Hmmm, for some reason I thought the original time for the version update would've been around the end of March and not mid-April before the Earthquake happened, but I guess the original times was a little later than I thought. It's perfectly understandable though with all these delays and SE will probably need 2-3 weeks more to prepare the version update whenever the servers are back up whether it be a week, a few weeks or months. I'm hoping Japan will get a good recovery and that everyone can get together to support those people who might've lost someone due to these recent events.
I don't know anyone in Japan but hearing about what has happened recently there and watching a bit of the news has gotten me down a little, but we all have to be strong and live our lives as best as possible with our loved ones and appreciate and enjoy moments that we have left in our life.
In the meantime, I'm playing other games by Square Enix while FFXI is down. I was just playing a Valkyrie profile game for a few hours before this post, then I might go play a Kingdom Hearts game.
