Hi all!

Until about two weeks ago, I'd been only an observer of the FF series as a whole - really enjoyed watching the games being played - and had been hardcore enjoying watching my partner play FFXIV. Unfortunately my laptop is ridiculously rubbish, so I'd assumed that I wouldn't be able to join him in these wicked cool adventures he seemed to be having (and has been having for years), but I tried anyway. About five hours later, there I was, creating my first character. Huzzah!

I tried out a few roles first, was starting to get worried when none of them were what I was looking for, then decided to try out ARC - damn, it was like love at first arrow. Intuitive, fast-paced, can hit things whilst running around like a maniac... a definite winner. I've been playing often these past two weeks, and now I'm up to lvl 45 and still enjoying it. Planning to get to 50 by the end of the week!

(TBC)
