1) it's harder now because a large portion of the playerbase is "higher" level, so lower party leveling is more difficult than before.
2) depends on your playstyle. but many people really enjoy the level up process so they do that repeatedly, get…

I like how you continuously quoted "the skill thing." If I quit the game why would I remember what it's called?
i don't expect you to remember what it's called. i'm calling it that so you'll know what i'm…

6 hits to make the battle anything other than boring tv? Yeah, that's a great game. Keep filling your response with insults rather than counterpoints though, that doesn't make you look ignorant at all.

I highly doubt they will go for a new MMO based on the FF franchise. First they have to see how the expansion will do and then they will decide.
they are already working on a "next-gen" MMO (PS3, 360, Vista). and …
you pay for 1 account, and you can log in on PC, PS2 or 360 if you want. but you can't log in at the same time.
if you're logged into your PC and you log into your 360, your PC account will disconnect.

"lack of solo content" means most jobs can not reasonably gain experience solo.
most jobs in FFXI can not reasonably gain XP in groups of 2 or 3. the difference between XPing solo and XPing in a group is so tremendous people would rather seek PT …

Hades and Remora have the lowest Japanese populations because they were new servers created after NA release.
But they are also known for some wacky problems that are not as prevalent on the more established servers. all other servers are close t…

The very structure of the story and the world in general doesn't lend itself well to the MMO design for all the reasons that it does lend itself well to the 1v1 fighting game…
