Returning player from FFXIV.

I just wish SE had a upgrade path that fit the FFXI players before closing it down.

FFXI isn't closing down. In fact they just announced new content that nobody was expecting.

Sadly it probably won't ever get the makeover it deserves, but at least we know it will continue to exist and receive updates.

I was surprised too. But it really does not sound like much and for how long?
I suppose that depends how long people stick around. FFXI got a pretty good shot in the arm from FFXIV people getting sick of the same old stuff and the new relic being horrible. Maybe that is why the change of heart.. But with little content and charging full fees I see some people leaving.. Cutting out xbox is going to hurt, some will get pc's.

Today you can probably get a PC at a garage sale that will run FFXI. People only aren't going to switch if they weren't very invested already to begin with.
