GAME FEATURES
Final Fantasy XI, in addition to being an MMORPG, differs from previous titles in the series in several ways. Unlike the predefined main characters of previous Final Fantasy titles, players are able to customize their characters in limited ways, including race, gender, face, hair color, body size, job, and allegiance. Also corresponding to previous games in the series, all battles are real time, and enemies are no longer randomly encountered.
| There's More Than Just Combat In Vana'diel, your existence is not limited to battling the menagerie of dangerous creatures that lurk outside the city walls. You can also fish, synthesize items, and spend your time participating in a number of non-combative activities. |
| Crystals, the origin of all energy, are scattered throughout Vana'diel. By collecting them, you can use their powers to create new items and become a famous craftsman in your own right. Many other activities await. You can spend the day fishing, surrounded by the rich wilderness of Vana'diel. Try creating new recipes for fine dishes for your friends. Aim for riches by synthesizing fine jewelry. |
| Scour dark mines for precious ores. In FINAL FANTASY XI, combat is just the tip of the iceberg, if you'd rather enjoy a peaceful life inside the walls of the city, nobody will stop you! |
You guys are awesome! The flexi-hours leveling takes the edge off of the otherwise completely monotonous grind. I'm excited every time I log back in after your levelers work..
