Loot

FFXI is online, this isnt

I personally think they should have just called it Final Fantasy Online or something, rather than 11...It's not the same as the single player console series, although FFXII has heavy influences from it. When playing FFXII I feel like I'm playing Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic :P

regardless of your own personal requirements for what makes a game part of this series, Final Fantasy XI IS a part of this series, and the idea of collecting loot to get items that you can sell comes from that. also the items you mix to form better items comes from FFXI's crafting system, using 3 or 4 useless items such as leather skins or iron ore to craft a weapon or armour or whatever else.

a lot of FFXII takes ideas from FFXI and applies them to a single player universe. you can't just write FFXI off if the single player games are following in its traditions.

Woah calm down. Sorry if I offended your love child FFXI geez...

I never EVER wrote FFXI off, I've played the game thanks, a lot, so dont go around telling me what it is as though I'm a clueless piece of dirt you wiped off your shoe. All I said is that I dont think it should be in a series of games that are all single player, simply because it doesnt make much sense.

I'm not saying that I wouldnt want FFXI to be made, of course I would! It's a great game and in my opinion is the best in that particular genre which is now overshadowed by the mainstream popularity of WoW...

Dont worry, I'll keep my opinions to myself in the future, I mistakingly assumed this was a forum where each person can have their own thoughts and views without being TOLD what to think or do.

don't take everything so personally. you're free to voice your opinion all day, and i'm free to disagree with it.you said FFXI should be separate from the series, i gave you reasons why it shouldn't. no forum users were harmed in the discussing of this item. i wasn't trying to imply you don't know anything, i was just stating reasons why FFXI does belong in the series.

Err no...I said my personal views. You stated things as though they were fact, when actually they are just your opinion. I never stated anything, merely said what I felt, wheras you told me things which you believe to be true but might not be. Thats the difference.

Anyway I'll go.
