Yeah, I like that voice more. Of course Brotherhood is 10x better but it's just weird with all the replaced voices. Mustang's is the only one I dislike though.

I haven't seen it in so long I can't accurately comment on it. There was a few things about the other show I liked more, but just overall brotherhood is a lot better.

I can't say i miss the 75 cap days.. Leveling was a horror, and unless you were in a big elite linkshell you were doomed to never g get anything that had great value. (Unless you were filthy rich, of course)
Weirdly enough, I enjoyed the heck out of Abyssea and when i finally understood Voidwatch, it was just simply frustrating but nonetheless fun.
However, 75 cap days definitely was the most bond-filled era. Because you had to dedicate entire days, weeks, months, even years to complete tasks, or goals.

yeah, honestly never got into abyssea really, I've been in there, but very little, don't even do my leveling in there.
edit: don't even know how to properly key.

I think the beginning was better in the original but towards the middle Brotherhood won.

worst part of it for me was always waiting for 17 other people to arrive and be ready to do things in addition to those 17 other people being good enough to not jeopardize the event. that's why I like the 6-man centric gameplay of modern XI; less reliance on other people for scheduling and success. removes negative variables.

edit: don't even know how to properly key. It was a really good way to level, that's for sure. Only thing that was bad about it, is it really killed it for new players. It made it so people came in, got to level 75 in like two days, and had no idea what to do with their jobs, how to gear, or properly utilize their abilities, so we had a bunch of ding-dongs running around.
I definitely think they should have safe-guarded that initial experience of the game of leveling through parties in starter areas by making some sort of requirements besides a level 30 cap to entire and participate in it.

I liked some of the side stories that they just cut out of brotherhood, but still made reference to, sorta.

Almost nobody that I used to play with plays anymore. Haven't ran into a single old face either. It's strange, but at least there's no rush to catch up.

That's part of the reason my return only lasted a couple of days. It's really sad when you come back to see that everyone you had known is gone.

14 more days until my month is up and I started from scratch. Just going at my own pace, got to lvl 60 so far, doing g3 right now and thf af knife and head done. Made almost 3 mil gil too.
I still find it fun though, only met one new person so far. Got to remember to grab an LS next time I run into them.

Yeah, I guess it would have made me feel better if I had kept in contact, instead of losing them to the world.

It's a very good moment to see what one is made of; seeing what they decide to do when faced with that situation. That's true. I think if my situation had been the same as it was when I was a devoted player, I would have rebuilt.

I resub to xi every so often to see if it's worth it, then usually figure out by the first 2 hours it's not and ... yeah :/
My problem was the lack of help, I think if I had more friends to play with that would ... (at this point carry me ... ) to at least a viable not suck point ... I would be happy.

The only person I used to play that still plays is... hmmm it's nice to see him as #1 on the server now, lol. I remember him trying to climb Nyzul Isle back in the day.

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
