After playing FFXI for a few weeks, cant wait for Trusts!

[Ruf]

The great XI-slayer, Abyssea, came out in 2010. This was technically not a full expansion, but was 5th in line. If you're not up on your XI history, this was an incredibly divisive expansion and turned a lot of people off from the game. Seekers of Adoulin was their 5th real expansion, and came out in 2013, but this was already well after the damage was done.

Trusts were introduced in December of 2013. They are very much there to fill in the void for the diminishing player base. Even in its heyday, it could be painfully slow for certain classes to get to max level and getting missions done could be a chore finding people to help out. These days it's practically a ghost town until you get into end-game content or one of the hubs (Jeuno, Adoulin, etc).


I really enjoy the trust system in XI and appreciate what it has allowed me to do, but I'm not really seeing the need or reasoning to bring it into XIV at this point. The game is still quite populated, I don't personally consider DPS queues to be that bad, and IMO this community doesn't need more help becoming even more anti-social in game. :X I don't feel like it's really worth the effort at this point - especially if it's going to be so limited.

There is no XI-slayer like you claim, it is not because you quit and disliked abyssea that it is the case for everyone.As far as my understanding about you and final fantasy 11,yea no comment, but I will say this, FF11 is well alive and popular. IMO it is a better game than ffxiv and FFXI will more than likely stay better over Ff14 and that even after shadowbringer.
