    This game is a masterpiece and best money spent beside charity

    Just finished the lvl 50 main story quests.

    i mean wow, this game absolutely rocks. the cutscenes literally mop the floor with the cutscenes of any other mmo to date.

    every other mmo (beside tsw) sacrificed much of the immersion and atmosphere by being a mmo, but definitely not this one.

    i do not care if this game does not have enough content for the (probably even cutscene-skipping) no lifers. It will definitely have enough for me, since i enjoy the whole palette of content it offers.

    Du wirst ihm die Geheimnisse des Kalenders verkaufen.
    Besonders über jene des elften wird er sich freuen.
    Der Kunde wird an einem warmen Tag zurückkehren
    und dich allein mit dem Mann mit Petruskreuz lassen.
    Der falsche vierte Mond wird aus dem Kalender fallen.
    Es verbleiben nur sechs Blätter.

    It's definitely a good game, but best cutscenes of any MMO to date? Hardly.

    I too am iffy on the cutscenes but I definitely appreciate the variety of content.

    In fact, I only got to Brayflox in the main storyline before I just got so wrapped up in finishing the storyline for all the Crafting classes. They are great! And you get a fun "AF" tool at the end! How cool is that?

    Then I got caught up in making millions of gil on the market right now which is completely out of control. 800 gil for a basket of Fleece!!! In 1.0 that would have been 8000 gil. 8k gil for one basket of fleece. Completely insane. Screw the storyline and endgame, I'm hitting the market hard while I can, so I can buy myself a mansion

    yeah, the prices are crazy right now. makes me believe the buyers of the overpriced stuff all buy gil (atleast on new servers) and then get hacked and then get used as spam bots.

    Until Garuda, the story is a poor final fantasy knockoff that feels more like fan fiction than a numbered title.
    After Garuda the story is pretty much over.

    I agree with OP. The juice is worth the squeeze.

    I found the story one of the strongest aspects of this game. However, the story between the major spoilers after Titan and the long build up to Garuda was the most excruciating and painful part. SE sure has a twisted sense of humour if they think I like being trolled from level 40 to 44.

    In addition: Coerthas Central Highlands. Everyone I knew who first entered this map was absolutely taken away by how beautiful it was. Yet, after the story, they all left to Mor Dhona so glad to be out of that annoying arc.

    Don't get me started on those terrible VAs.

    Other than that, decent starting story to base further stories upon. I felt we became way too famous way too fast in the early levels. The whole "omg, you're a hero!" thing was cheesy when I hadn't even left the starting region yet.

    There were way too many annoying busy-work quests between anything interesting happening.
    Overall, the story gets a C+.
    Judging just by the story up to Garuda would be a D-, for sure

    My favorite part of the game is when someone disconnects on hydra and you don't get credit AND have to wait 23 minutes to be kicked out. It's the best countdown simulator I ever spent $30 on.
