    I hear the Game Servers were still running in japan even though everything was powered down.... No doubt Yoshi used the Man Powered Wheel to keep our data from reverting while the servers were safely shutdown either that or he recruited over 1400 marmots per server to keep them running.

    I thought they made the reasoning behind leaving the lights on a little longer rather clear. They understand that Final Fantasy XIV is more than just a game, but a place for its community to gather. Gamewise, yes, it's fruitless to level up if none of it's going to be saved. But for anyone who does any form of socializing in-game, it makes a little more sense.

    I don't see the harm in leaving the lights on for those who'd get any use out of it. You can't argue that it'll make ARR take longer to get here because they also clearly stated that after the final save, all support for the old structure is done and gone. They might be paying someone over there on the physical end to make sure the hardware doesn't catch on fire and to "turn it off and back on again" when needed, but as far as the dev team goes, they said no more patches, support, etc.

    A week? You're too kind!

    We didn't have specific dates, but anyone with half a brain has to of known this was coming at some point. They have to transfer the character data... It doesn't just magically appear on the new servers lol.

    @ OP it's not how many chars they have to transfer it's the fact they would have to transfer your character, if they did that and let you get more stuff and save your data again they would have to this every single time, over and over and over. So just DEAL WITH IT.

    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.
    "what he hell" why are you crying about it are a 10-17 year old that is still living at home with mom and dad you think you know every thing and your always right and you entitled to everything in 14 se has done a lot to this game the reason why they are considering the option of allowing us to play on the old servers if we all agree that what we do after the final save wont be ported is that they know it will take months of porting that saved stuff on nov 1 and we should be relly thank full that they arnt going to delet our chars which they could of done so grow up

    I wouldn't mind this it would be nice to venture into Vana'diel once more, but I don't think they will... I wonder if my LS is still going, it will have been about 2yrs off that game now.
