I dunno. I guess it is hard. On the one hand, I think, even I'm not so interested in reading about original characters in FFXI, especially when it doesn't relate to the canon story. XD; But on the other hand... this is slightly different, but there actually is an official novelization of FFXI (and FFXIV, actually), which is kind of like... official OCs almost. XD;
*nods* I guess any kind of art would be easier... XD; Plus, the other comic I was planning to do for it directly follows one of the game stories, just with a group of people in place of the single player-character, so I'm assuming that won't cause a problem at all?
Yeah. I think one thing is, JRPGs only tell you things you need to know, when you need to know them. But MMOs can't program every character to say something different depending on where you are in a number of missions and quests (although a few important ones do?), so most of the world info is available at all times, and there's a lot of background stuff out of game...
