Is this FF even worth it?

Its up to you, DoAC is full of PKing while FFXI to me is cooperative work and alot of time spent. Its not easy to get the things you need and its a BIG accomplishment to get a spell sometimes. Its really up to you.

As for DAOC is "full of Pking" Wrong. Unless you join a PVP server. The only time you will ever get PKed is if you teleport into a BATTLEGROUND (where your purposely go to fight other players) or the FRONTIER (which only lvl 50s go to to PVP). So you dont just walk around and get PKed. Its not a UO.

Yeah i have played mmorpgs before, im playing Dark Age Of Camelot, for about a year now, still only level 38 its a LONG game with ALOT of gameplay

Im not too sure i want to take the gamble with ff11 though....

a year of playing and only lvl 38? Wow. I got a 50 Chanter in 15 days (not days played, real time.) in half a month.

And BTW, you do know that FFXI will have PVP implemented into correct? They are working on it.

You need to invest alot of time in this game to accomplish things, and also keep in consideration that theres other people behind those character models. If you like EverQuest and Ragnarok Online, you will definetly like this game, and its the BEST MMO up to date.

And yes Omecle is right, only you can see if this is worth it.

You cant really say its the BEST MMORPG. DAOC still has alot more members. Many many many people like myself, think the game is kind of boring for a MMORPG. Ive gone through about 5 so far, and DAOC comes out on the top of my list clearly. EQ was better than FFXI I'd say. EQ even has better battle system I'd say (due to it being fast paced and having alot more spells, compared to FFXI which battles are slow.) and a much better market. I liked the market place, but I did not like that there were so few items! So yeah, you can't really say that FFXI is the BEST mmorpg out there, when it doesnt have the pure numbers and support of many players. It draws many people to it, but its not holding as many as other games.
