How does it work?

[Pacman]

I don't play the game but you make me wanting to play it!...
So could someone please explain to me, what is this Server Things, Jobs things, and how much would it cost me to play it... in which servers....

thanks.

[Sakaki]

Ok, here goes;

1.The initial buy is like $29.99 US
2.You are unable to choose the server in which to play, however if you know someone on a server you'd like to be on, ask them to buy you a world pass and you're all set.
3.Jobs..this is the fun part, picking a job and figuring out what you are good at and not so good at. Jobs are as follow;
WAR (Warrior)
THF (Thief)
MNK (Monk)
RDM (Red Mage)
BLM (Black Mage)
WHM (White Mage)
DRG (Dragoon)
SAM (Samurai)
NIN (Ninja, this job is insanely expensive to level)
PUP (Puppetmaster, not as fun as it sounds, infact, a total rip off of BST and MNK)
BST (Beastmaster)
RNG (Ranger)
BLU (Blue Mage, good job)
COR (Corsair, interesting job, like BRD, but with a twist)
BRD (Bard, if you're good...you get non-stop party invites 24/7)
SMN (Summoner, pain to unlock, but quite fun afterwards)
PLD (Paladin)
DRK (Dark Knight, insanely low party invites)


The monthy fee is $12.99 US and an additional $1.00 US for extra characters after purchasing the first Content ID.


Anything else, feel free to ask.

I guess I come in and explain the battle system. :biggrin:

It's basically the same as with FFXII but without a time bar. Each weapon has it's own 'delay' in which you have to wait until you can attack with it again. For example: a broadsword with a delay of 524, you would have to wait about 5 and a half seconds before your character can swing it again.
It's the same with spells and such. even the monsters have delay times.

Hope this is all helpful, Pac.

[Yoherz]

I think i'll sticky this.

[Pacman]

Yes it has, thanks.

Does the game has a ending? Or there is always something to do?
Is it like World of Warcraft? something like that... ?

And, is it worth the money?

[Yoherz]

Some say it's worth the money, others say it isn't. Personally, I think it is if you have plenty of time on your hands.

There isn't really an ending. There's always something to do because you can take jobs and stuff. It takes about 3 years to get a level 75 and so forth. Though, at the beginning it goes really slow and the cutscenes aren't all that great. Later on though, it gets far more interesting and the cutscenes are, as SodaCap would say, "eye-romancing."

[Sakaki]

The only 'endings' would be after completing all of RoZ and CoP...there isn't too much to ToAU really, just a bunch of missions for the General, there are like 18 total I think, I've only done mission one myself. However, that is really important to get done, as it grants you the ability to use Runic Portals, get Santion (Similar to Signet), and particpate in Assault missions for neat items.

[Yoherz]

Seems to me that the most important mission is the one that you do when you get to level 18. :laugh: Don't you agree?

What are the races you can choose from? I've been wondering that.
