Let's not forget the most important facet, is the fact that this "minigame" does not equate to giving the player a form of convenient transportation ( something that has been a standard in almsot every other MMO on the market). Instead, it's yet another distraction to create yet another distraction (racing) in a game comprised of distractions - having lost player direction and "fun" since the release of Chains of Promathia.
Aht Urghan is a promising new expansion, but SE's habitual release of incomplete content in a retail package leaves much to be desired, especially after the year we had to wait to have CoP completed, and hated almost all of it.
Dio's right, most of us have grown up and expect alot more from the gameplay experience in the MMO market, and that's an arena FFXI has failed miserably to adapt to. define conveinent. you have chocobo's ,airships,and outpost warps. Aht Urghan introduced a new town. Al Zhabi, surronded by exp camps that are literally 5 minutes away thanks to the warps used for assault. and these camps are better than any previous ones(2 minute respawns).i'm a monk and id rather go to these camps than king ranperres tomb. to top it off al zhabi has everthing you could ever need. every crafting guild is present,a jeuno linked AH,and theres even an npc that will warp you to jeuno for free. ask any current player and they will probally tell you ToAU is infinately better than CoP was. I've tried WOW and i cant put my finger on the reason but i hate that game. i just couldnt get into it. maybee its the art derection heh. |

i demand more fire emblem characters. someone like Lyn or marissa would be awesome. Lyn might be a better choice because she could be a blade lord and a her big ass katana and a bow. lol could you imagine a knight/general? XD if you never played FE..........  |

Dirge of Cerberus will already be available in summer. Devil Summoner Kuzu no Ha Raidou tai Chouryoku Heidan will be available in the US this fall as well, so yes, there will be a Shin Megami Tensei-related game.
Personally I bought Final Fantasy XII in Japan last month and from the little I have played so far, I was not impressed at all. I have little time to play games right now, but if I had enough time, I probably would rather play Nouryoku Toreenaa 2 for PlayStation Portable or Ookami despite the annoying voice acting.
I have recently seen some in-game screenshots of Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII which looked decent. However, I will wait until Square Enix announces more details regarding the battle system, before I decide as to whether I should pick that game up or not. I'm also considering Persona 3, if I can get it for a reasonable price.
The game I'm anticipating most is Xenosaga Episode III: Also sprach Zarathustra. Since I will pick up the Japanese version, I won't have to wait until fall, though. I just hope, the story is good. your feelings on ff12 dont suprise me considering your disdain for action oriented rpg's. Please, do keep us informed when you get it. ^_^ from what ive seen in videos so far it already looks infinately better than the garbage that was XS2. both graphically and gameplay wise. thankgod they got rid of those horrible zone breaks. edit:laptop keyboards fail at life |

its easy enough already . you can solo with your npc theres rings thats boost exp gain,heck you could even sub corsair for enhances exp dice roll. If you have to spend tons of money getting silent oils and prism powders to sneak passed mobs that read as "Easy Prey", then it's not easy. you seem bitter lol? out of curiosity what was your main job? ive seen a few drks quit because they suck in endgame exp. |
