    "whoever" : [ Yes, Please]

    You have been invited to a party.

    GOTdang! i miss FFXI i miss it sooo much i just wanna share my opinion why ffxi was great to me SE werent making a quick buck they were going for long term so if you played ffxi i may of been rough at times but when you Finally got what you were after or completed that mission man it felt so great.....these other games were made to make a quick buck

  • Going to be starting new FFXI characters from scratch with a friend of mine, if anyones interested in joining us let me know, anyone is welcome just send me a message. :)

  • @roberthenrybamber123  True Strike

  • I miss this game so bad... its like Crack its a boring game but its Soooooo addictive

  • I feel you Toaster, I haven't found anything to fill void after quitting XI.

  • I just quit the game a few moths ago. It just wasn't the same anymore, everyone is just doing Abbysea now. I miss it so much though, and so far i haven't found an mmo that compares to it. Flimgpoo: Shiva server.

  • If anyone is thinking of joining this game, come to Ragnarok and look me up, Dolphis. I can hook you up with some cool stuff :D

  • ok i found the song its called Polovtsian Dances And Chorus - Naoto Suzuki feat. Martha

  • the song in another version of the song prince igor

  • Best game I've ever played. The memories of that time will always fill me with nostalgic joy :D

  • I remember waiting in jeuno

    and time sinks

    and good music, no memories for that terrible game design though. static, easy, timesink

  • best mmo ever i miss my time, had to quit was affecting my marrage><

    Bendrick, Fairy server main DRK

  • Turning japanese i think im turning japanese i really think so.

  • is this song from the anime Rah Xephon?

  • @Lolz2770 Yes, kind of... It's a different version sung by a different person. Still equally good in its own right.

  • @Lolz2770

    Konami's game "OverZenith(JPN)/Sword of Etheria (Europe)" odd enough it was never released in the U.S.A.

    Good game, even.

  • Awesome video for an awesome MMORPG. To bad couldn't keep me entertained like it had for so many years. Dec 7th 2003 -> Oct 31st 2010.

  • where could I get the song? :D

  • sweet video!!!!

  • Every MMO I play now gets compared to this one; and none of them can do it for me like FFXI did. Miss this game so much.

  • Comment removed

  • i remember leveling up in the dunes seemed like for ever and how excited i was when i finally got high enough lvl to make that run to jueno good times :)

  • @hardheaded409 "ooo whats this big fish doing here, I should attack it now! Oh wait we are only lv10?" Oh always keeps ya on your toes in the random gob attacks.

  • @GuardianMio lol worst thing ever your fighting a gob and all of a sudden somebody comes running through your camp trying to get the gob off of them and they get killed now ur running for your life trying to zone so you don't get wiped out by the two gobs that are now having their way with youlol

  • I wish FFXI was still like this :( For w/e reason when the level caps were raised I lost my motivation to play. I'll always remember this game though.

  • amazing game... most memorable times for me were fishing up devil mantas for angel skin in kuftal tunnel. dunno why but i did it so much that it just became one of those things that ill never forget, for everyone who played ffxi with me i hope to see you all in xiv, the community is what made ffxi the best gaming experience ever and i hope to have that same in 14, nice video btw :D

  • I miss this game. It's been about two years since I quit. Since then,I've picked up other MMO's and tried playing them,but always compared them to FFXI. I miss the immersion of Vana'diel. The community was always helpful. There were friends I made there that were just some of the most amazing people. I'll never forget the hours I spent playing FFXI. It is one of the most memorable games I've played,and while writing this comment,tears were coming to my eyes. It's just.. Such an amazing game.

  • what songs are in this vid?

  • Watchin this makes me want to come back lol

  • Remember to get armor for leaders, have fun on endgame.

  • i play ff11 and have played for years, its weird dropping my character to join 14. I get to keep my mithra, so thats good, but man.. so much effort put into my character. not an ounce of regret though, i enjoyed every bit of it. Here's to hoping ff14 is just as good if not better

  • After watchin this again, I'm starting to remember some of the names in this Video. Cruia - PLD, Bigrougabagel - NIN, Raevenx - WAR, Yamiriku - DRK and myself Demonsamurai - SAM

  • i put way to much time into this game, but it was the shit

  • me too

  • Start out with six jobs Warrior Red Mage White Mage Black Mage Monk and Thief Unlockable jobs are Blue mage Scholar Dancer Dark Knight Corsair Puppet Master Beast Master Summoner Samurai Ninja Paladin Dragoon Ranger and Bard and to answer the how is the leveling easier they gave us Fields of Valor that gives you additional points along with your normal points and extra cash upon finishing the book . Soloing is a lot easier now .

  • thank you what are some of the new jobs and how is levling wasier thank you

  • this is my problem im getting back into mmorpg games and i cant decide wow or this i think wow is good but i like the gameplay and this has better but less people someone help me!

  • if ur thinking of comming back into ff11 now is a good time i think. The game is alot better now than it used to be. Lotsa new job upgrades and stuff that makes lvlin easier.

  • i think i have seen u ^_^ next time i get on ill look for u

  • im actually on leviathin right now my name is Dolphis im still kinda new but my linkshell got me through most of the crap i couldnt do on my own.

    and ive only talked to cruia once. ^_^

  • O: i think ive seen you on leviathan! ahah

    im from that server too! im that Mithra named Knightkat xD i dunno if you've seen me tho aha :)

  • Man I can't believe I forgot about this video. I miss playing FFXI sometimes and I will be going to FFXIV. I was on Leviathan with Cruia...and yes that is me, Elvaan sam at 1:40 of the video...full af2, but no amano lol.

  • this video shows a pld and a nin fight together... tanking rivals XD not gonna happen

  • I was like WTF? My name was Cruia on Ragnarok I think? It's been years since I played, I was a RDM =]

  • WHÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ : _((((( why you all Leave...Why WHy WHYYYYY....FFXi so nice game.....All day players leftr and no players left for party..Servers are LOOOW.....MAN PLS DONT START WoW....!!!

    Whäääääää : _ ((((( ...my first play was with 11 years....i like it but my Parents dont let me play..Now iam until 17 and ALL LEAVE FFXI.....MAN PLS stay!!!! : _((((( or play FFXIV WHÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄHH : ____(((

  • I can't wait for FFXIV! I just hope all of my friends swich over ; ; Awesome video, btw^^ Ty for posting.

  • im hyped for 14 only game to do that in a long time. well looks like im gonna be trapped in that game too @_@

  • Also FFXI and FFXIV are alot allike they have the same races (different names though) and it may come out with alot of the jobs allready on the game so we don't have to buy a bunch of expansions. Also the graphics have improved considerably and although it's a new world and all it's still basically FFXI just... improved.... and yea so with the new FFXIV there will be a serious drop in the amount of people still playing FFXI... Though you probably allready know that but meh... xP

  • ff11 wont die... it mmight die down but wont die, its a great game, and i had some amazing friends on ff11

  • G'damn it. I had quit so i could focus on uni~ but now I have seen this I gotta re subscribe... thanks ALOT :/

    :P

    What should I resume training when I get back everyone? My Bard, My scholar or should I use my carbuncles ruby and start training up SMN?

  • brd for ivnites, sch for practicalness... they make a very good blm or a whm whenever you need one (small manning things they are great)

    smn is kinda lacking in the damage department, good for soloing things / some bcnms.

  • yeah shoutout59

    same with me man.. those were good days..

  • Will be intresting to try this game out.. always loved the FF games.. hope this one wont be a dissapointment. :P

  • not really considering its a completly different game lol ots of peple might not like lt though only time will tell

  • FFXIV has similarities to FFXI. FFXI is not really as hard as it use to be but it still takes crazy amounts of time. If you start playing now by the time you hit 75 and start getting gear FFXIV will be out lol

    now a days you need like 5-6 75s with decent gear to be even considered in a top linkshell unless you want to do sky with noobs and wait years in line for gear. unless you get lucky. then you have to get a top shell for landkings etc...

  • well what ever linkshel you where in the leadef must of been a complete dick end of there is no such thign as "Decent" Gear only preferred gear for your role with that job etc and if you dont peopel in linkshells and other members of the comunity will help im sure too many people on this game are like " noob gtfo " instead of helping each other =\

    and about similrites no matter how similar they are still not the same lol

  • lol i never said "noob gtfo" let me rephrase that. if you do a sky event or sea or hnm whatever with people who have never done it before or a lot of people who still need gear from the god/hnm/mob then you will be waiting for your gear for a long time.. I use to help newer players all the time but the armor progression rate was a lot slower than if you're in a more experienced shell. and "decent gear" just means better gear than AH bought gear. rare / ex / relic gear / god gear /landking etc

  • yup can't wait for FF14 i hope solo is easy i hate wait party but fun meeting new people though.

  • Actually I don't even like the cutscenes that much.. The most memorable moments for me were chilling in the huge areas with a few friends. Fighting in la thein plateau, the desert, aht urgan, promy runs lol... those were sweet

  • i made some amazing new friend that way. thats why i think ff11 will last a long time. it has an awesome community.

  • i think FFXI will last long too im sick of hearing " ohh FF 14 everyone will join" i mean FF14 inot a Seaquel its a completly differet game lo lots might not like like it ots might not wanna thorw away FFXI for another MMO but only time will tell :)

  • I just want to say that I don't believe everyone will switch to FF 14 and I don't think it'll be dead (even though my friend keeps saying it's gonna be) though alot of people will probably switch and a few servers will most likely die out cause nobody will be playing em especially the ones with small amounts of people, I doubt that many people will pay for both so yea FFXI will probably loose a considerable amount of people to the new FF online... Just saying...

  • @shutout59 Well if u play mmo's to chill with friends, then technically, any mmo will work for you :D

  • All I can say is..

    ..

    ...DAMN..

    great vid :)

  • Honestly, he made the game look a lot cooler than it really is. Great video but it leaves out the part about how it takes months and years of mind-numbing grinding to see some of those cutscenes... I still enjoyed FFXI for my stay of a couple years though.

  • Years o.o

    I don't remember it taking that long ._.

  • I played two years and never even got half way through CoP =/ It's just too much grinding and not enough action. Fun for a while until you're like... man, I just spent a whole week to get 5 levels for just ONE of my jobs.

  • Man. lol

    I'll admit it's extremely time consuming, but I tend to enjoy it more than other MMO's cause there is always something to do. Even at the later levels. =/

  • yeah its fun all around you just need to find your thing :)

    im only passed the Diabolos fight and ive been playing sinse the game came out and i finished the others expansions lol CoP was made for mind grinding i believe lol but the story line keeps you going and is a beautiful one as far as i can tell

  • I always found it hard to beat anything because it was hard to get people. Also for most things you have to compete with other people alot which gets annoying and leads to many hours wasted. I still like it 10X more than WoW though just because wow feels so childish. Its cartoony and the races are all really gay...

  • lol I like it's slow-paced gameplay. It's one of the slowest, most relaxing games I've ever played. Got it the day it came out. And it's still fun as hell today. ^_^

  • I'll be moving on to FF14!!!!?! yesssss

  • yeah u heard ff14 was guna be online...i wish i coulda got ff11...i played a bit cuz my sister had but im only 15 so i didnt have cash to keep it up plus i with school and stuff i wouldnt have time....=( i guess ill have to stick with runescape cuz wow is just annoying

  • ffXI is so great....but i hope i'll find a team soon, it takes longer and longer to level up each time *sigh*

  • Beautiful video ! Can't wait to play FFXI. Really excited about it. trying to patch the game now lol. taking forever

  • Love this video, just got RDM to 75 recently and have 75DRK and 75BLU. Crazy how this video brings back memorys. FFXI Forever!!!

  • im playing wow and it suckes i got an lvl 75 monk on ffxi much better

  • I miss this game.. a lot. Just can't bring myself to play it anymore tho. It's to time consuming and I don't have the time to give it.

  • same here, maybe after school is finished. lol imma sam. so i'm itchin to take on a demon nm again

  • awesome! i play SAM too, got it to 75 and lvled most of the sub jobs for it to 37. I was still working on a few but college didn't allow me to play much.

  • I am still playing this game even after 6 years, this game is very memorable, and not just that but it has one of if not the best storyline. I tried WoW and didn't care for it, it's too easy. But I'm not gonna hate on the game, but imo people who enjoy FFXI don't like WoW and vice versa. People will like what they like and thats just how it is.

  • Even though the game was a headache sometimes its still an amazing game in many aspects, I may come back someday, I quit cause of the lack of time, I just hope my character is still alive, cause I will not EVER start from the beginning....HELL NO lol

  • First saitoe503 FFXI was introduced 3 years befor WoW. And it was Number 1 Game for all three of those years. I have played 20+ MMO's and NONE were as memoriable as FFXI. WoW only took number one cause of its PVP witch wasn't big in the days of development when this game came out.

  • Someone is a child~ His name is saitoe503~

    L2accept people like ffxi, and move on with your life. Grow up and stop trying to start flame wars. Your only showing how childish people that play WoW are.

    So you don't like FFXI, no one really cares about you or your opinion. Hate to break it to you. Unlike what your parents prolly told you. The world doesn't revolve around you.

  • I need a cop static on Unicorn. couple of 75's to offer. any takers? 3-5 plus please.

  • I can honestly say this video encouraged me to go back to CoP's and finally finish my Zm's.....I got fed up with them but this video is epic, and ubelievable.

  • I remember gettinf rank 10 and sky/sea.. so much fun to me lol. I'm so comming back... remora here I come fasho lol

  • Awesome job.

  • lol @ HUGE spoilers at 0:54

  • awesome video i liked it great job man

  • Just wow u did an awesome job /pat on back ^^

  • no it wasnt but its way better then wow...

  • it was out before wow

  • it was out years before WoW

  • Comment removed

  • ffxi will still be the best mmorpg ever.. untill they make another one!

  • god i miss Vana'Diel, been too addicted to wow... but after hitting cap and all the glammer wearing off u find ur only playing to get epic gear... all that fucking work for a stupid piece of armor, no solid storeyline, no real point... just good pvp and crack like addiction... i want my elf back

    Muzuki-Shiva

  • great vid 10/10

  • Great video, very deep :)

  • man i miss the salvages i havent played in like 6 months and im a 65 rdm

  • Good Video ^^

    Well Done

  • great video

    I can't wait to rejoin ^_^ :) :D =) =D

    and all the other smile faces that can be typed

  • lol man i miss this game i want to go back but it seems like i wont fit back in... so much change...soo much time missed....T_T

  • dude dont worry come on back lol valefor server ill help u out i dont mind

  • how easy is it to get to max level now or is it an epic grind still?

  • well there is level sync which allows u to take the level of a party member lower than u and that occurs for all party members so in theory u culd lvl to 75 in the dunes no lol but ude get sucky skillups ummm its not really a grindfest anymore i mean its still timeconsuming but after ur first 75 after uve done the G quests its not that bad gettin a 75 anymore not like it used to be, any 75 after ur first is alot of fun to lvl

  • Ah, This song on DDR<3

    Anyway, I miss XI SO much<3 I can't believe that was 5 years ago, ah being 14 and staying up all night, and barely showering XD

    I still go on here and there, but community is pretty much dead (at least from what I saw) It's nothing like what it used to be.

  • i had a good experience with this game! It feels like I lived a whole other life looking back on it. Square Enix is working on a new mmo game.. i hope i have the time to play it!

  • hey what new mmo is square enix making im interested... lol..

  • hustle88, just google square enix rapture.. its top secret still and there is only a little info on it but people have been saying they will show it in the 2009 E3

  • le sigh i quit FFXI for over a year now i really miss it WoW endgame is so meh FFXI has a story to it ;;

  • Great Video! I love how you showed the jobs and the skills. ^▽^

  • I think the first part of the vid shouldve been Elvaan on Valor and hume on Koga cause in reality back then Elves on mythology are always knights and Ninjas are Humans wise

  • nice.

  • Fantastic video, great music! TLOH ^_^

  • =P nice

  • Nice editing man or woman. You should be doin video promoting for ffxi or sumthin.

  • Stunning video

  • is this game worth starting this late?

  • Of course. FFXI is always worth starting. I still hurt when I think of all the people I left behind when I was forced to leave....but I'll be back. Mark my words. Vana diel IS my home away from home.

  • you sound pretty into the game

  • Yeah, I am...well, was.

  • what server did u play? I was on Ifrit but switched to Pandy server.

  • I played on Shiva, from beginning to end.

  • ah.

  • what was your name on shiva because ive played on shiva for 4 years

  • Kensuke. I was part of DevilsMayCry, EishinRyuDojo, and....another one I can't remember.

  • no, he's right, though. it's never been too late to start playing FFXI. i remember i wondered the same thing about 4 years ago and i had a good time when i used to play it.

  • this game takes a lot of time out of your day. which is why so many people cant keep up. A lot of the content is endgame (atleast 1 level 75 job). Its fun, and way better than other mmos out.. its just the time commitment that makes it very difficult to keep playing.

  • woot wootw cant wait to start playing ffxi again, lol <3 Ganbaruzo, leviathan sevrer, Phoenixcovenant ls

  • dude, did leviathen REALLY have that many relic weapons back when this was posted? even if they didnt, nice vid

  • The Two BEST FFXI Vids I have ever seen!

  • Artist is Cruia who use to play on Leviathan and is on Bismark currently. BLM do use a lot of MP to cast spells but they have a natural trait called "Conserve MP". If you ever level BLM you will notice that most of the time your MP for spells will be cut greatly.

  • i hate being broke.... i wanna play again =P

  • WOOT!! Leviathan Server FTW!!!

    XD

  • who's the artist and what is the song title of the music? Nice vid

  • this was very well done as well! fantastic job keep it up

  • This video is awsome, it reminds me of the days when i was addicted... It was damn fun i gota say and i miss it

  • Love the song, hate the fact i didnt see thf's Relic WS ; ;

  • nice video brings back some good memories that unfortunately have faded away a long time ago.

  • wow awsum vid :) great song as well! this was the best 2 yrs spent on a game IMO for anyone wondering give the game a shot its worth it ^^b

    *R.I.P* Mushizo-Carbuncle

  • yeah...the game sucks ass to anyone thats a dick to other people. This game is based on people being able to work together and help each other. Anyone that thinks they can use people in this game and keep gear that's loaned to them, will think this game sucks. I personally think its the best game ever. For me and many others it become more than a game. Friendships and even relationships are made on here. I know 2 couples that met on here and got married in RL. Broly~caitsith server

  • ur the one that sucks ass(orc ass that is), Djcrappypants. I've played this game for over 2yrs now & it's more fun than having to deal w/ sorry low-lifes like u.

  • Excuse u? Ur nothing but a piece of crap that has nothing better to do than do respond the way u just started to respond. & as for the "n" word part, well, that just proves right there that ur 1 of the few neo-nazis pieces of shit still out there, trying to bully every1 else when losers like that have died out years ago.

  • your the fag why dont you do everyone a favor and blow your brains out

  • Every1 on here, just ignore DjPoopyPants187. They are nothing but an immature biggot racist, w/ no friends, or a life. Ppl who comment like the way "it"'s been commenting do not belong on YouTube & need to be kicked off.

  • because youtubing videos of stuff you hate + commenting as such is a good way to spend time right?

    get a life

  • the video its AWESOME MAN ,nobody never seen a guy caled zelpha on the final fantasy its me plz somebody that seen me

  • if it takes that long then ur not very good at it...-.-

  • it seriously took u a month to respond and thats all u have? lol....

  • hehe nah dont take that long just need to be able to have time
