How's this MMO, just picked it up for cheap

Got FFXIV: A Realm Reborn for $11 at Gamestop yesterday, got to level 6 and am having a fun time. Anyone play this or played it at some point? How's the game like going forward?

Yeah I dunno how I feel about it. I mean i'm having fun to a point, but I just don't think I can do it. I will like stare at my desktop icons battling on if I want to log in or not.

Leveling is fine, super-grindy to min/max end game. You end up playing every class based on what your 10 man raid needs basically. Sometimes its 6 AoE healers 3 wizards 1 tank, sometimes it's 8 rogues 1 tank 1 healer etc. You basically have to grind out every gearset and talent line.

Dat sounds pretty bad actually

I found it pretty enjoyable leveling up. Very linear quest line regarding the story but certainly worth $11.

Got to end game with a white mage, the main problem I found was that when they released new content they immediately nerfed old content (not talking because of new gear) but actually give you a buff while in the lower floors of the dungeon that gave you cure potency, attack potency, and HP/MP buff. Granted you can click off the buff to take on the first 5 floors as it was before, but when your re release of a game has only been out for 6-8 months nerfing your previous content is just a bad move.
