Somebody in an IRC room I frequent asked me a question a few minutes ago: "Is FFXI any good? Should I play it?" This person's only real experience with MMOGs is a few months spent in WoW. I'm curious what the experienced, hardcore, sometimes jaded FFXI'ers that hang out here would have to say about this:
Was the fun you had way back when you started playing this game worth it? If you knew back then what you know about the game now, would you have still played, or would you have passed it over for something else?
The logical next question after the first would be: Knowing what you know now, do you still see yourself playing FFXI a year from now?
