It should not be that hard to migrate character data to the new system. People that play want to keep playing. I log in and fish in my spare time, or level some jobs, ie make progress in the game. That is completely pointless if you're just going to wipe it. It's like playing FF1 half way through, then the battery in your cartridge dies and you have to start over.

There has to be another way.
Do you even really have any clue what they have to do to migrate the character data? I am going to venture a guess and say NO.

To expect them to migrate your data -while it is still updating because you are still playing- is impossible. There has to be a stopping point for your data so they can port your data (everyone's data) over to 2.0.

Them trying to port your ever updating data because you wont stop playing is like downloading a game that continues to grow in size faster than you can download it.

Not going to happen; if you aren't happy about it: Too bad.
