So you're complaining that the entire point of FFXI is to waste loads of time in order to get loads of money which you use to spend more time to get more money? Geez, you might as well play that stupid game which revolves entirely around doing NOTHING, and just watching bars fill up. I can't remember the name of it now... But it would be a lot easier and cheaper.

I never once said that the entire point of it is to 'waste loads of time to get loads of money to spend more time to get more money'. I'm pretty sure you just said that. The point of FFXI is to have fun killing shit with a bunch of your friends, and having money to buy equipment that helps you perform your role in a party makes it more fun for everyone, because then you don't get bitched at for being a cheap bastard. The only things I complain about, particularly, are botters and gilsellers.

And I don't know, Impossible, but I'd say most RPGs revolve around the same kind of things FFXI does-- granted, there's not as much demand for cash and there's more story elements in non-MMO RPGs, but this is compensated for by the precense of other people and the fun with events, questing, and so on. I think it's pretty fun myself.

It's not my fault if many RPGs suck.

I don't recall blaming you or saying they sucked, either-- sorry you feel that way. I guess you shouldn't play them, since they suck.
