The game can die quicker from burnout and frustration as well as from content that is too easily completed.

I think the current 10 to 1 card exchange ratio is too punitive, and more likely to...

Sorry if this is going off on a bit of a tangent, but I think lack of endgame alliance content is another factor that has harmed FFXI in recent years and lead to the decline of a culture of helping...

I agree. Subscriptions are on a monthly, not a daily basis. Time gates exist to make people maintain subscriptions. So from a business perspective, whether people do sortie twice per week and it...

Dear SE: throughout 20 years of FFXI, your philosophy on "experience points" in the broadest sense of the phrase (including job and exemplar points) has always been that they require grinding, i.e....

Given the age of the content, even an exchange rate of 2:1 would be reasonable.

I agree with Pixela. All but requiring a daily sortie grind is bad for the game.

I'm one of the many ffxi players who is a perfectionist. If I'm not working on getting BiS gear, the game is not...

To create more novelty in FFXI, give one job a big boost in every update cycle. The boost should obviously not be overpowered, but sufficient to disrupt stale job setups and enable new job...

I feel your frustration when one zone is taken over by a single group. But I think the better solution is to create enough apex camps so everyone can be happy. Put apex mobs into Crawler's Nest...

+1. Congestion and one or a few groups taking all mobs was a problem, but the solution did not work. Killing a large number of apex mobs with AoE was actually fun. By taking that away from the game,...

SE should just get rid of the mimic in the AMAN trove. No one fights it, it just adds an element of frustration, that you won't even get the scraps from the table drops that you would have gotten...

Please create a buy-back scheme for unneeded/unwanted sortie rewards (earrings and Ra'Kaznar Sapphires):

1 NQ earring to Ruspix -> 300 Gallimaufry (higher for HQ versions)
1 Ra'Kaznar Sapphire to...

Please introduce a quest that offers a KI as a reward which reduces exemplar point loss from dying.

I envy your superior understanding of what is in SE's best business interest. To me, the question of whether RMT M level botting helps them is not nearly as clear-cut. M levels seem to be designed as...

Discourage RMT cp/exemplar leveling with auto-warp of characters that have 'wasted' enough apex/locus monsters.

For characters that have job master and not opened the mastery level system, or...

With unlimited instant logout, you could get your trusts back that died, or get full trusts. Slap a dot on the boss, log out instantly on the periphery of the battlefield, wait a few seconds to let...

It's a very good idea but I think a carrot and stick approach is best. Give a substantial CP bonus that needs to be claimed daily, but also limit the amount of CP a character can earn per Earth day....

+1. FFXI's stance on same-sex relations (also in weddings) has been outdated for a long time. Conservative social attitudes in Japan cannot excuse it. A majority of Japanese people supports same-sex...

Please revitalize Campaign and Besieged by scaling enemies and NPCs to level 119 or higher and giving a capacity point reward at the end. Those who have job mastery would get an exemplar point reward...

Please expand the hint system that was recently introduced into the A.M.A.N. trove. Currently, a "belligerent bang" message after opening three chests may indicate that there is a loud thud in one of...

Please allow the NPC Elijah to teleport a character to any of the Peculiar Footprints locations whose correspondent ROE obective has been unlocked.

Some people level multiple characters and have to do the same quests and missions again and again. In any event, an extra homepoint would not harm those who do not need to go there. You would be free...

Please add another homepoint in Windurst Walls, near Shantotto's manor.

The point is that even the most dedicated will not grind for 24 hour a day, 7 days per week.

Time gates have never driven veteran players away. In fact, FFXI sustained itself on time-gated...

RTMs do a lot of damage to SE's business. SE creates content that could keep players busy for literally years, and thanks to RMTs, people complete the content quickly, get bored and quit again...

I would like to propose a time-gate solution to fix the problem of pervasive out-sourcing of a major game element - earning job points and master level - to RMT botters.

Give every character 2...
