well i finally got a chance to play this and i gotta say… i don’t really like it! yes i’m kinda shocked too. maybe its because i was so used to the old game, or maybe its because i moved on to other mmorpgs that were different than the final fantasy mmo. i just don’t really dig it! not to mention there were a lot of issues with lag, which i should not have had.. my computer is a super beast and it should have chewed though that game like candy, but i lagged all over the damn place and i’m not sure if it was internet related or graphics related.

the quest set up is weird and i’m not sure if that was just tutorial stuff or if that’s how all quests are laid out, but you have to go to some sort of thing stuck in the ground, and talk to it, and it gives you quests, and then you go do them. the monsters i had to kill took forever to respawn but i think they were being over-killed by the sheer amount of people doing the same quests. not fun.

visually the game reminds me of final fantasy 11, right down to the character races. as i did in the old game, i picked an elf. “elezen” in this game, elvaan in the old game. not sure why they changed the race names if they were going to make the races exactly the same.

anyway i was less wow’ed than i thought i would be, but i was also a bit annoyed at the fail i had to go though just to play so i’m not going to say this game is awful, especially when its just a beta. but i probably won’t bother playing it when it comes out.
