Hey guys, just wanted to say hello and introduce myself.
I'm new to FFXI and enjoying it so far, even though I haven't much of an idea of what to do.
Basically, my brother gave me this game somewhere around 2005 (It's on the xbox360 btw) and I never got to playing it.
Now I wanted to start playing it a bit, but I honestly have no idea what to do.
Thankfully I found a kind stranger who gave me the tip to get a Signet for crystals, and that I should go kill some monsters.
This is great and all, but after a while I'm starting to think I should be doing some more than just plain killing monsters
Anyway, to make this a bit of an actual introduction, here's some info about me;
Name: Gerald
IGN: Craften
Age: 21
Location: The Netherlands, South-Holland.
I have some questions about the game, and if anyone could answer these for me I would be pretty happy.
- What should I be doing in this game? I have found a ''tutorial quests'' npc near the Westgate of (I forgot the city I started in, the first one in the list...San D'oria?) and I've been doing those, but is that all I need to be doing right now?
- How do I make money, what do I need money for?
- Is there a social guild/linkshell(That's what it's called right) that would ''adopt'' me and guide me around a bit, or at least be there to have someone to talk to.
- What server is the most active? Is it feasible to stay on Sylph?
Thanks for some of the answers in advance, looking forward to becoming active in both this community and in FFXI!
Edit: Also, it turns out I'm an idiot for not seeing the ''New members posting'' thread. Sorry.
