    Bad Dunes flashbacks ... *twitch twitch* >.<

    But, you're right, it was a rite of passage and where you learned to play your new job in a party. Painful, but necessary.

    Ah man I miss it. I might go back for a laugh. The dunes, it has such a ring to it.

    3 hour parties on the secret beach, learning your trade as a WAR without a subjob, then you see someone crack out Ifrit summon for the first time.

    Magic.

    That's my one thing - bring back the sense of wonder, the player made fun that sticks in the memory for years - like when I beat the sandy 2-3 Dragon Solo on my BLU. I'll never forget that.

    I can't think of a single experience in 14 so far that makes me look back and think, "wow that was so cool I wish I could do it again."

    Do remember this. Oh how I wish I could go back to being a newb in 11 back in the day (late 2003 being back in the day)
