Legacy Player Punishment

[Myre]

With the new character transfer rules and the limits on gil, it is now safe to say that SE has snubbed legacy players.

Limiting gil I can understand but to limit it to 1M? What is that accomplishing considering current players, after just 2 months have well above that.

Do not start telling me how you have no gil and are poor, because that is how it always is. Some players have gil, and some spend all they ever get.

I busted my rump in 1.0 to make my gil. I could have lived with the 3M limit, but 1M is telling legacy players to go get p*ssed.

This does not even consider the fact that I cannot play with my kids because they went to a new server and there is still no legacy transfers to new servers.

Must be time to gather the kids and move to a new game entirely since I am forced to start over no matter what. I was hoping to join them at some point but SE has bowed to the whiners who say legacy players would kill new servers.

Why can't they transfer to your server? Is it locked? Is there another Legacy server you all could transfer together?

[Myre]

I am just one. They have their FC and friends now. All their friends will not move just to accommodate me.

oh damn...

I saw punishment and was hoping for something like "Go sprinkle uncooked rice on the floor in the corner and kneel on it with your arms stretched out to the sides until I tell you that you can get up!!"

This won't solve anything, all you need to do is buy up a bunch of stuff before you transfer (Check prices on your new server before hand). Then sell the stuff over there! Sure you are not taking gil with you, but items that have value and can be sold (Materia for example) for an equivalent value. Besides, gil is useless, you can't buy anything worthwhile currently. Darklight gear is as good as any crafted gear unless you start dropping millions on a single piece, then they are only marginally better.

Unless they changed this its 1Million per Character and 2Million per Retainer so up to 5Million

RMT, BOTers, Gil sellers, Hackers, Cheaters, Exploiters, third party toolers.... etc, you can blame them for influencing SE to regulate a MMORPG that's suppose to be "the best mmo in the world" or just blame SE(Yoshi-P and crew) for being over protective and patronizing us how to enjoy the game we helped test & develop. Either way, the company-game is flawed very hard.

You're gil value is not the same as other servers. SE has a much better understanding of each servers economics than what we do, and even if they don't it's a good excuse to give. So, limiting the amount of Gil someone from another economy can bring over is understandable, while still being a hassle. They could have setup an exchange rate but choose to go with a blanket 1M cap. Go invest in assets that you can resell. Think bigger picture, individually we are a very tiny fraction of that picture alone. I'm willing take a wide guess that a lot of people who are transferring don't even have 1M gil.

Or you can just keep thinking that SE is just out to get you and screw you over specifically. Whatever works. I dunno, either way it isn't difficult to make Gil in this game even with limited play time.

Wish you the best of luck!

Really? Really??

We had months upon months of Legacy players rubbing it in to everyone else's face that they had SE's eternal favor.

I really didn't expect this to happen.

I am so disappointed in humanity today.
