I played FFXI for about 8 years, took a few months off at a time though at points. Played up until the level cap was 90. I still remember when it took like half a year to get to 75, it was a pretty hardcore grind back then. I still have SO many memories of it, though through all the years all my friends have stopped playing so I haven't been back since, though I am constantly tempted too. Also played FFXIV for a couple of months and then immediately went back to FFXI lol. But I loved KotOR and I love Star Wars, so I decided once the release date was announced for this game that I would make the transition. Pandemonium all the way into the transition into Asura.
