    We run something and she's all "that was FUN" and I am like, "I'm so glad it's over "
    Yup, just doing one dungeon drains me to the point I don't even want to keep playing. oh wells, pushing on through it lol.

    i will resay what was said, it's not a solo game, if you want a solo experience into a mmorpg, you are totally missing the point of this sort of game. the Final Fantasy game franchise was always based on a group model, like said before by other than me, the only difference it's you don't control all the party member.

    if you don't like dungeon, grouping,.... why are you playing mmorpg??

    Whenever I see someone say things like this, I sit here and wonder where I could find a game like FF or WoW or RIFT that is a single player game. People trot this statement out all the time, and I'm always stumped by it, because I've never found a single player game that's the same as these MMOs. I mean the same combat mechanics, the same type of deep and immersive storytelling, the same sort of other game play like crafting, collecting, flying, exploring, etc., and the same three dimensional world (not an isometric one like Diablo3--ick).

    Group content isn't my favorite thing, and hasn't ever been. It's a LOT better in FF than in WoW to be sure because the community (so far) in FF is nicer, but it still causes me a great measure of anxiety to do group content and I'd be happier NOT doing it. Give me a game like these MMOs that ISN'T an MMO, and I'd be thrilled.

    So where is it? If anyone could point me toward it, and it was as fun to play as FF is for me right now (and WoW and RIFT used to be for me) I'm there.

    You explain this well. Someone show me the game that is constantly growing with all the things I love about this one and frequent updates and new stuff, and I'm there. Till then, this is a good place, save for a few things.

    I did love Lotro, with all the solo options for the epic story, which is like our MSQ except not gating, but they are recently moving away from that due to the group or quit crowd...

    You are wrong. A MMO is just as much of a solo game as it is a group content game. It is a Virtual world RPG that expands. Having other players to do content with is a option, but is no shape or form what all a MMO is and what it offers. Anything else I need to clear up?

    Also it is force grouping because content solo content is behind group content walls in the story. To do the things that are fun solo, you got to do groups. Thus that is forcing players hands.
