Simple Question... Is there a future

[Vivik]

Ask yourself if you enjoy playing, if you answered "yes" then it's worth playing still.

You can't get a straight answer to a question whose answer is subjective to player's personal opinions. You can only answer that question for yourself. Play it for yourself then decide if it's worth playing or not.

I figure that the part of the ffxi team that does the storyline got pinched for ffxiv, so don't expect any new story until that is sorted. Then give them 6 months to write new stuff for ffxi.

June 2013 maybe?

You heard it here first.

/sigh these forums need a lesson on what is a troll and what is not a troll.

In Internet slang, a troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[4] The noun troll may refer to the provocative message itself, as in: "That was an excellent troll you posted".

If there is a future, its a bit far away.

They're lengthening the time it takes for them to release 99 for way too long.

Since the cap was raised it's all been filler content for every new level cap. Until we're 99 for awhile and endgame starts to add up, I don't see this game as worth playing. We had a lot of content at 75 that was viable for its level for years that added onto itself.

Abyssea was pretty big, but the only endgame right now other than abyssea is VW/dynamis. Both have a lot of crappy drops, take a lot of work, and have low drop rates. It is too obviously filler content... I know the point of running monthly MMOs is to keep the player there each month, but this content is too drawn out and lazy for me to play for another month .

I loved this game for years and years, and I'd come back to it if at 99 there are multiple fun endgame events like there were at 75. Until then It's not worth jumping through the hoops to pay SE.

Thought it was funny that this got posted a day before the road map shows 99 coming very quickly now lol.

As far as a "future" goes, I've never really cared as much for the endless content; in fact there's so much now I don't even know what most people do in the game anymore. Synergy? Voidwatch? Magian trials? Abyssea? I'm still waiting for the entirety of Vana'Diel to open up blah story blah three nations blah conquest... I haven't even been to Sea or unlocked Atonement yet, but real life's gotten so busy and the game's become so saturated with things that I can hardly be bothered keeping up with it anymore.

Sorry, just feeling a little nostalgic. Had the pleasure of installing the game on my new old PS3, and watching that crystal spin while Vana'Diel March and the Chains of Promathea music played really got me going. I remember playing through an entire night nonestop playing my first job from Gustaberg through Konschtat and into Valkurm in one go, stuff like that and my marriage mean more to me than anything I could ever do in the game anymore. But if they ever did anything with the three nations again, as I'm going into the U.S. Air Force, having the chance to participate in a Bastokan Air Force would probably rank #2 in my favorite memories of Final Fantasy XI.

Simple Question... Is there a future

I've always seen board after board of people who complain about XIV or that it is the future of the FF:MMORPG series but i have one major question...

Is there any point of playing FF:XI anymore????

I've seen the plans for XIV like expanding the game with new area's but i really want to know if we are EVER going to see a real expansion or is this game for those who've enjoyed every story line in the game going to be a pissing match for better gear once your done all of that.

Its just a simple question.

Is there a future for this game. YES OR NO??

Been asked a million times before, they just ignore it or say no immediate plans for one. Seeing how much effort and staff they are putting into FFXIV though, not a chance in hell. They don't have enough staff, money or indeed intrest atm to do it.

[Secondplanet]

glad to see this finally kick off. I wouldn't have minded them making 1 final mini-expansion for abyssea where you can visit the ruins of the old towns and even make those the new abyssea dynamis area's. Just have it that it was still too dangerous back before lvl 99 cap and put a real story in it this time.

I really do love this game, i got great friends, met my what was soon to be wife and now is wife in this game, enjoyed the odd event back in the day. This game hold a dear part of my heart but with all the story lines done and over with its seeming rather bland atm though T.T

give me more story T.T i need some amusment again lol -.-
