Honestly every game that comes out these days seems to be held up to some imagined status of "wow-killer".
And when wow doesnt just drop dead out of exposure to the sheer awsomeness of the newest mmo ppl get their nickers in a twist.
I personally came into this mmo without any nostagalia (cept for maybe uo...) and have played it like it was the first game in its series, which by design seems to be how the ff series runs. Im not hopeing its some kind of new and improved rehash of its predicessor nore am I going to sugar coat this as some ffx fanboys would.

- The Good (positives)
- It makes me think, And that is more than most mmos can clam.
- It eliminates the need to alt, which can be very nice when dealing with space issues.
- It forces people to do things that in other mmos have lost their relevance, such as walking, Nowadays its boom hit one button and your somewhere else. God forbid someone makes your pixilated character actually walk to where hes going. and what did it cost you? the energy to hold down a key, my the trials are heavy..
- Crafting plays a major role in day to day activities, which is how is should be imo, enough with pulling the giant sword of pwnage out of the ass of that tiny little rat.
- Its some of the most fun ive had in a Mmorpg in a very long time.[/list:u]
- The Bad (negatives)
- The repair system, dear god..., I get the need for a touch of realism but comeon, my hatchet irl doesnt wear down or break after 3 trees, why should my ig hatchet? etc.
- The lag, I know some of it is my comp, but dear jeasus not even crysis lagged this bad, LL is totally off limits for me.
- That little hiccup you get when someone runs into you... ppl do it on purpose and they need to Die a very painful and horrifing death O,..,O[/list:u]
- The Not-So-Ugly (thoughts, hopes, neutrality, etc.)
- Player houseing i can decorate and hopefully customize the actuall structure ( you UO players know exactally what I mean).
- Maybe somemore variation in weapon and armor skins? I figure they will ad more as content comes out tho..
- More character customizeations please... im tired of seeing the group of 20 ppl and only 3 look different...[/list:u]
