    World of Warcraft is a lot more linear, and easier to fly through. I don’t know about Final Fantasy X, my Playstation busted up before I got a chance to try it out.

    But I enjoy Warcraft for the sheer fact that you can do what you want. However, looking around and seeing half the population being level sixty (the level cap) is somewhat discouraging. Mainly, because being the best is not hard to get to, and being the best is not uncommon. My two gold pieces.

    I personally think that as long as its an MMO there will be hackers. >> FFXI is primarily server side and theres still crap about it by cheaters...same for WoW i would believe. To think theres no hackers is quite folly imo.

    OP: Thanks, Omecle made it for me. ^^ I love the games...played all but the volleyball one...its forever my favorite game...theres just something about it that keeps me loving it again and again. Klo represent <3

    I would rather play FFXI. The WoW art just annoys me. One of the reasons I play Guild Wars is because it's gorgeous.

    I own both. I don't like FF11, it's hard to lvl, The changing of jobs bugs me, the community is rude, and you can't hop around. WoW is a lot easier and a lot more friendly peopl. Also a lot more people to call you a noob but there's the Jump button(if you can't tell already i'm a hopin' alliance character)

    WoW all the way.

    I won't pull the old "appeal to majority" card, but yeah, I don't think that comment stands up to scrutiny.

    That's exactly the opposite what I hear from almost everyone, even WoW players. A majority of my friends play WoW, and every one of them agrees that the player base is full of dicks, idiots, and otherwise incapable people--moreso than other games, anyway. They play the game because they enjoy it and have their own group of friends to play with. They've admitted they wouldn't enjoy it if they couldn't play with people they know. My favorite thing about Final Fantasy XI is that I don't have to do everything exclusively with my close group of friends.

    The only problem I see with Final Fantasy XI's community is that it's very elitist. Most experienced players don't have the patience for newbies, and they don't go out of their way to help anyone. I don't see very many people being rude to others, but that doesn't mean they aren't out there. They're in every game; some just have more than others.

    Honestly, that's not the same as my experience. I met a handful of nice people playing FFXI, and was in a couple of decent Linkshells, but overall I found the players to be impatient and elitist. (And I don't blame them, it can take an hour to get a party together for basic grinding, if you do that and someone has to go after two fights I'd be pissed as well.) WoW players are arrogant and care about e-peens, but I've found it a lot easier to actually get into a good guild there. I've been in more good than bad.

    Really though, it's a question of personal preference in gameplay. I like WoW a huge amount more than any other MMO; only EVE Online and City of Heroes have ever taken time away from WoW for me. FFXI was fun to begin with, but I just couldn't handle the complete and utter dependance on other players which the game, at least in my experience, entailed - I commonly heard reports of people at higher levels who were magic classes being killed in a fight with an enemy "Too weak to yield experience" or whatever it is it says. I like to party, but I want the option of not doing so, which most MMOs that aren't FFXI offer to a much greater degree than FF.

    That said, FFXI has a couple of things I really like about it. Crafting is more fun there for the most part, for example (WoW's is still nice, though) and owning a house is pretty cool. The fact there is a storyline, told through cutscenes, is pretty cool as well - WoW's storyline to date has largely consisted of taking a gigantic dump over the earlier Warcraft lore. And when you do get a really great FFXI party together - which I can only genuinely remember occuring once - it's something special. We breezed through absolutely everything with bugger all downtime (<333 bards) and it was swish.
