I've been considering looking into FF XI recently.
FFXI's actually my online game of choice most of the time, though I haven't been on much in the past few months for various reasons.
It's really an entirely different experience from CoH. (I'd almost consider it the total opposite of CoH - part of why playing the other game always helped when I was getting burned out on one.) Groups are just shy of mandatory for levelling, and even levelling at a slow pace solo requires really knowing your stuff. There's a lot of really interesting story in there, but doing a lot of it requires a group of people with a fair amount of long term dedication to pull off. (I'd try to convince you if you decided to start playing to do so on the server I'm on, but *I'm* considering a server transfer because the linkshell I was in has sort of imploded. '.' )
Anyway, if you're wondering about anything about the game, I can probably give you some sort of idea about it. I know the stuff I read beforehand didn't really prepare me for a lot of things, even if most of it did turn out to be as cool as I was expecting.
