Hey,
Would really love if, in the future when the servers fully offline (I know development is going to stop, but I imagine servers will stay on for awhile after as long as it makes money), I'd really love it if there's some kinda support to change the game to run offline and transfer our characters to a single player means (and obviously rebalance some things to be solo-able).
That's a lot of work, I know, but I'd hate for a future where I can't play FFXI at all if I have the urge cause the company no longer supports it be nice to still have the option for a single player version.
