Who wants to play FFXI?

im going to laugh so hard if it sells better than ffxiv

I wouldn't be surprised if it did. It's a pretty good deal, you get 9 years worth of content for only 20 bucks.

The guy who made the original final fantasy storylines and such left right and made a game for Wii with his own company and had nobuo uematsu do the music, i think it only came out for japan, kinda bummed, one wii game i'd play.

The Last Story is coming to NA from what I've been hearing. It'll most likely be shown at this year's E3, too.

I'm still playing XI but not because I think the game is any better than XIV.
It's because I'm not a veteran and still have lots of content to play through.

i would still play it if they didnt make the stupid "get away with capped fights/dungeons" decision, as well as the level cap increases. The game existed at lvl 75 a long time and no gear was useless, they managed to implement better gear or different gear in other ways then the easy-uncreative lvlincrease way.
I got some of my lvl 75 to the 80 cap, and i had fun in abyssea but only for a short time.

If they gave us new areas, perhaps even new jobs, no lvl cap increase and (like most older mmos that still are successeful) graphic improvements, i would still play it. But they destroyed it content-wise for me and never made it more applealing in the graphic sector either. Lazy way of making a lot of money! well, they got what they deserved. FFXI people left because of ffxiv, most of them left XIV again due to the big dissapointment, and only few got back to ffxi, most lost faith in SE as mmo developer.

Oh, and a lot of people who watned to play ffxiv couldnt even play it on lowest resolution, since ffxiv and ffxi offering close to no customisation in the graphic options or 2 different clients etc. etc...

GREAT JOB

Yeah...I can change 100x more graphical options in XIV than I can in XI.

There were 4100 people on my merged server last night. This is why people dislike these communities, always making things out worse than they are.

slightly more isnt 100X, AO is still so hardware hungry that you need 2-3 580 gtx sli for it to work acceptable smooth.

a lot of people in ffxi are dualboxing, almost everyone i knew was logged in with 2 characters, some had more even.
counting the many people who bazaar and don't play makes the 4100 a bit ... well...

On the other hand. the 4100 might have been your "merged" server. Not all servers were like that.
I've seen numbers on my "merged" server far below the 1000 constantly. Just because you have 4100 on your server doenst mean all servers are that way.

And i don't make things worse then they are. Its just a fact and the options in ffxiv are not really affecting performance until you use the "gerneral drawing quality" which ont he other hand makes things look very bad.
Other games have far more options that help with performance and still maintain a good all-over quality.

The options we currently have have NOTHING to do with an HD-next generation game.
They are far worse then most 10 year old games. Thats also a fact sorry. And a community that blindly defends everything doesnt help anyone. That's what i dislike.

I loved ffxi and played it since 2003 (or 2004 dont remember tbh). But still i don't defend every crap SE does and nobody should.
