Call me crazy, but I don't see what the big deal is.


I think the main reason so many people were against it is because squaresoft has a penchant for making strong, intelligent, compelling characters with deep personalities and interesting pasts. However, with the release of FFXI, this need for impressive characters was thrown to the wood chipper as soon as the first user with the name Sephiroth7231121 (sorry bout that DS ) started playing. The plot itself may be brilliant, but when your cast of characters includes the noble red mage Cloud1337 and the devious thief SSJOMEGATIDUS, it tends to get a bit redundant.

The problem with MMORPGs is that no matter where you go, there will be some degree of stupid people. And squaresoft doesn't go well with stupid, as we've seen in the past. So it's not really square's fault because they didn't make a bad game, they just made a game so good that the stupid people want to play it too.

...in the two and a half months I've been playing this game I think I've seen two or three people with names bordering on previously used titles.

Not that that manages to change the stupid quotient any, I just thought I'd like to clear that up

I know, I was really just exaggerating. My point was more toward the idea that stupid people exist online and Square doesn't really make stupid characters, meaning the game felt less storyish and more competitionish. I always cruised through FF games. You can't really do that too well in an MMO, you've got to constantly play or else it gets kinda overwhelming. Single player games you can put down for awhile, come back, and say "hey, this is pretty neat." Not to say you can't do that with an MMO, it's just more common to do for a single player game.

Why waste your time on a sub-par MMORPG. ;

I threw this out literally within the first week of buying it. And just went back to SWG.

That's pretty much the exact same thing as I did.

Now I'm just waiting for both WoW and EQII. Oh, and MxO. If all of those end up being disappointments, I'm fucking done with MMORPG's. I swear to god.

Meh it is all opionon appraently people like it, but unless you make a few friends that are on as much as you, are great players, and will only party with you (forming a static party in a way, then you will have trouble liking the game. I on the other hand have all of the above.

Blizzard is making it.

It takes them along time to do anything.

But if they were to make a single piece of dog crap, it would take 4 years, and then another 1 in delays, but it would be the best dog crap in the universe.
