I found the Final Fantasy XI Vana'diel Collection 2007 for cheap, so I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any previous posts about this MMO.
FFXI is notorious for its grind. In this, it's kind of an old-school MMO. Further putting some people off, the game works best when controlled by... a gamepad! Designed for consoles, this isn't surprising, but certainly not the norm for MMORPG's. I actually like it, because I play on the big screen in the living room, anyway, and can do so with my wireless controller from the couch. Definitely a unique experience.
However, I'm not sure if I'm up for the grind. You also need groups for most of the interesting things in this game. Maybe I just don't have the stomach for it and should go back to the *cough* "casual-friendly" WoW.
But the mission stories are supposed to be good...
