Final Fantasy XI players fight enemy 18 hours, still die

[Logan's Lady]

Whoa...... 18 hours... no thanks.

My husband and I defeated Marvel Ultimate Alliance on the hard level but we did it over a weeks worth of time... not trying to do it straight

 

[Gotham]

That's insane. I've spent maybe four hours on a game. At most.

 

[bullets]

i once played a wrestling game with my buddy on a sleep over we started at six and before you know it the sun came back up.......... ridiculous.

 

[Leto Atrides]

Exactly! Don't complain over **** you don't have to do. Don't stab yourself in the foot and complaint to the knife company for making the knife too sharp.

They're not mad that at Square Enix because they spent that much time playing the game, they're mad that the company put in a boss that needs that much time to beat.

If I was paying to play and get new content, I'd be mad too if it the new things they were coming out with were effectively unplayable.

 

[bullets]

it's about time a game is worth the money you spend on it.

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I've played MMORPGs for around 9 hours before but it wasn't fighting one guy. That's crazy.

 

[Evelisse]

Wait,...just wait a second, how did they fit in 18 hours of gaming in between all the sex they were having with there girlfriends and wives?

Haha

The "group" played for 18 hours, I'm sure some of them just went afk and did other things while their teamates went to town on the enemy

 

[The Lizard]

Just to clarify, the "Pandemonium Warden" boss does NOT have to be defeated to complete the overall missions of the FFXI game. Obviously it was just stuck in there to mess with the heads of the hardcore gamers who think that they can defeat anything if they just geek out enough.

I think it's a good lesson in life -- some enemies you can't defeat, so you just avoid them.

 

[huskerwebhead]

Leroy Jenkins could have defeated him easy!

 

[jaguarr]

I applaud Square Enix for torturing their dedicated customer-base this way...er...I mean...giving them a challenge worthy of their attention.

[Jennifer Walters]

Just you wait...some loser is going to kill himself trying to beat the damn monster.

 

[RickO'Connell]

This has a South Park episode all over it

Wow. You are brilliant.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

Haha

THAT is why they failed!

Next time, form a group of real men, who will not go afk until victory!

 

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, you only go afk to pee and to grab more Mountain Dew

 

[jaguarr]

IDK WTF AFK means? NE1?

[Wilhelm-Scream]

NO!!

Chug the Mountain Dew you got from the small fridge you keep next to the computer, then piss in the empty bottle!
Don't you know anything about advanced MMORPGing?

Pffft! Amateur. True pro gamers use intravenous fluids and catheter systems.

This reminds me of a story.

In 1995, I bought an old Sega video game called "Shadow of the Beast". A thrilling adventure about some alien dude running through **** to do something. I don't remember. I played that game nonstop for 3 1/2 weeks and never beat it. I lost 37 pounds and was about an hour away from dying before my Sega overheated and died. At that point I almost committed ritual suicide but decided to play Sonic 3 instead.

AFK = Away from Keyboard.....

And yeah 18 hours trying to defeat one guy is just crazy...

away from keyboard

Often used when:

- you need to use the bathroom quickly(no pooping or you will be booted from group)
- you need to grab more Mountain Dew
- your mom/wife/girlfriend is yelling at you to clean something or take out the trash
- you're experiencing crazy lag due to the 5 pornos you're downloading while simultaneously posing as a lesbian in a chatroom and playing the game

 

[Colossal Spoons]

NO!!

Ha, no TRUE gamer would download pornos because they know there's no time to spank the monkey, you heathen!
