    Making the Transition

    I posted this originally on the New Player section but did not get any responses to this question. So I decided to move it here. Hopefully someone can shed some light on this for me.

    As of right now I currently play FFXI. I plan on making a slow transition from XI to XIV at the start of next month and I wanted to make sure my computer will be ok to run this. I made a few upgrades awhile back but I just want to make sure. Heres the basics I got at the moment. Thank you!

    - AMD Phenom™II X6 1055T

    - AMD Radeon HD 6850 1GB GDDR5

    - 80GB Solid State Disk

    - 4GB DDR3/1600MHz

    Why should'nt I do it? /sigh... its FF... I'v played them all and can not go without playing this one. I just need something new. I'v been rocking Vana'diel for many years and I have met every single goal i'v made. There is nothing left for me to do anymore. I'v completed every mission on all add-ons/expansions. I have SEVERAL 90 jobs that are all well geared. I just need something new. Its just not giving me the satisfaction I use to crave. The game has been put on easy-mode and its just not challenging enough for me anymore.

    Thanks for the heads up on the system stuff though, I'm looking forward to exploring, cause I heard walking was the norm at the moment :P

    The thing is that if you're expecting a world even remotely like Vana'diel in terms of lore, interesting zones, characters, etc. you'll be VERY disappointed. I'd honestly wait until they shell out more content and maybe flesh out the setting a bit more.

    I honestly hope it is nothing like FFXI. I would like a whole new experience. I know that it is similar is some ways but I can't just go off what people say. Best way for me to know is to install and give it a shot. I appreciatte the opinion though . The game has been sitting on my shelf since the release and I can't stare at it any longer lol..
