ITT: There is no objective way to determine who the best/top 40 players of FFXI are/were, especially when a majority of them or those who they played with haven't touched the game or its communities in years.

Absolutely this, in both the "objectively there is no 100% accurate metric for this" sense and the "the game is a decade and a half old, encompassing multiple eras, with so many gone that how do we even?"

I'd like to point out, just cause they solo real good doesn't mean their the best at their job.
soloing and working as a team is the aim of the game here.

^-^
there are plenty of people who are extremely talented at their jobs and never solo at all.

I'd like to point out we are quickly moving this to "the best 500 players of all time" with the number of suggestions rolling in from over a decade of players.

Are we really expecting this to pan out anyway? Better said, is the OP expecting that?


This thread would be so much better if it's "Name the top players in your mind" instead of "top 40 of all time". That way we can all just write down players that we appreciate the most.

Otherwise it'll just turn into "A player is better than B player" pissing contest, as many of the posts in this thread are already like that.

I mean, if op's goal is to learn the story of different player, he could just do "name your favorite players" instead of using a more sensitive term like "top 40 of all time" or "stand above the crowd"

I have my list of my favorite players of all time, but kinda reluctant to share it just because I think it's promoting pissing contest lol.

I'd like to see an expansive list of the top 40 players who actively post here but don't even play the game anymore - and haven't for years.

Avesta has this big fanboy cult because of the impression he left from videos and not actually because he was the best player. People are impressionable and don't know better.

It wasn't an argument I was prepared to start but I tend to agree whole-heartedly.

More or less. I'm hesitant even to say Ruke. Not that he doesn't deserve to be in consideration if we have to make such a list, because he was a good player and -- uncharacteristic for a lot of good players in this game -- pretty humble about it, and non-judgmental about other people. But he's (still) got enough fanbois already for a dude who hasn't played in over six years. Mofo doesn't need me fluffing him.

Let's not forget the people at Brady Games. They played this game just to make that guide for us all.

God bless you FFXI players of Brady Games!

It's because of that guide I'm played monk/whm the entire time !

Avesta*!

This leads into a dangerous discussion of "what exactly is cheating" though.

For example if I solo with gearswap for an efficiency gain a vanilla player can't touch (this, *music plays*) then that is honestly cheating in the sense of the word. Akin to performance enhancing drugs in sports.

And much like performance-enhancing drugs in sports, it makes the end product more watchable and why do we even bother playing this game of moral superiority?

Make steroids mandatory already. I want entertainment! Don't give me that hogwash about player safety. If we gave a single *** about that the NFL wouldn't exist.

That's exactly why I don't like NFL, Boxing, and the likes.

Meh. Won't go into it further in this thread. But boxing/MMA have their own issues that have nothing to do with PEDs that make them intolerable.

Oh, I didn't mean because of PEDs, but because they're violent sports and there's potential for lasting, serious disability.

Well people use drugs, it force others to use drugs to keep up. In the end every player risk their life and health to "entertain" others.

Regarding GS and tools, it has nothing to do with moral superiority, more has something to do some players act as if they are "better" because they use it, then look down toward others who choose not to use it and call them "suck" or "choose to be bad" or "unfit for endgame", even though there are many players who choose not to use it plays perfectly fine in endgame settings.

Probably another reason why I'm against all that " A Player is better than B Player" discussions.
