    I wanted to try not relying on a walk-through too much for this game
    Even if you want to figure out the missions and quests and such on your own, the wikis are an invaluable reference for all the items, content mechanics, and such that will be useful to you so you can figure out where the items you want come from, how to get them, and all sorts of stuff. The wikis also generally seperate the plot details from the quest walkthroughs, so you can avoid spoilers if you do get stuck. It really is worth reading about the Jobs you wish to play and their spells/abilities ahead of time so you have a better idea what everything does when you get it. Because unlike modern MMOs, the game doesn't tell you exactly where to go and what to do most of the time, you often have to talk to the NPCs around you to gather information. But in all fairness, for many of us, piecing together clues and figuring all this stuff out was part of the fun. I bring this up mainly because it can be quite daunting for new players, especially of today's generation who are used to today's MMOs being a certain way when FFXI is quite different from most of them.

    Of course other players in the game can also guide you. I'm not on Asura but I can try to help with anything you think to ask about.

    Right right. I appreciate the information and the help, and hope you have a pleasant morning, evening, or night, whichever timezone you're in.

    Btw, to anyone who comes across this post and is starting out in Windurst, after you get through the tutorial missions in Windurst Woods I found that the missions from the guards in Port Windurst is a good step to go if you're having frustrations with some of the drops missions like I am

    I think they're looking for the experience or they would have thought to look for that.

    I think so too, but I wanted to throw it on the table.

    Besides, for all the hours it took me to assemble those videos, it'd be nice if somebody watched them. I suppose that somebody should be me, since i did create them for my own enjoyment.
