ooo added little twist!~ Still, I was hoping the materia system was going to be like, ya know, where it came from.

I'm sorry, but, so far it's all about instanced dungeons and 100s of quests that are not going to have meaning....... that's pretty blah if you ask me.


And what do you mean about invisible list?

Yes, because "GOBLINS ARE STEALING MY CROP" is sooo meaning full............................................................................................

it wont be completely gone, you will have to kill those said monsters in these quests... ; ;

Point is though, that it wouldn't be a very smart move for them to take out the option. Especially from a group that contains ffxi veterans. If they want to put an emphasis on questing, then that is great. It is just more options when leveling up your classes.

i agree, and would like grinding but who knows what 2.0 will do to there xp.
