All-New Expansions Please?

30 dollars is "a ton of money"?

The new XP camps, Besieged, Assault, a city with all guilds and a Jeuno auction house, weren't enough for 30 bucks?

Would gladly pay $30 for a full expansion! How many here would be OK with that?

Have a look at the description for the Bison Jacket set...

Why dear god did they use a Galka for the BLM set? /flameonSEI

Wings of the Goddess was released late 2007 and only recently had it's storyline concluded. If you remained a subscriber from release until the final missions that's about 20ish months ?( I don't remember the actual dates). 20 months times the cost of subscription and the cost of the expansion itself is well over 200 dollars. Add-ons, on the other hand, are only 10 dollars plus the subscription that month and have all their content immediately accessible.

The XP camps could have been done anywhere in the pre existing world but weren't. Besieged was extremely lazy design and all Aht Urghan did was move everyone from lower jeuno to whitegate and frustrated people when npcs went missing after besieged. Don't get me wrong though. ToAU was probably the most important expansion FFXI ever had. The problem is that FFXI development has been(up to this point);

1) come up with some silly idea
2) implement it into the game
3) watch players reaction to it
4) repeat

this is incredibly frustrating because it leads to dumb ideas like the evolith system that could be simply adjusted to be amazing but instead get set aside for some other dumb ideas.

There is a far off land below the seas where lays a city called Atlantis. ARRRRR these are the waters that black beard dare not go so be wary. Here tenzen awaits to avenge his wrath with a vengeance but beware there be mighty monsters to challenge the weary travelers even at the highest of levels so bring your friends bring them all because its here you will begin to fall!!! start off with an underwater new world under SEA that leads to a far off western lands but required to do a quest line + NM fights to access this new land with all new items and gear not for the faint hearted.
