FF11 mobile cancelled?

The biggest problem I see with XI is getting started. The way you set up an account, install it and log in isn't so much archaic, as it's just bad. The interface is poor even for it's time.

They should make the FFXIV launcher into the SE launcher and let people install XIV, XI and maybe even DQX (like that would ever happen) right from the launcher.

Given that Nexon had their hand on it, I'd figure we are glad they dropped the title.

Anything they touch gets turned into a microtransaction mess.

It's definitely far too confusing, and that's one of the things that needs fixing about Final Fantasy XI. I really liked and miss many things about PlayOnline. I feel like it could have become Square Enix's version of the Steam storefront. But it ended up becoming sectioned off and not further connected to the greater Square Enix online space. I really regret what could have been.

Square Enix need a more cohesive online unity where all their online content is interconnected and easily accessible without confusion.

Part of me wishes they would relaunch their online store as an all new version of PlayOnline, something similar to Steam that allows for easy login to Square Enix games like XI and XIV with no complications or troubles.

It's maddening just how obtuse the launcher is, having 3 different IDs and going through at least 2 login screens just to play the game is insane.

I would be very down for that.
I'm interested in playing FF11 for the story, but not enough to slog through a game that grindy, and pay both monthly and for each expac.

It goes on sale every once in a while. I know I picked up the complete collection for 6 bucks on their Black Friday sale. If you want, follow their social media and they announce welcome back campaigns and sales whenever they're up.

Speaking of, another Return Home to Vana'diel Campaign starts on December 25th and goes to January 4th.

Welp, looks like I've got my time for when I'll be trying FFXI.

I figure I'd might as well try it before it dies and then I'm sad I never played it. Whenever that will be. I won't play it regularly like FFXIV though.
