#1  My oh my! Well, I was at Gamestop today with Masamunemaster and he came over and showed me this disk. Well, it is a started disk for FF XI and it was only 5 bucks on top of a free 30 day subscription. So, I figured for 5 dollars, I will give it a try. So, my question is if I like it and decide to buy a subscription, is it really worth it? Right now it is installing (holy cow 8.5 GB to save), so its taking a little while.

 | Oh dear...installation takes waaay too long >.< I'm only playing for this summer, but so far I like it n.n They like to rip you off though...I think it's $12 per account plus $1 per character every month you play (and if you want to play two of them at the same time you need to make a separate account). ...aaaaanyway, it's really really fun, you'll find out for yourself. The thing is, you gotta dedicate yourself to it, or you fall behind your friends. |

| | Yeah, I am going on an hour and a half right now, that includes making my Playonline ID and content ID, which is Major Fetters by the way for anyone wanting to put me on their Playonline friend list. I am 32% downloading the final FF11 updates, the one with almost 18000 files. So yeah, starting to get a little sleepy and I have to get up at 7 in the morning. I know if I enjoy it, Im gonna buy it and play it with what few free time I have outside of class seeing how I begin my first college class Thursday(16th) not today @ 8:30. So, this will keep my going. |

 | You will only ever >really< need another character if you want a mule (And trust me... if you get into it, you will n_n  .I recommend giving it a really really good go before judging it, It's more massive than any FF game you will play pre-XIII (... Not sure about the life span of that one... as I have never played it n_n;; |

 | You will not have to make another character unless you need a mule to store equipment and materials. Plus, every other MMO costs around $15 a month, and every other MMO out there will not let you two-box on the same account. The monthly fee is good for the developers to create more content, fix bugs and keep everything in-game moderated. I think that if you are into MMO's, this is one of the more mature-based games than something like World of Warcraft. It is heavily party-based, focusing on battle mechanics and strategy (not to mention a lot of tedious grinding, but what MMO doesn't?). I had a lot of fun in the 3-or-so years I had played, hope you like it. |

| Banned | once you hit lvl 40. Your life on this game begins to resemble the slave wage existence/future that most Americans have. point being said. You end up working, but not getting paid, but instead paying your employer(SE) instead. |

 | If you have friends and you want to keep but cannot, then do not. Play at your own pace if you do and just play when you want to. I have played for 4-5 years now and I do not have a single job to the max level limit. Just take your time if needed and have a bunch of fun. Note: You will come to a place that looks like a desert when you enter. Only take the advice and guidance of that who have Rank 5 or higher. The people in this area tend to think they have a knowledge about the game that they think surpasses their own comprehension. |
