Well it would have been nice for the FF fans who don't want to pay to have a no-online feature. The game could contain only the NPCs and the quests, and that would be great. Personally, I cant afford to buy a cable line for the game, and even if I already had cable I cant afford an EXTRA monthly fee to play. No, I'm not complaining, merely stating. I'm sure it's a great game, but a single player mode would have be nice for the poorer gamers and the people who dont want to be propsitioned for cyber while playing FF.
