Why should I be excited for Grind Parties?

That's funny, I remember alot of people, like me who played for 7 years quit during the Astral Burn/Abyssea bullshit. I would still be playing ffxi now if it wasn't Abyssea and exploits like Astral Burns. I remember the most fun I had after Astral Burns hit the scene was hanging out in K.Tunnel waiting for a group to mass pull after about an hour of waiting, then watching them level sync and me Astral Burning there mobs before they hit em. The anger and cries were amusing. Either way I'm happy to see ffxiv taking the party role from ffxi and introducing it here.

Yeah played FFXI about 7 years and quit on abyssea.
