Before answering about it i have few questions:
1) What happened on the other ls?
2) Why are you sharing this?
Anyway i don't think you made a major mistake by joining FFXI. The game itself isn't really easy to fully understand even for more younger or experienced players. A lot of people thinks they get it already but they just see the tip of the iceberg and don't realize the complex mechanics that builds the game and what else is in store for them to enjoy on higher level end game. If sometimes you feel a bit out of place don't worry, when you just started an online game it's common to feel that way. My only advice is to keep an open mind, read a lot and ask for advice if you are not sure about something (be careful to ask to the right people), you will end up being the one giving out advices sooner or later ;)
If you need any help or directions let me know here or in game.
