hehe yea everyone leaving FFXI... This game just makes ffxi so lame when you look at it. I was a 75 pld on valefore, sold my char like 5 months ago and the game was getting unbareable then.. I can only imagine what people are going through in vana diel now... LFG for 47 hours, then get in a party without a bard/rdm/whm and spend another 52 hours looking for one, then take 2 hrs to travel to a camp, some1 dies, group disbands... start all over again... Anyway, WoW is much more 'people friends' and 'no group friendly' which is a HUGE plus over ffxi.. And i like the post above mine, your not a newbie if the game hasnt even been released yet man...
