Either way, what I am curious about is if they continue this trend then once the next MMO comes out a year later they will begin yet another MMO, since they stated they want only 3 MMOs up at a time due to manpower then is that the final days of FFXI?

Finally, I personally would love an MMO set in a more futuristic setting, or a steam punk one.
they said they want ffxi to last too 11years which pretty much mean 2years from now they may shut it down or the price lower down to 6$ then it be shut down at some point.

i don't see ffxi lasting very long if they don't shut down the ps2 version.
