Ffxi ending

[Sonicblue]

I have a question about this game ending will it only be playable on iPad or can we still able to play it on PC

[Shirai]

As said by SE, they will keep the game up for PC after Q1 2016 for as long as enough people keep playing it.

You can still play it on PC the cell phone version won't even use the same servers.

Mobile version is a completely separate environment for the game with its own servers. The current incarnation is only losing console support. PC support will continue as long as it is worthwhile. Mobile version is starting the game completely over, and releasing in regions and languages that were not previously supported.

I don't think it's for "ipad" specifically, rather ios and android devices (phones).

The game isn't ending (on PC), only major content updates are ending.

No your pet gerbil isn't going to die, it's just never going to be fed ever again. It doesn't need food to live!

There's enough existing content in FFXI to keep a player busy for years. So your gerbil analogy would be more like an obese over-fed gerbil that could actually use a diet anyway.

I'm farming 3000 riftcinders for my Empy AG. I get around six a month, so thats five hundred months of content for me.

Also there will be some grand-finale content at the end of RoV, which will hopefully add more long-term content rewards/challenges to keep people happy after the updates finally stop.

Also a person could just, you know, play the game and have fun in Vanadiel without needing new stuff all the time. Like some sort of wise gerbil who watches his weight and does Pilates and stuff.

Please don't say you're going to spend the next 41 years farming Riftcinders...

I'll probably hand it down so my children and grandchildren can finish building my empy after I'm gone lol.

This is simply not true, 99% of the content is not worth doing at all.

This game is easier than ever to cap out on, once the new content dries up so will the playerbase (what's left of it).

Have any of you played any ubisoft games? They do this kind of thing too, they can't shut an older title down for the rage it will cause so instead they just ruin it to the point you don't want to play it anymore so they can then close it down and make you all move to the sequel.
