I still think I would of ended up quitting FF over time. However if they had put in an english speaking server I am pretty sure It would of got a few more payments out of me. A big problem for me was feeling really isolated from the rest of the server cause only 20% spoke a word of english.

The game was still ungodly boring but it may of been just a bit more fun if there were more english speaking people floating around. I quit in my 20s so I never got to "high end" FF. However I am glad I didnt get caught in that trap cause I have sense heard horror stories about it. Camping like 16 hours for 1 part of your like "epic" armor? What a load of complete BS. Another thing is having to get large groups together to just go get a spell? Think Furor linked a site about this.

Sorry, I dont log on to a game to have to work my ass off. Just look at fishing in the game for crying out loud. Yes I would prefer to just click a button and have my toon cast into the water.... I dont really want to check to make sure the weather is right... its the right day and what spot the moon is in... Id go fishing in RL if I wanted to put that kinda effort in.

To each their own though. If you think spending 150+ hours doing a quest is awesome then more power to ya. I spent too much time on EQ as it is... Dont need a game that requires even more to get anywhere... You can keep FFXI
