Final Fantasy 11 worked perfectly with the controller. FFXIV has a completely different set of hotbars that show up when you use the controller on the PC. The only hard part I imagine would be chatting.

I'm having a problem accepting and finishing the Job daily quest every day. I keep getting all this gold but always run out of time in the week to spend it.

As far as I know the PS3 version is "good enough". But remember, you will get a free upgrade to the PS4 version when it comes out.

It was an online only tournament.

That third map is exactly why you NEVER BASE RACE A TERRAN.

Ya, I have heard the advice of "just make SOMETHING" a few times. And I would say it is good advice. My issue is finding the time/energy/willpower to start and stick with it. I'll often start something just to get distracted by something else a few days later, or I'll get frustrated because I try to do to much to fast…

I dont think I'v played a OpenGL game in a good 10 years. I always remember the graphics never looking as good DX games.

I have not ran MSOffice on my home computer for years, LibreOffice is as good or better for what little of it I use at home. With SteamOS the only thing I would still need Windows for is the few non-steam games that do not have a Linux port.

Really, the only thing I use windows at home for is gaming. 99% of everything else is done on the web so really if SteamOS supports 90+% of Steam games it could easily become my main OS.

I'll just reply to both of your responses with one post to simplify things.

Wow, really? A reply to a 3+ year old post?

And I was saying that the excuse is not valid because they already had the issue solved in D2 by making online and offline characters completely independent.

So why not do what D2 did and have online and offline only characters?

Just a little farther, now...

What is the point of "success" when the end result is the same? It is funny that you mention treading water, because that feels like what I have been doing my whole life. My muscles are getting sore and if drowning was not so painful I would sink to the bottom today.

Yes, I know the whole "I am lucky enough to have X" argument and it makes me even more depressed that I feel this way because I have no right to. It also makes me wonder how people who have it real worst then me can continue to life if I have it "this good" and still feel like shit.

I'm mostly wondering WHY things have to be that way. Who decided that work should start at 8am? Why do people insist on working so much when they can survive on less? The reason I went to college for 4 years was so I did not have to work as many hours as my parents did to live comfortably. That turns out to not be the…

the only solution I have ever found is to endure

It is hard not to think that I am hopeless. I have felt these things since at least high school, if not way before. I have always been on the outside and isolated from this world.

Neither of them will "cure" you - but they are coaches for providing you with some more tools that will hopefully enable you to pull yourself out of the situation
