That is a prime example of what not to do.

Many things that should be taken from XI... abysea is the last thing that should be.
It was the 3 years of no new endgame content from 2007 to 2010 that caused the game to lose subs. When Abyssea came out I saw a lot of people came back to FFXI because they wanted to finally level up their characters past 75. Once empty LS that had like 2-5 people on it was full again at about 35 people when abyssea was out. There was a surge of returning players when abyssea was launched due to the fact we had no new content for 3 years, that is what caused a lot of people to quit.
