The reason why FFXI is having a second server merge is because they ruined everything that game was and the people who truly like that game quit and could not stand what the game became. Its not because it was a niche to begin with, it was because SE didn't know enough about their playerbase. Also the way FFXI is going they're operating costs are low and it is the only cash cow they have, you should do some research, the only reason why FFXI isn't going F2P is because FFXIV failed and people went back to FFXI. they had 12bn yen loss, most of it due to FFXIV and canceled titles, not FFXI, read there effing financial statement, they're a public company they have to publish it every year. be informed and don't make ignorant post about crap you obviously know nothing about.

And this reasoning is why ffxi having a second server merger and SE is losing money : /

But thanks for staying on topic

Ignorant post is ignorant

FFXI has long since payed off its development costs and has been a source of revenue for years, merging servers doesn't mean its losing them money....... it means that they are not making as much money, but the cost of keeping servers and minor content expansions are WAY below what they take in on subscriptions. They couldn't shut down ffxi right now because its still a source of profits, so please go read the recent financial statements and ACTUALLY read where the losses came from. The majority of the losses last year were from xiv and canceled titles that were in later development stages.

How do you lose 12billion yen on a game that probably only cost like a million yen to make?

SE is too busy implementing auto attack to make "adding stuff" a high priority.

If they add stuff, it should be a low priority.

Yeah dunno what this "job system", "ifrit battle", "r50/30 Dungeons", "quest hubs", "new synth" recipes crap is all about in the letters.

Add more dyes please. you will keep new players.

Amen. This is why I hope they reconsider their plans to take freedom out of the Armoury system.

How do you become the new "Gifthorse" in 3 days?

WOW
this isn't ad ADD STUFF topic but asking SE to look at the ADD STUFF topivcs with a more open mind. That is what this topic is about. I listed suggestion based on other poist as examples of stuff to look at with an open mind.

The point of this thread is asking SE to do more "why nots" over "why"

This isn't a useless thread. And kam you was never opn topic. Since all you did was berate me over "making a useless thread based on what ppl already suggested"

Sorry if my thread wasn't very clear. But a simple asking for understanding will serve everyone better then ASSUMING, its just another "add stuff" thread.

So simply put
1 no this isn;t a add stuff topic
2 this topic is a SE look at everyone suggestion over again and ask youself "how many people will play if this gets added" topic

They aren't taking the freedom out of the armory system, we will have classes(what we have now) that will always be able to be cross classed and easily switch between classes with the weapon. We will also have a job system, these will be unique and great for party play. Can't wait. And the OP is nonsense move on nothing to see here lol
