Do you remember your first time playing FFXIV?

I remember playing through Beta and hoping a lot of the issues would be resolved for the retail release. When I got the retail release I quickly noticed it was pretty much the same version as open beta. Still very laggy UI, 5 seconds to sell each item to an NPC, etc.... They fixed some of these issues but people were quitting left and right. If it wasn't for the decision to make it free to play I would probably be gone as well.

I was only allowed to experience the open beta for 5 minutes :|
