One foot after the other, as they say!
Bayohne, wonderful news absolutely wonderful. Doho and I were discussing that any chained action for parties would come after the battle system was finalized. Keep up the good work.

Duelle, as its friday and I am tired. I will say this thank goodness I do not play this game of xi with you. You have the most pessimistic perception I have so far encountered. But I will make a quick remark, in xi yes it was a party orietnted game you are right. However not everyone or every role was pigeon holed into one specific role, it did happen to most but not all classes. Reason i say this is because xi was not only a exp grind game, there was other content. I am taking into account all the content in the game not just exp. Ya in a exp party fighting rdm was not a melee dd there. But a GOOD rdm knew when to magic burst on a skill chain. That is as you put it a useful use of a skill.

I am done arguing about this, but I would suggest you look at the bigger picture and not just one portion of the game.
