Can't help but feel slightly disappointed :(Follow

My brother dragged me to the computer today to show me what Blizzard has done for WoW players this year for christmas.

Basicly he was zooming round on Rudolph the red nosed reindeer flying over this big snowy landscape from the new expansion and there were people in santa outfits running round.

I then thought about what I can expect in FFXI and well not a lot shame.

I don't even do the FFXI events because at the end of the day the gear just wastes space. I'm not gonna run out and buy WoW but sometimes it's hard to say lol WoW especially when you realise what a limited game FFXI can be.

Chocobo's can fly so lets make some zones where they can lol, though I feel sorry for the ones carrying Galkas lol

Lol so true I couldn't bare to click on everything, I even use a PS2 controller adapter cause I don't like PC game pads lol

I didn't ask but there outfit gets a beard which was a nice touch it was the Reindeer bit that was most cool to see.

I play on pc, I don't think I've ever clicked on anything lol. Tab & Function keys ftw. I also own the game on Xbox and use the keyboard over the controller.

To the op: Ya they get some fancy stuff while this year all we get is a lol bell weapon /sigh. On the other hand I enjoyed doing the missions for FFXI. I haven't done anything on WoW that I enjoyed aside from PvP. I haven't played the new wow expansion yet but my WoW friends that work for Blizzard say they've improved a lot as far as storyline goes for wrath. I will look into later when I get bored with the horribly slow released mission content of ffxi.

I think all Online games like this are about teamwork not just FFXI. All I was saying was how it looked fun is all.

This is a forum and WoW isn't taboo it shouldn't be a case of wait to see this get defaulted I like fancy things like this and it's good to see my Brother having fun on it.

I can quite honestly say I've never done anything in FFXI worth showing to anyone he has somthing to show me every time I come home and it makes me laugh what he gets up to lol.

so far my favorite FFXI event of all time was the buffalo event where u had to defeat the buffalo and get the enmity + sashes once there dead and the one where u and ur friend had to find the right ??? in areas to get those firework body pieces.

ffxi doesn't have special events. they have come get this item for a limited time and once you get it **** the event.

In FFIV black chocobos fly, UNIDMOARFF!!

Ken.

No, it wasn't. Maybe you previously switched the bgm file, because Summerfest 2008 definitely had that great music, which I love :P.

btw guys, you can play with the gamepad pc games that doesn't have pad support too

the thing about WoW events is its a bunch of statless junk just like the NQ rewards from ffxi events then ton's of free food that is just a renamed version of food you could already make and a bunch of gear that is just renamed replicas of pre-existing gear which ends up just pissing off people that got the gear the hard way.
reindeer is the same, "reindeer" is just a one time use item that makes your mount a reindeer until you dismount.

ffxi is more of an "omg +1 int!" whereas wow is "omg shiny!" i know when i played WoW a lot of time spent was to get "same exact thing but looks prettier"

For some reason I have this santa outfit from FFXI's christmas event.
I get free cookies to!
