Final Fantasy XI's rocky start?

[Arksniper]

They at least had quests. Instead of leves, which were like quests but always grind the same Marmots, Imps, Dodos, Yarzons, Moles, and Crabs and no fetch quests or "go talk to Y and come back" or etc and also required you to go to town, go to an outpost, go kill the things, then go back to the town to start it all over again.

This game has quests, quiet a lot of them for each of the 3 cities. I played 11 and the quests took just about a long as these ones do. Sure there was Eco-Warrior and Escort quests but thoes are no different that CG leves. Those quests also were just as exciting as these ones. Killing tigers for fangs, checking sign posts. The games are fairly identical for the most part. I loved FFXI played it from NA launch till release of 14. And I have played 14 from closed beta till now. I know this game will turn out great even after a first failed launch.
