I came a bit late to the party compared to some here, as I didn't join FFXIV till Beta 4, however when I did join, I was instantly hooked. I'd pretty much been drifting since my days in EQ on the FV server. Only a few games have been able to hold a candle to EQ as far as my enjoyment, FFXI among the short list. In most games, what caused me to stay as long as I did was the friends and community. This game has that going for it too
While I did take a break over the holidays, I was back in the game by February and have been enjoying my time spent here. As Freelancer said, this game has a lot of the elements I missed from my EQ days and it keeps drawing me back. I have the feeling I'm going to be here awhile
