FFXI new expansion concerns

[Yoruichi4478]

I found out from a friend who's still fully playing 11 that it is getting this new expansion and 2 new jobs. I am concerned that this will be a death nail in 14 2.0. I am not happy that after all this time 11 is getting a new expansion and 2 new jobs. What does this mean for 14? Will this new stuff for 11 compromise 14 in any way?

I don't think it will. 2.0 will more than likely be out before this new expansion, they are still very early on in the development process. With that in mind, if 2.0 succeeds in all the right ways, then people will either subscribe to both FFXIV, and FFXI, or just simply ignore FFXI in consideration that FFXIV is everything "new" that they need right now.

I don't think it's going to make too much of an impact.

I think it's an attempt to get people to subscribe to both, I'm sure we'll hear about another discount for subscribing to both sometime between 2.0 release and the release of the new FFXI expansion.

@OP the funny thing is, that the peeps over in the XI forums think that XIV is getting the royal treatment just because it's a newer game. The argument you made goes both ways as far as this discussion goes. Also, XIV has more development staff than XI, and lastly isn't version 2.0 kind of considered a free expansion for us?

Aah, I stopped reading the ffxi forums when I pretty much stopped playing it. Just heard ppl complain 11 was getting too easy with the way you can get a capped job there now. Even heard the theory they were doing that to get ppl through the content asap because they were going to push 14 and kill 11 in a few years at the most. I can see it going both ways. Abyssea was what killed 11 for most so they were happy to try 14 out. Most ppl I knew from 11 who left it was because of Abyssea. I was just voicing my concerns and concerns I've seen voiced in ls chatter.
Interesting how ppl on FFXI forums think 14 is getting this royal treatment, thx for that info.

And what is this thread doing in Localization?

[Yoruichi4478]

I meant to put it in general but accidentally put it in here w/o thinking which section I was in.

Hello,

I have taken the liberty of moving this thread to the general discussion section since localization pertains specifically to feedback dealing with translation and issues dealing with it. I hope this discussion yields fruitful results. But in the future, please try to keep threads to their relevant sections. Thank you.

nothing to worry about. FFXIV has a team of 255 people working hard none stop to deliver 2.0
