Old FFXIV-player coming back
I just recently wanted to give FFXIV another chance and installed the game once again. Last time I quit playing because of lots of bugs, a poor interface and generally very difficult learning curve. Now that I've come back I tried it out for about a minute and wanted to relog, and I noticed in the chat box that I couldn't because I wasn't in passive mode. Wow, I totally forgot that and now I'm reconsidering to start a new character just to "learn" the game from scratch since I clearly have forgotten a lot.
Has this game improved since launch? Do you guys have any tips for a newbie like me and are there some sort of tutorials or guides to the game?
