Which, Chrono Cross or FFXI? Because despite the huge QoL changes they made, XI is still a very old MMO that takes quite a bit lol.
I can say without a doubt though that if you enjoyed XIV's Shadowbringers (and who didn't, it was great and I know you love it) I kept saying to my other XI playing friends "holy shit this is like Zilart and Promathia rolled into one and I LOVE IT." so I can say those are worth it + Treasures of Aht Urgahn. _________________

We've been playing through Legend of Mana, as well as Darksiders Warmastered on Switch. Slowly working our way through Tales of Vesperia DE too.

FFXI. And the thing is, I'm fairly tolerate for outdated gaming systems. I grew up playing games on an IBM 386. I gather that it's very menu heavy and clunky.
Furthermore, I believe a good story can make you go through rough or punishing game systems. I beat Risen 1.  _________________ Support me on Patreon!

It is incredibly menu-heavy. You also don't get gil very easily and there's no quest markers - gotta use the ol' FFXIclopedia but hey, if I'm still playing when you decide to try it out (and yes, there is a free trial, but I'm not sure how it works) lemme know. I'll hook you up with a Gold World Pass. _________________

We've heard about it. We're kind of hyped for it, as we think it's a beautiful
underrated game that deserves more love.
