Jumping back in?

[Tauguy]

I havent played FFXI in around a year. My system is gone and my copy is gone.
Word of FFXI coming to 360 has reinterested me.
Is it worth it to jump back into FFXI or is everyone too high a level and my time wasted?

Re: Jumping back in?

People are always levelling low level jobs so don't worry about being a newbie, plus the 360 version will add tons of newbies too. But if you want to start playing again, think about why you quit in the first place and ask if it's really worth it. Things haven't magically gotten easy since a year ago.

Actually they have. >_>

EXP rings, less EXP to gain past 50, and less penalty to EXP when you die. Seeking is still pretty much the same, but really not as bad as it used to.

That is true...

But what Feenicks said is also wise! ^0^

i wouldnt say the games gotten esier, if anything harder... what makes the game hard is the economy and its pretty hard if you ask me... leveling up is np (^_^) all the xp rings do is provide slight compensation for the idiots you have to deal with while leveling

It isn't that frustrating know you don't have to repeat all the same quests in all the same towns you've already done them in five times already with other characters. You know that you're justing fighting and getting to know other people, and it can go really well or really bad. Really bad rarely happens though, even in the dunes.

i hate leveling pre-25... after is magical... jungles are a breeze, and you see every zone after that much less so its much fresher.. and since the parties are garunteed almost always to be a little better its not such a strain and it feels a lot smoother leveling and much more laid back... your actually not EXPECTING a link every pull or for the pullerto get aggro... unless its a really tight place >_+sucks when your in CN and you go WAY deep to get a crawler and one spawns on your way back to camp
