Final fantasy xiv 1.23b server relaunch?

[Carin-Eri]

Would it even feel the same?

I mean, I wasn't there (obviously) but from what I understand it was something you really had to be there to experience at the time. I doubt a reworked classic server would have the same feel.
Not to mention that one of the most 'famous' elements of 1.0 was the way it was brought to a close, which is something that isn't really possible to recreate - at least, not in terms of the emotion and impact that demonstrably (as per various YouTube videos) came with that event.

Would it even feel the same?

No. It would not. Part of what made it work, was the people. It's simply not going to be the same.

WoW has classic servers, other games like Everquests do fresh start servers and the like, but none of those either, are the same as the original experience was.

It's community was what made that version shine in ways that cannot be recaputured. Was there fun content (imo) that was in 1.0 that doesn't exist in the current game? Yes. But resurrecting it? No, it isn't worth it for the devs, the stockholders, or really, even the players.
