Classic Server

[Alhanelem]

They should just lock this thread.

If you really really want a server that's frozen in time with no new content (becuase that would destroy the classicness of it!), search around on the internet and you'll find options. Illegal options, but most of the people who want this badly enough don't care about that.

Aside from that, there is really nothing stopping you from just teaming up with like minded people to do things the way you feel like doing them.

More new / low levels players enjoying that awesome old insane grind !

Very few gamers in today's age would be able to tolerate the level of grind the game had in the early days. Talk to anyone who plays literally any other MMO and tell them about FFXI and how the grind used to be and nearly all of them would tell you "that sounds terrible."

As i've said before, I would totally be cool with them adding a feature to arbitrarily sync yourself to any level you'd like. That would even be useful in some cases, even if you're not specifically interested in running old content the old way. That's all they really need to do, then you can just sync yourself to level 75 and knock yourself out, everyone's happy and they don't have to waste resources redeveloping an old version of the game (plus you still get your conveniences like home point teleports, etc)
