Yeah I'm in chapter 5 right now and its kind of boring... You're right. Walk in straight line, battle, cut scene. It's crap.
Which is why I'm looking to but FFXI.... Any opinion on it?
Yeah.. total waste of money.. you should wait until XIV Reborn is released later this year if you want a Final Fantasy MMORPG..
If you're just looking for a good Final Fantasy game on a recent console, I'd recommend Final Fantasy XII. It's the nature evolutionary step from FFXI's battle system brought into a single player context. It's hard to explain in a short period but suffice it to say the game is easily an 8.5/10. The only downside is the hard to follow storyline and the really shitty main character (Vaan). But the gameplay more than make up for it.
I'd strongly recommend emulating the game on your PC if that's possible so that you can apply plugins and filters to get relatively good graphics. On my PC at 1920x1080 (playing on a 55" LED w/PS3 controller) the game looks infinitely better than it does on the PS2 (very crisp clean images, no jittery polys and no fuzzy/blurred upscaling).
