Well the idea is pretty sweet. Most just like the usual RP games but this online thing looks very nice and it works.
There has also been some angry mobs yelling about it having a monthly fee, wich lowers the interest
But the game offers alot of new detailed things and here are some of them in a nutshell:
# In-depth character creation - Choose a race and clan before going on to customize your avatar's face, hairstyle, skin color and more, with subtle adjustments allowing for limitless possibilities.
# The Armoury - With defining emphasis on the game's weapons and tools, the Armoury is a unique class system that influences both character development and an individual's style of play. With it, players have the flexibility and freedom to fight, craft and gather whenever and however they so choose. Simply equipping an item will automatically cause the character to take on the class associated with it.
# Aetheryte transportation - Traverse the realm of Eorzea instantly using this seemingly supernatural teleportation system.
# Solo or Party play - Adventure alone or in the company of others as you undertake quests and engage in battles on your travels through Eorzea.
I suggest Bahamut, that you try to read forums and see if the games lifespan will last long enough. I hate buying a game that everyone plays and then suddenly...the whole game is dead!
