6. Is there a shorter acronym accepted by the community than FFXIV:ARR?

7. Are there factions?

8. Is it really impossible to skip the intro cinematic video in space and on the cart with the moogles stealing wine etc? The first time was ok, but the second time I was trying to iron a shirt whilst getting an alt to the starting position, and I realised that its in redibly annoying. Not only couldn't I skip, I couldn't even just let it run whilst i did my ironing, as I kept on having to hit a button to advance the conversation with the tramp on the bus.

I'll probably think of some more, but that'll do for now. Loving the game so far, it's beautiful, and the score is amazing. And it runs like a dream! I played The Secret World for a while, or 'The Sec-runtime error 77464 The Secret World Has Stopped Responding', as I call it. After that lagfest, FFXIV:ARR is wonderful.
