Welcome Technyze.

I too am old FFXI player (tho I played EQ1 before XI). FFXI really did have a lot of the hardcore elements of EQ1 (I'd honestly say it was more hardcore in every aspect up until mid-CoP where it started to soften a bit around the edges). TOAU was the best expansion for any video game ever though.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.

I liked TOAU a lot too, I think CoP was better tho. Sea was just so amazing to me for some reason. Glad to see some FFXI players around here to relate too!

Sea was pretty fantastic as a zone and the pure challenge of doing CoP storyline before it was made into pansy mode was super fun. However, from a content standpoint TOAU added great accessibility for smaller groups of people without compromising difficulty and a bunch of awesome zones to level/merit in 60+.

I'd like to be able to try FFXI again sometime, but only in it's prime.

Out of curiosity, did anyone else play on the Ragnarok server with the importer community before the North American release? There were some few hundred or so importers on that server after the Japanese launch but I can't remember the name of the major LS. Mostly organized over at ffxionline.com. Registering my Playonline account with a fake japanese address and name was pretty fun. Good times, good times.
