratively I think people who exclude others from the event that yields the required item, because the person does not have the required item, need to simply be dragged out into the street and be beaten with a bat.

    Since tomorrow, the free trial will end, I'm just gonna post my thought...

    For 1 thing, XI does have this unique quality that attracts me still. There's still vast amount of content yet to be done, although I am glad that I have at least finished all storylines including expansions & add-ons in such shorter time, granted that I started this since XIV 1.0 ended.

    And I still wish I could continue this, but several factors gonna make me have to postpone subbing this:
    1. It is really hard to commit with more than 1 MMO. Right now, I'm dedicating more to XIV since it's my 1st MMO and patch 2.1 has given quite amount of activities to do. Won't gonna have much time on other MMO I'm afraid.
    2. XI payment system has left me less desirable to continue. After all this time, they still only give 1 option of payment, and that's monthly payment only. No dual, quarterly, or half year payment options plans. Plus in XIV, I have legacy discount, so XI price feels a bit too steep.
    3. Although I do understand the reason behind these limits, space has been always a problem. And the counter-measure to expand via tickets and such were kinda makes it a bit complicating. At least I kinda wished special stuff like R/M/E has their own personal space so it won't gonna cost space and players can keep farming those without the need of managing your spaces. Plus, I still kinda want to avoid using mules just for extra spaces. XIV in a way has given quite right direction for this space issues: Armoire for keeping AFs & Seasonal stuff, retainers with quite big space, the upcoming Vanity system, and not allowing to mule by requiring to send items to friend list only.

    All and all, I still won't abandon XI. I love Vana'diel so much. But I don't know when I will come back to this world again. There's so much I want to do both at Vana'diel... and Eorzea.

    Simply put... I'm not finished yet. 2 more jobs to level, and I'm going to finish the rest of the story.
