Please, developers or higher-ups, why do you no longer host FFXI conventions in NA anymore? You are treating us like bastard-stepchildren, and we are a huge player-base and $$ center for you. The last one held here was sold out in minutes, so dont spew any BS about lack of participation. I request an honest response about why we have been ignored year after year, after 2 incredibly successful showings for the NA conventions.
I'll state it as this... we are a hundred times larger than Japan, people flew 3000 miles to get to the one held in California, a considerable sacrifice compared to people traveling from the farthest points in Japan to wherever the convention is held there.
I see the announcement for Vanafest out there, and it only serves as a painful reminder we're being ignored.
