Have you played one of the FF MMOs?

[Fynn]

I haven't played any MMOs. I suppose I'd enjoy playing them with friends, like with FFXIV with the Fat Chocobos. However, I don't really have time, or a great PC, to really play them properly or in earnest. They are a massive commitment, and some people rely on you to be active participants.

And the grinding. Ugh.

Exactement.

Plus, the subscription fees which MMOs can require are incredibly off-putting.

So you guys won't be joining when Ania and I will be hopping on board?

No. Sorry, Fynn.

Played XI awhile back but never got far into it. I recently acquired XIV by accident but I'm not really sure if I'm going to bother. I learned with XI, I just don't have the mentality for MMOs.

I played a little bit of XI at my cousin's house, but that's it. I have XIV on PS3, just haven't gotten around to playing it yet. Picking my spot since I want to make good use of that 30 day free trial.

I've played FFXIV, but I didn't enjoy it, probably because I'm not a fan of MMOs in general.

[Depression Moon]

I only played the XIV Realm Reborn beta. Thanks again for that EOFF.

I've played FFXIV and completed the first part of the story, but I stopped there. It's a good game but it requires too much time. There is SO much more content I would have to get through before Heavensward is even relevant to me.

[Del Murder]

I played FFXI for about 4 years, got to the max level (at the time) for two jobs and finished all the storylines, and did each of the end game activities at least once. It was tons of fun and I probably put more hours in that game than any other game. Once I felt like I didn't have much else to accomplish, I quit and only looked back a couple times (but not anymore). Since then they've raised the level cap and added a new expansion with two new jobs, but I haven't had a strong desire to go back to it.

I tried playing FFXIV when ARR came out and it was mildly enjoyable but I just didn't feel like starting over again with this and the game didn't really blow me away enough to keep me around. Plus there wasn't really a good way for my wife and I to play at the same time due to time & PC constraints, and us playing together were some of my fondest memories of FFXI (and why I got into it in the first place).
