What system do you play or plan on playing FFXI on?
Re: What system do you play or plan on playing FFXI on?
I use PC with a PS2->USb adapter.
That means you're doing it wrong. No offense. Some people prefer the controller.
I was using a dual shock-style USB controler and I had to run the game 5+ times to get the buttons just like my PS2(uhh...testing 1-2-3 XD) but after that it worked great. You're right I can't stand using the KB to move and the mouse is worse! Yes I've use arrow keys and the various KB controls before...but I utterly hate the KB movement + Camera controls for FFXI PC.
FFXI was originally designed to map onto a PS2 controler and I think it works best that way(no offense)...but to use an old addage I know: "Everone to their own taste said Mother Murphy as she kissed a cow..."

One of the things I like the most about XI is that you don't need to use the mouse. I mean a mouse is great to have for FPS or RTS games, but for games like XI it just sucks.
A keyboard is way more efficient, and I wish more Online games with text msg support would go that way. That's one of the main reasons I got lazy about even trying to play WoW and one of the reasons why I was always annoyed while playing MxO and stuff, the mouse is just too slow, specially when you need to use menus.

I agree! I love being able to just use the keyboard and no mouse. It's always fun to see the look of wonder on my friend's faces as they see me flying through tons of menus without a hitch with just a keyboard hehe.
