  1. Gave me a nice chuckle. Both fun for different reasons that don't even involve BiS gear. With FFXIV, you min/max through the game combat rotations. With XI, you min/max through literally learning WTF a LUA is and that Notepad++ is a thing.

  2. I only played 14 briefly and was put off by the battle system early on. If I had given it more of a try I might have liked it. When FF7R announced no ATB battle system I was very concerned but I did like the end result, Not sure if I'd say I like 1 over the other more though, there both good, but Final Fantasy to me needs to be the more classic slower style, FF11 delivers this very well.

  3. yeah, the whole pianist combat and rapid gear cycle is why I never wanted to play FFXIV. I didn't think it would be bad, just I'd already had my fill of WoW. FFXI's combat suuucks for newbs, but once you get near endgame with a ninja, dancer, thf or run fencer with decent kit, when everything is going mach 3; is ten times more fun.

  4. This video would have been perfect if only the ending showed you casting 1 spell on a mob and swapping between 3 different sets of gear, rather than just using fast blade. Either way, made me laugh pretty hard

  5. Lol that is so on point. FFXI combat depends on how good you are at modifying Lua files with codes so your Character can automatically change gear depending on situations greatly improving your character's performance. FFXIV combat is way more complex than just pressing 1 2 3 lol but simple enough that you can take a break for a year and come back and not be completely lost on how to play your character's job.
