Was in the last beta weekend. Game is looking surprisingly good. Going to mess around with it some more this weekend to get a better feel for it.

The crafting system is definitely the best I've seen in an mmo so far.

The crafting system is really off-putting at first. After games like Guild Wars 2 where you can craft shit tons of items in under a minute with just a couple of button presses, the crafting system feels clunky as hell.

And then you get the ability to increase quality. And suddenly it becomes a game of "how high can I get the quality on this ingot before I run out of durability to make it with" and making shit with +200% exp bonuses and occasionally a shield with 25% higher than normal stats.

It feels like they took EQ2's crafting after they revamped it around Kunark, and then streamlined it.

Being a fan of Final Fantasy I do intend on giving it a try. From what I understand one of the caster jobs gets a carbuncle pet, so I am down for that.

Though I have my doubts. I tried to play the other FF MMO once, and I died at the hands of a cute little bunny rabbit.

Are they gonna offer up one of those "free 7 day addiction tour" things? I didn't like 11 at all and everything has been a downhill slide since 10 (I beat 12 and 13, didn't get far in 13-2).

Look around for beta keys, they're being given away like candy lately.

Otherwise, sometime during August they're going to have an open beta which has no restrictions and characters played during that period will likely continue over to launch.

And this is essentially Final Fantasy meets WoW. They scrapped the majority of the old FF14 and completely overhauled it. Game is much more quest-based, though unlike most modern mmos, they have no problem forcing a series of group quests on you in the middle of the main story quest line.

Playing a Thaumaturge right now (think less focused Black Mage). I can take on a mob a couple levels higher than me without too much trouble. Game is very solo friendly, and all classes are able to solo.

So not like any of the other FF MMO attempts.
