Even though it's an online game, it's definitely fighting the end-game bosses on Final Fantasy XI and Final Fantasy XIV. I've only done the Avatar fights (summons for Summoner) on FFXI, and I've only got to do the Ifrit Primal fight on FFXIV, and I haven't done Garuda yet. I've heard that she's a bitch to fight, though. Here's what to expect with Ifrit:

 

And here's Garuda:

 

Of course on FFXIV, if you defeat Ifrit and Garuda in the Hard battles, you get weapons.

Ifrit weapons:

 

Garuda weapons:

 

And let's not forget you can fight...MOOGLES!

 

Moogle weapons:

 

I'm showing you this because us, as players, can carve our own destiny in these games and experience these memorial fights. Plus get rewarded with weapons. And unlike in FFXI, which you get to summon Ifrit and Garuda, you are unable to in FFXIV yet (and it will be different summons as the Primals can only be summoned once in the new Version 2.0 game).


Wow, those bosses look pretty epic. I wish I had the time to dive into MMORPGs.

I will tell you that FFXIV is EXTREMELY easy to play. You can get to the level cap of 50 just by soloing! Not joking. This game is geared towards both partying and soloing. It's just that some areas and quests/missions require partying to get through. I hardly party on the game myself and I'm currently trying to get enough gil through these repeatable quests called Leves that you do (you get gil and items such as food, gear, weapons, etc.). To change classes/jobs, all you need is to switch the weapons/tools in your first hand slot. Want to be a Gladiator? Equip a sword. Want to be a Maurader? Equip a great axe. Once you get to Lv30 with your battle classes, you can upgrade them to your jobs (classes are more versatile and are easier for soloing; jobs are geared towards partying).

Gladiator (sword) > Paladin
Pugilist (hand-to-hand) > Monk
Maurader (great axe) > Warrior
Lancer (polearm) > Dragoon
Archer (bow) > Bard
Conjurer (wand/staff) > White Mage
Thaumaturge (wand/staff) > Black Mage

Every 5 levels for your jobs, you can learn weapon skills, skills, and get your end-game (Artifact) armor for the jobs. Unlike Final Fantasy XI when you switch to a new job that you start from Lv1; instead on FFXIV the jobs are actually like a fresh coat of paint to your class. Lv30 Paladin (Gladiator) etc. by just equipping a Soul Crystal.

Btw, DRG is kickass and you'd LOVE it on the game. Once Version 2.0 is released, there will be more classes/jobs available. Wagram will be making a new thread in honor and hyping 2.0 once the new information is released by SE in August, so keep checking the MMO forum on here.
