If you want to use your brain while playing XI, play white mage. You have to pay attention full time or *SHOCK* people die. You need to know what moves to watch for or your alliance can't function properly because they're slowed, paralyzed, or slept. xD

This is almost like comparing baseball to basketball. Yes, they're both sports that use a ball, but the rules and gameplay are largely different. Is one better than the other just because it's fundamentally different than the other?
