    I didn't join the beta and the NDA basically makes videos extremely rare. I was just hoping to see the differences in stance/posture/animation compared between races, especially on higher jobs...any suggestions?

    He's only alive because he ran out of mana casting Blink and Stoneskin, and never got on the mob's aggro list.

    All battle animations are the same--the differences are strictly emotes/standing etc iirc

    Thanks, Rocl, toward the end of my time in FFXI I wished I had picked another race due to the stance/animation...

    Pretty much the only reason I love standardized animations.

    I can't watch the video at work, what does it mean by it doesn't change? The VIT stat is the only one that really matters, and mage taru/mithra have 17, and melee galka have 23. So at max level is the difference going to be 6 VIT? Or will galka have a +18% VIT over the mage taru?

    The numerical difference at level one using same job but different race/clans is the exact sane numerical difference at 50 with no gear.

    Not gonna lie, it's kinda awesome that they pretty much said "well, XI did so much min/maxing, how about this time we go more aesthetic?".

    Ah the moment when you hit level cap and realized Galka's HP bonus scaled as you leveled.

    I think for the most part picking a character is more a aesthetic than anything else. Personally I am going to be a Lalafell BLM mainly because they will look great in end game gear and look cool cast meteor from such a small being.
