i think its outright irresponsible for the company to make a boss like that. people playing for 18 hrs and vomiting and saying they cant go on. that isnt a goal they should put into the game. What se is doing is damaging the ff franchise and risking any future ff online titles from grabing prior users. Irresponsible on se's part. |

The reason you won't go back to FFXI is because the strategies for two optional mobs in the game have yet to be uncovered? |

2-3 Hours spent killing Jailer of Love was ... borderline too much for me, at the time when I did it. It was exciting and fun. 18 hours...? What is your limit? |

As people get better and strategies are fine tuned, everything gets faster/easier. LSs kill Ouryu in 13 mins and Tiamat in 40 mins now. |

No one is going to develop a strategy to kill it in a reasonable amount of time (i.e I consider under two hours). |

This is the headline on Yahoo news right now. People at work were emailing me and giving me shit, because they remember me being a hermit during the FFXI days. One of my friend/co-workers said "you are in trouble when this game comes out!" I informed him it was the same FFXI I used to play. It seems like I haven't played in so long. It's maybe been a year and a half? since I logged in. My life has gotten soooooooo much better post FFXI. |

Maybe they should have just given up if it was obvious they weren't getting anywhere after 20 transformations and 18 hours. This isn't anyone's fault but their own. And maybe the JPs cuz it's always their fault. |
