I find some parts a little stale, leveling, lack of direct quests, and a few other minor details but it is a brand new MMO it has plenty of potential and much time to grow like WoW and other larger mmo games have. For me it's always been the community that ties me to an MMO versus the actual game itself. I prefer playing a crappy game(Not that ff14 is ugly :P ) with a bunch of my crazy friends over a beautiful game alone. I played WoW for over 5+ years and what finally cut it off for me was the group of friends I used to play with broke apart and moved on to other things in their lives. I think if we give this game time it'll be awesome. Until then I'm going to go fish and chat with friends via LinkShell :P
