hmm, is the special ring you get for starting in the correct kingdom important? If so no way I'll start in Windurst

Dylflon · 08-25-2003, 08:31 PM

the ring isn't very good.

it's only okay.

you find better stuff easily.

Heh... Me and DarkMaster just had a discussion about the 3 places in FFXI. Windurst is like the "poor African country" of the World, Bastok is like the "America" of the world, while San'doria is the "Japan" of the world. Badically Windurst is just... uh.. I dont know how to explain it. But it's not really anything special. Bastok is supposed to be a nation of power. We (I say "we" because I have chosen Bastok) will rule the world with our technology and tons of cash because we are practically sitting on a gold mine. San'doria is supposed to be a place of intelligence, but hah! We'll see how smart they are when they're precious Kigndom is getting it's arse kicked!!! *evil laughter* They just think so are so good... The Republic Of Bastok, the foundation of power in FFXI will rule all!

Heh heh....

By the way, Rndm and I seem to be the only ones who are starting from Bastok.. anyone else is welcome to join us.

Well, I guess we're not all starting in the same kingdom. But with world passes, I'll make sure we're all on the same server.

Well..I'm gonna be Hume......... and I'm gonna be a Paladin (Light version of what you are)........ maybe, just maybe. (if you are my only friend to start there you better help me with my level mr PC head-start man)

I like things about all countries though... I think Bastok is the all around best, but I think it will be over-populated, and it will have the most casual gamers. While I think windurst is the worst by far on paper I think that more serious gamers will come there, and it will be uner populated so every person there will be of some value especially outside races... I could see them coming together like one big gang before any other country.

San'doria... is... well, Middle of the road in some sense... because of thier lack of variety, I think there power will come in pure numbers.

Well, you don't need to be from Bastok if you're going to be a Hume. But, Rndm isn't gettign FFXi until the ps2 version, so if you're getting the pc one you can join me early on (if you're going to be from Bastok). And you're right... Bastok probably will end up with the most people. But that is a good thing... and I'd like to be a rare "smart person" in Bastok, if you know what I mean, heh.

And, instead of having one coutnry has the "hq" for the Gt thing... we could be scattered around and have several divisions of our "clan", like Bastok Division, Windurst Division, and San'doria Division.

I'm getting the Ps2 one... what I was saying was you may be a high level before I even come... so I would want to tag along for some of yor missions to level up quickly.

DarkMaster · 08-25-2003, 11:21 PM

All those who oppose the mighty lands of San d'Oria shall receive nothing less than a most brutal death. You dare to strike us down, but you shall strike us no more, for let it be known, that the hand who tries to rid us of our greatness and honor shall be swiftly cut down.

We will plague the land of Vana Diel with the enrichment of our power, for we are wise beyond the likes of the feign devils to the south. The foolish, arrogant, greedy men of Bastok, who hunger for power, but shall attain nothing more than an embarassing defeat. And the lowly beings on the continent time forgot are no match for the likes of our great army, the Gustav Van Dier!

I shall smite thee, and all who oppose the mighty kingdom of San d'Oria, future rulers of Vana Diel!

So says the ignorant fool!

No really, San d'Oria has a whole lot more going on for it than most people know, that's why it'll most likely have the least numbers. We also have the greatest army, while the people of Windurst hide behind their magic and the people of Bastok hide behind their rifles. For shame.

At least us Bastokans will be laughing when you run up to us with your pitchforks while we're mowing down your army with our guns! Hahah! Stupid cocky Sandorians.

.....

I say Bastok and Windurst ally against Sandoria, then Bastok will turn it's back and burn down Windurst's tree... then Bastok will win!

Haha.

Really though? Who really cares? Just pick your country and have fun.

your foolish north will be slaughtered by hero2 and his army of the red penguins

Oh, I'm sorry, but all I read was "blah blah blah, Bastok sucks"
