User Rating: 9.1 | Final Fantasy XI PC

Another Final Fantasy, another dream world -- only this time, you are in it. I know the above statement is true because the game's immersive size creates not an illusion, but a reality. Cloud moves above the sky, wind picks up leaves and dusts, NPCs ban on the hot iron, and wild beasts sneak up on you from behind. Switching to the first person mode in towns and see the world in what it should be, it's quite poetic. Many people complain about the control, which I do not understand. Must every game uses the so called standard control - mouse? The key board control gives you fast access that no action can't be performed within a second of time. The gameplay is so much fun if you are social and willing to talk and party with people. One of the funniest moment was when I opened my arm to receive a friend, only found a train of monsters following him. Instantly, lots of shouting involving "F" and "S" came, and everyone on screen started running in the same way. A giant race for life! On the other hand, if you are not social and don't like to party, you have no place in MMORPG. Why even bother to play the game? Not everyone like the look of a diamond, yet a diamond is still a pretty stone. The Playonline feature is great, not only you have a easy way of communicating your friends on and off the game, you can even exchange messages when you friends are playing the game while you are not. But the log in process of playing the game is too redundant, there should be a shortcut to start the game and automate all the password sign on process. Playing accross continent and platform is just cool. Fear not of talking to people from different country, for many understand and speak English just fine (including me).
