When it comes down to it, it's either you like MMORPG's or you don't. If you don't, have no fear, FFX-2 and FFXII won't take long to come out.

Personaly, from what I have seen and heard from friends in the beta, this game looks great! The fees aren't much at all for me seeing as I have a part time job now.

You can't really judge it before you try it, that's what I always say. I mean if you still can't afford the game (the game itself, monthly fees, the PS2 HDD, or you've got a crappy computer) then of coarse you can't really try it, but that's no reason to diss the whole game all together. BTW. I'm not pointing this at anyone, just a generalisation.
