well heres the thing, I have played both game and found World of Warcraft to be the better of the two by far.
In Final Fantasy XI my first visit to windy I did a /shout saying: Could someone please tell me where the Sandy Consult was. I got no reply so I shouted it again and this time I got a reply saying:
Him: I know where it is
Me: could you tell me please
Him: go look for it yourself
obviously this smeged me right off but I didnt respond to his childish ways... this was just one of many things that irritated me. Another thing was I (a WHM/BLM) got a party in the Valkurm Dunes (normally a fun experence for WHM cause I get to learn my skills properly) and the leader was a DRK/WAR and after inviteing me and a friend into the party (a NIN/WAR) he then preceded to say "I am going to tank ok" at which point I told him that he didnt stand much of a chance as a tank as DRK are DD's not tanks and he said if you dont like it then tough at which point I was getting very smegged off so away we went and the first thing we pull was a a VT fly and the DRK did voke and then precedded to get beaten to a pulp (but not dead) and I ended up useing up all my mp so I sit down and use a cookie at which point the RNG goes and pulls again - at the DRK's instruction and me with about 10-15% mp I said no dont... but at that point it was far to late RNG brins in another fly and the party ends up wiped out... and all this I could have delt with but then that idiot then decides to blame me.... big mistake I told him the error of his ways and told him (and everyone else at Valkurm what a complete noob he was (and everyone in the party left him and we made a new party that had no problem fighting what-so-ever.
The situation I have discribed to you is just one of many many things I had to deal with when playing Final Fantasy XI, nothing like this has ever happened to me whilest playing wow and just before I took a break from wow I got a PUG to the Molten Core and tbh it was one of the best groups iv ever been in, we even managed to take down Ragnaros (or whatever his name was) to which I got a pair of t2 legs... if you ask me to many people are way to elitest in FFXI with World of Warcraft I had a much better experence not only because of the excelent UI which is fully customiseable with mods but has a great community, no one has ever told me what I should have equiped and I have never had any trouble getting a party to an Instance infact on the second day of my playing I had a Warrior take me all the way though the Deadmines and allowed me to keep everything we found.
just incase you havnt got what iv been saying
World of warcraft Owns!!!
