Only other thing I can think of is if someone has a char in it, they can help by setting up a basic list, with a few guidelines set by you. Ie: since ya dont want to use pre made stuff using Masamune for a Gk or trademarked stuff from anime whould be out. This whould help aliviate some of the work ya need to do. Stat wise tho ya probably whould need to do yaself, don't want a lvl 10 char oneshotting bosses lol.
Back when I was making one on RM2K3 I had set weapons and said chars equipped souls to boost Thier stats, ranging from nq to +S (7ranks) ie: person gets a goblin soul>equips>gained attack+2 dmg+4 and a +1 whould have a +1 to those stats <HQs> where gained thro a long scripted crafting event my friend wrote lol ><
A basic list would be nice, but only a couple of people did that and I'm not gonna bother people with it.
Also; what class was your character? My backup files say different things, and I know you asked me to change it at some point, so have no idea which the latest was.
I made a system like that in 2k3, too. Had to make the equip screen from scratch because of the lack of scripting back then. So many events... @_@;
Super easy to do with the equip script I have on VXA, though.
Idr lol all I remember was H2H with abilities that do massive dmg and increase speed? Idk I'll work on a list when I get home
I wonder if FFXI's active subscription numbers are up or down after SoA...
I think it might of just peaked while it came out and then slowed down again.
It's kinda disappointing, they added two new jobs, one of them is pseudo-useful. They wanted "casual friendly", to join in activity to get gear to do new stuff, people demand R/M/Es. They were supposedly going to bring back real fights, everything is still a zerg fest.
It's just new content along the same lines as old content with overpowered rewards that not only renders one new job useless, but also a couple formerly useful jobs, too.
I'm just kinda in a mood to *** at the moment, but honestly, I've been a FF fan since I was 9 years old, had a friend around the street who had a PSX and FFVII, one week end I'd spend the night at his house, the next he'd spend at mine, good times. Our goal was to get out of Midgar in one night, he could do it no prob, but I was proud of myself when I shimmied down the rope and landed just outside the gate of the slums, only to find he fell asleep over a bag of doritos. Then FFVIII came out, then FFIX, good old days. But after that Final Fantasy declined, where did the world map go? FFX had one in trailers, but not in the final game. Best they've made since FFIX was Pre-SoA FFXI and FFXII.
FFXII had shitty character development, but it made up for it in playability, IMO.
To be fair on FF X and no world map the world was the world map sorta. Spira wasn't very big and the edge of every area leads directly into the next.
Personally world maps have never been much different from picking from a list to me once you have the airship or whatever. Before that it is still a linear progression from one area to the next most of the time. The tunnel is wide but it's still a tunnel.
I only want to see FFXIV make it because, let's face it, if not, SE is probably finished. I've heard a few people say FFXIV was nothing special, that zones were kinda copy and paste, that it was boring. I kinda feel like after ARR, SoA needs to undergo a relaunch pf it's own. Adoulin, the city, seems unfinished and only one house is enterable, only during a quest and the inside is a Jeunoan house. Nothing they have said about how SoA would be has really come true except that it is for lv 99s and they added two jobs, one of which can't even do it's job unless you're VERY OCD when playing it, and if not, you fail.
I'm still against the drastic rate at which gear progresses, if the community hadn't gotten so pissed, the Delve weapons would've probably be rendered useless by now in an update over the last month. Secondly, after Delve, then what? More delve? More delve.

Problem was FFX was too linear, there were no real out of the way stops between Besaid and Zanarkand.
One way FFX beat FFXII was that Tidus was in a new world he was annoyingly ignorant about, but eventually learned and became a trusted leader. Vaan was in his home world, annoyingly ignorant, and was still getting on nerves into the sequel.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
