I used to play Ff XI a lot, The thing about these MMO's is The bonds you form with your clan, I can't find Skoshi and BackMeth and honestly, Without my clan, it's just not the same game to me. So, When a clan finally does dissolve, You never manage to ever capture that awesome aspect of the game in the same way ever again. In fairness though, There should never be a time in a game when a person just isn't able to do a thing without recruiting fifteen real world people, That's hard to do even in the midst of a party on any given Friday night,
Though I was Badass in XI, I had my full AF gear and Maxed with merit points. I was a black/Red Mage.
