If you've done the Final Fantasy marathon did you include FF XI? Was it worth it? (lemmy.world)

I've been playing through all the numbered games and its been great. I could write an essay or two on any of them. In general I'm only including base games and no expansions or DLC so it wouldn't be a huge undertaking to beat 11, but I'm trying to see if it's worth it from others who have done the marathon.

I was already a XIV player before I started this so that base game has been covered for awhile now.

I've played all of the mainline games over the years, but my only experience with FFXI was a couple of hours of the beta. Tried the marathon as a set of replays several years back and only made it to the start of IX. The load times and the glacial pace of the battles was too much by that point. I think I was planning on skipping XI.

You could also try asking in !finalfantasy@lemmy.world and !jrpg@lemmy.zip.
