Feels to me like some of you guys, no offense, are brainwashing yourselves that why you lost so much time and achieve so little in term of gears, goals in FFXI was because it was meant this way and was OK and should be consedired and achievement and a fulfilling experience: I SURVIDED FFXI !

Sorry, that was because the game had so much flawed game mechanics problem that it relayed to the second plan the nice background,stories and ideas of FFXI, and replaced it with having to fight against the game itself to achieve something and took it away from the main goal: make it a game you can log in constantly and enjoy new content and share it with others, that you cannot do alone on your game system offline.

Never was it question of being a TIME 2 gil sucking whore AND worst than being beaten up with your keyboard on the head everytime you log in to call it a MMORPG...
