    Ahh the old Back to the Future newspaper screencap I think Queen Diana has a better chance of being true than the cubs prediction :P

    Just man up through the onslaught of /emote quests in the beginning. It gets a bit better :P For me it was 23$ well spent. I enjoyed leveling up and seeing the beautiful FF environments. I forgive some of the shittier elements because it's a Final Fantasy setting, your mileage may vary...

    I wouldn't :P But speaking of, anyone know the last 'free' date for those of us non legacy folks who bought and played right at release?

    I wonder if they'll ever put in faction transfers. When I created my TR around release time, we were the under-populated faction at that time. Now we're usually super overpopulated. I'd love to help the underdog (plus more targets = more exp!) but really REALLY don't feel like spending...

    With language like that it's an obvious troll, complete with a wow reference in the next post, but hey you got me :P Forcing people to farm grey con mobs just so they can run dungeons encourages bot behavior. I *could* use botany and harvest 100 items that sell for 1gil each (teleport bots...

    What can you do at 50 to make gil besides levequests? I think it's a bit silly how much everything costs, repairs just for casting, etc. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for challenge. I LOVE challenge, but in games I HATE inconvenience. And this game has it in spades.

    Yep. For me nothing drains the will to sub more than a complete lack of support. You report the same teleport gathering bot, nothing. No fixes for the gold spam as always. Just thanks for the money, now go away. I'm not expecting EQ1 Stormhammer(was that the premium server back in the...

    Yup, it's terrible. And from the back you can't accurately judge age (or sometimes sex[See:Any Fedor post]). My daughter is only 7, but our one clothing rules are no yoga, torn, midriff clothes, and NO WORDS ON THE BUTT (Looking at YOU "JUICY"). I see words on clothes I have to read them...

    I had to start mumble first, then log in to FF. And what IS that gif from? Too funny. I wonder how much the game will decline once the included month is up for non-legacy folks. Is there enough to warrant a sub for a majority of us playing now?

    Any kid who was old enough to watch TV in like 1982 watched this! Holy hell I forgot how long the intro was. I uploaded this to TvTorrents.com and it gave me so many credits, it was popular for some reason.

    And you thought SE White-knights were only on the official forums. Let them defend away! Don't get me wrong, I'm all for difficult leveling, but don't use shitty mechanics that encourage RMT bot abuse. If you have 3 tradeskills to 50 and zero issues with shards, then you probably bought...

    While I am having fun, and really love the world (especially day/night weather cycle, really makes it feel alive) there are some absolutely dumb mechanics that should not have made it off the drawing board: 1) Crafting requires a stupid amount of shards. Like even for 30 minute food. Also...

    What's hilarious is how long the CC was out of control. They never could fix it right. Don't even get me started with that lava zone and Ironbreakers :P Knockdown--->Aim--->Punt into lava, repeat. Fun for one side at least =D Order was OP for a while, I ended up being friends with a lot...

    Hey we heard you leveled up Botany to help your weaving leveling! Oh sorry about that, every other 10 levels you're gonna need to farm an item that only 6 spawn points exist server wide. Enjoy! I figured they couldn't get rid of gold spam bots, so I set up a shiatty keyboard macro to farm...

    I'm well aware of the barren lack of content at 50, which is why I'm purposely being a casual poop-socker. I did do 20 minutes of FATE grinding, but left when the min-maxxers bitched at someone for handing in items towards they objective... DONT MESS WITH OUR FARM MAN, WE'LL REPORT U FOR...

    I thought you hit 50 in everything and unlocked every achievement and don't play anymore? How much time a day are you able to spend in these games? I'm not picking on you by any means. My playtime has been cut wayback with 2 kids and a full time job. But in the early EQ years I had a ton...

    Nope, they're pretty silent about it so far. Hence me taking my time leveling to 50 (currently about 33 Weav/Botn/Summoner). Brought to you by the same brains that decided to allow gold spam, NOT allow right click blacklists from said spammers, and lacking an afk timer on once overcrowded...

    How are you level 50 people finding the repair bills? There's a huge thread on the lack of ways to *generate* gil (not earn via market). I agree with the OP, but the white knight/fanboi posts coupled with the idiots makes this thread one of the most painful to read ones I've seen...

    Yea shards will definitely get you. Be sure to do all the tradeskill level 1 and 5 quests, I think those still give like 100 crystals. I blow through lightning shards, and it's boring as hell gathering them (I can't afford to buy em QQ).

    How the fuck can you release an MMO these days without a built in gold spam filter. One bot is spamming /shout every 0.5 seconds with this huge 6 line macro. They don't even blockwww.goldor whatever. Amazing. It's annoying having to cut/paste and blist. Should at the minimum be able to...

    So what's with the cash flow in game? Sure I can make money selling to suckers on the marketplace, but it feels like there's more $$$ leaving the server (market fees, transport/repair costs) than is coming in. I mean I'm killing stuff in my 30s and it drops 2 gil. Just fighting that one mob...

    THIS! I have a few on my G19 keyboard. *never* use the quick synthesis auto-craft thing, you get next to no exp and still fail sometimes, it's funny. Instead I use a crappy G19 macro I threw together, repeats automatically. Use the ability to increase success by 90%, it'll take chance...

    I remember soloing those guards at the BB docks. Good exp and loots! It also took me 44 levels to figure out that I could outrun NPCs by strafe running. Talk about a lot of needless deaths before that!

    Minor quibble, but the 3102 error is still around somewhat. I finally got in a group for one of the many main storyline group dungeon quests, and promptly lost internet for 6 seconds. I then battled the 3102 'character still in game' error for almost half an hour. Maybe when they put in an...

    My internet seems to hiccup a few times a week. I previously didn't mind it. It is now rage inducing as I am once again locked out of the game. I did get worried when I got the infamous 'you still have a character in game, you cannot log in kekeke', but that fixed itself into a World Full...

    We do it for you: Misery! No but it's a fun game when you can get in, and weekends are typical good MMO time, especially the rare-spawn "Long Weekend". Now I'm getting 1017'd before even picking a world, they've caught on to my shenanigans! /jk
