I'm playing FFXI currently and i've got to say WoW is nothing compared to this game.First,there's the community with alot of party based leveling.And not only that,the community is the most ownage possible.Very kind,the linkshell i'm in constantly helps me,unknown people will give you stuff if you are a begginer,they'll help you get to Jeuno,they'll help you with equips,hints...by far the best community in a mmorpg.

WoW community..Er,right you keep giving me reasons the community "rocks".No,Raids do NOT count as community factor in this case.Did you ask someone for hints or even,heck stuff in WoW and got an answer that wasn't "STFU NOOB!"?Well,i have in FFXI to a random person and he smiled and hooked me up on hints.When i asked him for 4k,he gladly gave it away.

The gameplay mechanics are much better with actual factors that influence your damage such as weather,current day,weakness to a certain job/weapon and skills such as parry,evade,dodge,block,counter and even random hits that influence your damage such as 2x attack or a kick if your a MNK.Does WoW have all that?I think not.

Plus,FFXI has that "classy" factor with the noble knights,the apparently cute but with other plans Taru Tarus and the wizbiz Bastokians.

Now,it all depends on servers.I was on Titan previously and it wasn't bad but Fenrir is much,much better.

PS: Does WoW have freaking Chocobo raising?I ****ing think not.

People who think FFXI sucks are probably the lazy "I wanna kill this mob with flashy skills in 10 seconds" person.It's more than mindlessly spamming skills-It's all about teamwork.That's why people use Skillchains.Yes,it's confusing.Yes,it's hard.Heck,yes it's strange but it's a breath mint of fresh air!In what other game can you go Dragoon/White Mage and make your little dragon,the wyvern,heal you with an Healing Breath?

PSS:You don't fall asleep in a party!It's not just stand and watch.I,on the other hand,tried WoW and i was so bored at the generic grind quests,the battle system and battle sounds/skills.
