Rank 14 is the final rank for veteran rewards.

I wouldn't be surprised if it changes to a repeat log in campaign like FFXI

I don't think I'd mind that. They're actually pretty effective and very rewarding in XI. Although... it does sprout out the concern that people may feel the need to have multiple characters if it weren't limited. Something that is a no-brainer in XI that no one really complains about, but is something people would feel like they've been betrayed for here despite no additional cost lol. It's kind of like examining the frailty of youth today compared to the general mentality of the old. "It's unfair!" vs "suck it up, Nancy"

It'd make sense to go that route though, and for it to be almost a carbon copy in reward potential if they do. With Squadrons about to go live, it could just take the place of the Trust NPCs for point expense in the future. They're likely to allow for lore-related NPCs to be made available if that were to be a thing, like class/job quest ones.

In french the message say "* Le rang 14 est actuellement le plus élevé.".
Litterally "Rank 14 is actually the highest", so who know.
btw I don't care about it I never use them.

To add to that matter in the german translation it says "Veteranen-Belohnungsrang 14 ist aktuell der höchste Rang." which translates to "Rank 14 is the latest rank for veteran rewards."
I highly doubt they will stop adding veteran rewards for good, this is most likely a case of poor wording.

I'd rather them just add these to mog station, it's essentially the same thing but cheaper. The outfits, at least.

Really? No one else is going to say it?

They're ending it at rank 14 and 1400 days because this is Final Fantasy 14.

Woops. Must've missed your post :X

To be fair, it wasn't specifically in this thread. It was back on page three of the the other thread about the same topic. No worries though. xD

I don't have the specific information... But, logically the OP isn't telling the whole truth. We are getting "one" more vet reward (Rank 14... funny that) and then they'll cease making them in favor of adding some other type of item (likely cash shop) to the game. Honestly, this is fine. 1,440 days is literally four years of of subscription time. I can't imagine anyone who joins "now" will care enough to stay subscribed longer than that.

Once you've reached the halfway point of the game's life (unknown), no new players will ever get any of the newer rewards.

That's kind of the disturbing part. SE is indicating the game's already half-way to shutting down the servers for good. XI ran for 14 years before they started excluding some of the platforms (and I'm pretty sure it's still going for PC). But they don't plan on keeping this game around another four years?

This has nothing to do with the game dying. This is about simple logic. Are you seriously telling me if you started playing the game today you wouldn't be discouraged to learn that you have to pay for four years of subscription time to get some vanity items that are all basically worthless? It would be better for the developers to put the items that would have potentially been in the veteran reward program into the cash shop where they could make extra money, promotional events, or even just as in game rewards since people keep screaming for those.
