    You can get XI and all expansions for an absolutely ridiculous price now, pocket change really. I suggest to simply find out yourself, it's well worth the investment.

    XIV had potential when they first showed their design intentions, their early vision of what the game would be. There's very little left of that now. XIVs "uniqueness" is that they managed to stand still in their development when everyone else moved forward.

    Problem is XI is not the same game at all anymore. If it was I'd go back, but the level cap raise and addition of Abyssea made sure I'd never consider returning.

    Abyssea spoonfeeds you gear, which I guess is the new standard MMO gamers expect and the level cap raise just changes the whole game, it's subjective if you find it good or bad, but in general it's bad because it changed what made FFXI....FFXI the past 8 years.

    I hope that's not a serious question.

    Yea, Elexia and Firon pretty much nailed it. The whole game is Abyssea now. All the content and rewards from it that came before it are now obsolete. The level caps on CoP were removed from what I've heard (lol fuckin really?!?!?!?) They added a game-shark potion (again, lol....) SE completely destroyed what FFXI was.
