Alpha First Look: Video 5 - Quests and Combat

[RoninDarkchild]

Did someone just say FFXI had a good quest system??? Super vague quests that dont tell you what youre looking for, or where.... forcing 98% of the game population to look up a wiki, or shout in town for just basic direction.... if you like directionless question with no markers dont look at the map then... go explore to your hearts content...

telling you what area to go to, and what npc to speak with, and what thing to defeat is basic quest structure...
FFXI questing was stupid...

Yeah I totally agree with you. Yes sure having the game tell you where to go and even having markers on the map to guide you may seem or is very elementary yet I don't mind it at all because it saves me time since I never play on windowed mode and would have to turn on another computer to look for info on the quest. To me that wastes time since I dont have much of it available. If you have all the time in the world to play then by all means don't read the quest directions, don't look at the markers, log off, go look for the quest info online, relog to the game again and go on your marry way.
