I joined Wutai because the more casual and non-elitists were in this server. I dont aim to be level 50, certainly not only in a few months of having the game. Theres far more to a MMO than grinding and our server has realized that more than the others.
Yeah, I agree, I'm personally not in a rush to level fast at all. And I personally feel the longer it takes me to reach the cap, the more the game will be patched up for me when I am higher rank/level(let's be honest, I'm sure Square is basing their content right now based on the ranks of the MAJORITY of people playing, not the few who are already rank 40-50).

That's part of my approach too though to be honest. I don't have as much time to play games as I used to (been making more time lately though ;P) because of work, college, etc,. I think the way the system is setup in this game is a lot like FFXI but without the annoyingness of feeling like you can't get ANYTHING done unless you at least play a certain amount of hours. In FFXIV I sometimes literally get to log in for like 20 minutes and I still would have made a bunch of exp/sp just from getting to craft a couple of items or something. It may not mean much to some people, but that's a very important thing for people like us :)

What he said...
The majority of people who joined "Wutai" was probably from the
FF7 crowd. And we all know how old FF7 is now... none of us (majority) have that type of time to invest to be numero uno for stuff on the server. We just want to enjoy our time and hope not to punch our PC Screen when a synth fails.
Other than that... they should have a "job diversity" chart and compare to other servers. You'll most likely see Wutai in the top 3 of that.
Edited, Nov 11th 2010 1:47pm by sodux I agree with you too man. I party joined Wutai because I new the older crowd of Final Fantasy fans would be on rather than the newer ones.
Off Topic: Square games I consider a dissapointment (no FFXIV isn't one of them O.o)
- Final Fantasy XIII (All I have to say is, what the hell? Where's the actual game?)
- Final Fantasy X-2 (I didn't hate this game but I thought it was still worth mentioning. They took such a good game and made a sequel that I felt didn't really reflect the quality of the first game. It had some interesting things in it, but overall it was just eh...
- Crisis Core (I had to put this here because I thought it was just abysmal. The people who thought this game was good are the people I want to avoid hahaha ;P
- Crystal Chronicles (The idea wasn't bad, it just wasn't done as well as I thought it would be.
Basically, most of the newer generation Square stuff isn't as pleasing to my appetite as their older generation stuff (FF6(3), Secret of Mana, FF7, Chrono Trigger, Chrono Cross, Secret of Evermore, Vagrant Story (crazy weird but good game, FFXIV actually reminds me of this game alot, FF 8 through 10, Final Fantasy Tactics (Superbly amazing!), and I think that's it.
Such a difference though huh?
