Pandemonium Warden : Final Fantasy XI - Most Absurd Battle In Gaming History!

Game Podunk

So I’ve found a new forum to scroll through in my spare time. www.gamepodunk.com

This is a great little forum devoted entirely to gaming! While perusing the forums I came across an interesting news article.

Finaly Fantasy XI Boss Takes 18+ hours to kill!

There’s been no boss in the history of gaming that has ever taken this long, or at least taken this long and given no benefits whatsoever! This boss has easily become one of the most controversial in the gaming sphere that puts pressure on not only the players to do the impossible, but on the game designers for creating such a cruel enemy.

Bosses like this are largely responsible for deterring many gamers to playing or becoming hardcore gamers, as it can be an unhealthy lifestyle, but a damn fun one that will give you a sense of accomplishment if you’re very goal-oriented.
