Hopefully my vendor-bought goods that I turn around and sell on the market board will pay off! | ||

Everything up to that point everyone should be able to do given enough tries, but is no longer the case since (at least currently, SE generally will nerf existing content after a while to let everyone catch on). | ||

I've done the 20dungeons already (need 25 to start next set) and aside from the turtle thing, it was simply gather up mobs and aoe them in 10seconds. FFXIV tries to train ALL players whether you're a seasoned MMORPG vet or a complete newbie. It introduces all types of things via the Story Line main quest and other things such as; Dungeons, Guild Hests and Duties. Later on things get difficult but not too overly difficult. But like someones mentioned before, once you hit Hard Mode Titan is when shit starts to get real. | ||

While grouped with a French player he mentioned playing through a VPN greatly reduced his lag, so maybe that'll be useful to some of you. | ||

Was wondering if I can buy game time with PayPal through their crystal system or something? I can just pick the actual game up from a store if that's the case since I have no credit card I bought the game using Paypal from eu.finalfantasyxiv.com, so it definitely works in europe at least. | ||

You can buy game card for it but not sure about availability, and it is a bit more expensive iirc.. | ||

The end game is actually extremely challenging. Even the ifrit boss fight was very hard for me. It took me 3 days worth of time before I finally got a group that could beat it. There was always someone that couldn't avoid the aoe, and it's basically an insta wipe if someone gets hit by that. It's refreshing to play an MMO that doesn't skimp on the challenge. | ||

I have to control and spread my damage so that I don't take the aggro off the tank, for instance. That's cool. CC'ing a strong mob is also important. But the best thing yet was when our tank died to a suicide-bomb-thing on a dungeon, and I kited the boss for the win :D Boss mechanics are interesting from the very first dungeon(err Duty), and the simple fact that I can play with a controller and it isn't that much of a hindrance makes it for me. I'm level 20, and I'm having tons of fun. Might need to stop playing this in order to study >_>" | ||

Many people don't even know how to use all their skills, they are supposed to get you used to dungeon mechanics if you have never played MMORPGs before. makes sense I guess. Sadly I'm a turbo nerd so that doesn't really apply to me.

We should group up sometime. I got my conjurer to 15 also, hoping to hit 30 today and unlock Paladin jobs. | ||

I also don't think it can be overstated how cool the story / cutscenes / music are, either. The music is a pleasure to listen to and rather varied, totally different from most MMORPGs where the music becomes really annoying really quickly. This is definitely the best MMORPG I've ever played hands down. Hopefully they implement some really interesting PVP stuff later on. | ||

I'm not really a big fan of the story at all. The "ohhh my head hurts, time to pass out and float around in the sky/crystals" stuff gets kinda silly. The cutscenes are OK and the music is bland in comparison to traditional final fantasy music IMO. Not to say its not enjoyable as a whole, but I think one of the reasons I enjoy it is because its simply "NOT WOW". | ||
