And 5 months after all this the game was released in America. By the time we finally got to play the game, all of this had already happened.So you joined FFXI after the second expansion pack. Let's have a look at the first year of FFXI.

Sounds like speculation, because i haven't heard about them releasing player housing in 2.2.
On the topic of the OP, quit if you want, i don't care, and i seriously doubt many do care. If you have to ask other people for reasons why to play, rather than knowing for yourself, then you probably shouldn't be playing.
How the game is now is how it will always be, just with more instances. There will always be this horrible casual token system in place and weekly lock outs. After reading that interview with 4Gamer. Yoshida couldn't really handle hardcore games, so he isn't going to make anything even remotely close to that. If standing around town waiting for the DF to do some faceroll easy instance with no real open world content is something that doesn't seem interesting to you. Then this game is not for you.
somehow the more i read the OP the more i think he asking thsi game turned into another F2P crap.. just look at those [b]"bold"[b] wordings.. =.=
sure what justify 15$? but wait i pay 10$ anyway :P
Pretty much they as close to a pay to win game as it can possibly get while still feeling like they accomplished something.
why are u asking people to persuade/give reasons for u to continue playing? Just quit?
Seriously. We get it. Some players have done everything and are bored. We seriously get it. Another thread listing off "Boring" features isn't going to change the fact that we get it. There is a small percentage of the player base with nothing to do. OK. If you seriously have every possible job to 50 then you've consumed the content faster than they could ever possibly provide it.
Quit.
Come back after 2.4.
Poof - more content.
a 6 month sub for this game is typically how much it costs me to go out one night, always amusing that other people need to justify the cost.
6 months of sub for me is equal to many things but as far as entertainment 4-5 rpg's or roughly 250hrs or more of gameplay via sales of used games or steam sales or bargain bin hunting or the age old books which 12 of them are typically about 150hrs. hard to compair that to 2hrs a month or 12hrs of gameplay total after the initial 15hrs or so to get to end game so let's be kind and say 30hrs. (note leveling times are based on pre fate nerf where you would get 2-4 levels an hour during the more Grindy areas due to quest gaps)
