Just a post to let my friends know I will be playing FFXIV on Durandal. I have not decided to quit FFXI yet because I still have a few game goals I would like to accomplish.
I already have a character named Kimber Boh which I played in V.1 for a while. I just couldn't stick with it because the User Interface was aweful(I think a highschool student could have done better) and the lag was terrible. I have since upgraded my computer and played the beta. I like what I see so far, the things I don't like are very minor. I love the crafting system and will probably spend a lot of my time crafting. So if you hate crafting you should look me up as I get higher levels.
I already have a linkshell from Version 1 (Scions of Shannara) but am apparently now the leader because the leader's char was deleted. I will probably just use that linkshell as my starter/social linkshell if anyone I already know is interested in joining me.
