Where's OUR discount?

10 years is more of a "Legacy" than 2. Plus, FFXIV was free for at least half a year. FFXI players never had such a downtime as FFXIV, granted, but there are those stubborn faithfuls including me, who have stuck around all along. And I'm not "whining" for a price cut. Just saying in the current time compared to 10 years ago, better stuff is out there that is free, and copy-paste content add-ons is just more time sink, which frankly I don't have the free time to sink into.

"Wahhhhh Price Cut NAO, give it" ....Now THAT's whining :cool:

Why should FFXIV players get a thank you? So they paid for a game that turned out to suck. Big whoop. Been there, done that, didn't ever even get a t-shirt. Back in the day you didn't even get an "I'm sorry we'll do better next time." You were just stuck with a bad game.

I don't think anyone here is asking for anything that SE isn't already offering to a portion of their customers, so I don't agree with the entitlement angle. It's more like, "If them why not us?" If you see that entitlement then that's fine. I don't see it that way, and I don't really care if you do or not.

What is with people on this forum and feeling like their entitled to everything.

Cry less or stop playing.

I find it hilarious that the FFXIV population is so low that they can include all the players' names in the credits. What a great way to promote your game haha.

The current price is $ 9.99 a month. It's just a marketing gimmick. Making their current players think they get a discount, because they know damn well 2.0 ($14.95) is not going to lure in a ton of players. They are trying to get as many people as they can now.
I feel bad for SE maybe in about 2 years they'll realize that FFXI still has higher subscriptions. They should have made and new graphic engine for XI instead.

Does this announcement mean 2.0 will be out in less than 90 days or can we sign up now for special pricing and pretend to be loyal FFXVI customers?

Words cannot express how much I agree with this, and how much I wish this happened instead.

Dude, if I could I would shake your hand. :cool:

Because they're among the handful that didn't quit what ended up being an expensive and lengthy beta test? I'd be pretty thankful my game that I spent millions making isn't totally dead if I were SE.

IF anything FFXI should be more expensive 12.99 was good 10 years ago but I'm sure operating costs have gone up in 10 years, electric, rent, cost of living, salary etc.
