A Thank you! to the SE Final Fantasy XI Team...
Dear Sirs/Madams:
As a continuous, non-stop subscriber to FFXI since 2004, I want to take this time to say "Thank you so very much."
This comes from my realizing just how much of an impact your online game has had on my life over the years. With all of the updates, expansions and adjustments you are recently making to breathe new life into this incredible odyssey; it blows my mind.
I've always looked forward to being able to share my online experiences with my loved ones... meeting new people from all over the world... and banding together to overcome the odds as they are stacked against us... your adding new and exciting material is now allowing me to do just that. It's difficult to want to see something that has come to mean so much, come to an end--and to know that you guys are committed to this game just brings tears of joy to my eyes.
There are so many "new" MMORPGs that have come out, many using your very framework in which to try and create an experience to rival what you have already accomplished... but there will NEVER ever be another Final Fantasy XI. In my opinion you have already made history with this game; and I believe there are thousands of gamers (previous as well as current) who would agree with me on this.
So not to run too long... As long as your FFXI servers are running, you'll always have my subscription.
ありがとうございます！私は非常に感謝しています。 /bow
