Greetings,

There has been a lot of feedback asking to remove the party member limitations for various content so that it can be undertaken solo.

Below is a reply from Associate Director Yoji Fujito explaining the technical issues surrounding this as well as a potential solution.

This is pretty basic stuff. If you wonder why people are upset and leaving this game...it's because we are paying money for a monthly service and we are not getting our money's worth.

It's assumed that FFXI revenues will go to other projects...but when this little goes towards providing the service that we pay for - like keeping the hardware current, it leads to the dissatisfaction that you see.

You can say till you are blue int he face that the player base is just unhappy, or rude or looking for things to complain about.

But at the root cause of all of that...are issues like this. And it won't change until the dev team changes the way they do things.
