Do you want to play after Character Data Save?

[Quesse]

do not want.

[Magnesium02]

Looks like an overwhelming 'no'.

I probably would play to the 11th in case they do some fun stuff in the last 1 1/2 weeks, but probably not much more than that. I'd also use the last little time to do screenshots and videos of cutscenes and stuff

[Viritess]

I'll atleast log in to see how many melds i can get on my Darksteel hauby. and if its more then 2 i will kick myself..



..Then show up here full of rage that it won't be saved! RAWR!

j/k Will be neat to try though. Theres positives to having a non save period. All those crazy setups for bosses or dungeons you always wanted to try but couldn't because everyone else wanted a "sure" win...nows the time!

From the sound of it, namely

The grand finale is right around the corner, as the Seventh Umbral Era descends on Eorzea.

it seems like there'll be some live event after the 1st, most likely one where things go really nuts (meteors smashing the countryside, randomly killing people and mobs, garlean forces slaughtering anyone leaving the city, heck maybe even meteors smashing down in Ul'dah killing people). This stuff would be effectively unplayable beyond just a fun vision of what's happening, and when you see Ul'dah get blown up in the opening cinematic, you can think "I was *right there* when that meteor crashed!"

/wishfulthinking

Edit - Oh, and if there's no event, then no I won't play. No point.

I think, if anything, I'd go exploring and look for places around Eorzea that I haven't been to yet.

I guess I'm one of the few who will keep playing after the data save... probably every day but not so late into the night as I do now. ^^;

It will be a fun time to do things like take many more scenic pictures, do goofy things like running the dungeons in reindeer suits, or just sit around and chat with the LS (whomever else is around) about what awaits in 2.0.

After save date, SE should give us all relics and 5 melds and make GMs summon primals around town

[Serige]

I honestly don't want the servers to close down as they start up the alpha testing on this game (its one an the only one i enjoy) an i wanted to get my war classes up to max an then focus on my DOH an DOL's i would suggest keeping them open through all the alpha an beta testing since its only open too japan for the time being I personally want to beable to get the stuff that's still in this version before 2.0 comes out i would have to miss out on anything here before it goes too 2.0

[neorei]

I bet there will still be people raging why they're achievements or characters wasn't saved.


but my vote is no, i want ARR NAO.

Just started on Guild Wars 2.
Torchlight 2 is out mid next month.
Borderlands 2 is out a week or so later.

I think I can wait a while before Final Fantasy XIV 2.

Also, that's a lot of 2's.
