I am glad to be done with Final Fantasy Groundhog Day with zero game economy, but I'm not sure why they are going to do this. It's bad enough that they leave us out to dry. They gotta put salt in the wound too by hyping the end of the game over at #2 FF MMO? Gee, thanks. Gosh I just want to resub to FFXIV to experience the celebration! of the ending of my current MMORPG.... yeah...

Remember when I said that it would be SE and not the playerbase who would end FFXI? No, none of you do because you don't care, but I said it time and again. I just never conceived that they would end it prematurely under the guise that they lack replacement dev kits and then dance on our graves in their other FF MMO. I for one will not reward them by resubbing to XIV after the day this game goes offline because of a lack of dev support. I too will return to console games(with bitterness) and say goodbye to MMOing for the most part. I still try to get back into STO once in awhile, and some are trying to get me into EQ but it's just so unfun to grind from level 1...

But hey, I hope you guys have a great time during your celebration over at XIV. I'm sure you'll get some FFXI-ish reward or some damn thing. Just remember while you grind your DoHs for no real reason besides melding, and you replace all of your gear every other month or 3, and spend all gil you made off of materia on materia, it will never be as flipping awesome as the day you set foot in Vana'diel, and that is what makes FFXI #1 FF MMO!
