Raise your item level to 119 by completing a tutorial quest!

We just went from "FFXI will get no more content at all" to " content will continue, with a smaller dev team" and you want them to do something as massive an undertaking as increasing the level cap or something?

How about we leave the system as it is and not do any of that?

It's not like our discussions have any bearing on what the devs do. But yeah, let's leave the broken item level system in place.

Considering that the JP boards get about 5-6 replies from the dev team compared to our 1 i have to agree with that statement. I think there was even a board on the JP portion where they could vote for the next mount that was released.

would be nice if we got a say in this game since you know.... we pay the same subscription.

The developers are Japanese, they probably can't read/write english at all (or not well enough to not cause a PR disaster). They can interact as posters in Japanese as they want to, they can't do that here. They don't hate us, just there is a barrier.

We get the admins here passing some things along and translating it but that's all you're going to get.

I don't know, something tells me we english speaking folk are now the dominate players for this game...they may have to start listening to us. Just check the JP forums. Maybe I'm using fuzzy math here, but their general section is ALOT less active than ours right now, if I'm getting the gist of where their general is located in Japanese. I really do think most of the JP abandoned the game after PS2 support ended but maybe I'm wrong...

It doesn't work based on numbers, it never did. The JP players of XI and XIV were always a minority, it works the same for Korean games.

It's not about numbers it's just that the devs speak that language and so can interact fully to those players.
