I'll tell you how much I like this game. When it came out, I seriously wanted to play. Multiplayer Final Fantasy was a dream of mine for a long time before this game. What would not be fun about being ONE person in a party and having real people control the others?

In order to play, I had to buy a computer; that's right, I bought a computer completely for the drive to play FFXI. New graphics card, monthly bill, you name it. Quite a hefty sum and a pretty rash thing to do, I admit.

As it turned out, this game is the zenith of all that is FF. I could not be more happy with the way it is played. The highest level character I have is 25 RDM and just two days ago I was invited to my first decent LS. I have been playing for almost 2 months and I haven't even scratched the surface. This makes me happy.

The music, battle style, dialogue, story, everything is very true to the Final Fantasy way. In this game, you get out what you put in. It actually moved me to defeat the Black Dragon for the first time with a group of friends that were there beside me only for the sole purpose of helping me along. This accomplishment alone will be enough for me to shove that much more effort into my character.

11/10 for enjoyment. And now, I'm out of e-breath so I'm done.
