EPTEither way, my main complaint about FF15 is that the combat system feels EXACTLY like WoW or any generic MMO and the world isnt 1 big cohesive world. Instead you are forced to load into different area everytime you enter an area which made the world not feel like a world rather it felt like many many mini dungeons/instances. There was nothing really different from the combat beside the limit break. I just wished they put more effort in changing the combat system a little bit or feels some what different. EDIT: Not saying that a combat system like WoW is necessarily bad but they havent yet convince me that they were able to be on par or did it better than WoW.

It makes it really difficult to play with friends. They seem to not get some quests in my area, and vice versa. You don't get the story quests so it's very ill-advised to instantly go to another city because one of you is going to outlevel the other very quickly. | ||

Each of the 3 starting towns has their own quests til lvl 15 when everyone gets acess to airship travel and ends up on the same story quests. | ||

It makes it really difficult to play with friends. They seem to not get some quests in my area, and vice versa. There are three types of quests: Story quests, which you can only do once and are based in the nation you start in. Class/job quests which are specific to the class you're currently playing, and what I'll just call minor quests, which are available to anyone and are in all 3 starting cities. If one player runs to another nation at level 1 they'll be missing out on the story quests and class/job quests in their starting city. | ||

One thing that really struck me is that my girlfriend has been playing for nearly an hour and a half and it has been all story and no combat yet, its actually kind of refreshing for an mmorpg | ||

I imagine its so you know where everything is in the place. Was quite nice. | ||
