the end of final fantasy XI?????Follow
I skimmed (sorry), but just wanted to point one thing out. The Exc.Director (I think) was quoted in an interview to have said, that as long as there are players playing and enjoying the game, they will keep developing the game. So I don't think that FFXI is done any time soon.
Hades kinda sucks. High prices compared to the server I came from, and a lot of the people are dumbasses.(like high school -1)

While I don't think the items and the like will cause any "end" to FFXI for time to come, due to the facts already stated, there is a new game they are working on currently, that will be online, Square-Enix that is. It is currently a Japanese Beta called "Fantasy Earth: Ring of Dominion."
Personally all these EXP boosts (EXP rings, EXP bonus while soloing EP-DC, and the overall less EXP to 75) are ways for SE to *possibly* raise the cap in the furute; in case they decide that they need to do so.
That which exists in creation without my knowledge, exists without my consent.

I don't know... just try to enjoy the game as much as possible before any thing happens. Then if it does, it does. We can't do nothing about it unless your the creater of it or part of the F.F. XI Online team/crew. Just saying. Thanks...

The recent additions of the chariot and empress ring are great for people like me who have not been playing the game long and bad for those players you worked hard to get where they are today.
But has anyone why after two years or so that suddenly se has virtually given us an exp bonus items?

They have done this becuase of the constant whining of players for more solo capability. The idea is that you might use these items,along with your NPC buddy to make a little exp off EM and Toughs when your waiting for a group.
SE is listening. They gave us level 20 smn battles,blue mage,now a little more solo capability. Why complain when square is repsonsive.

It's been over 2 years since I stoped playing EQOA, they never had many people playing it, there's about 30 thousand users for it right now and they still have the servers on. So I say FFXI has like another decade or more since it's been out for 5 years and 100,000s still play.

The only reason SE is offering alternate and new means of gaining exp is due to other MMOs, not because they want more people at end-game. SE sees people leaving FFXI for games like WoW where earning exp doesn't mean sitting in a town seeking for 3 hours, get to a camp with a party and then disband after an hour. Of course SE doesn't want to make things too easy, so as you see we get exp options here and there, but they are still tightly limited in use in how long they are effective and how much you can earn. Most people I've spoken to who have left for other games agree that its still not enough to entice them back.
On the other hand, I've also seen several people returning after playing wow for a while cause they got bored of it.
Speaking for myself, I bought Guildwars a few weeks ago and I love it but I still think FFXI is the 'better' game when it comes to interacting with other people (not that I do interact alot, I'm kind of a loner).
As far as for FFXI shutting down I do agree with most people here, it will not happen very soon.
I think it has two reasons.
People want to be able to solo more. Xp cap of 1k is not that great when your hopefully making 15-20k per xp session in a party.
Next thing is, I think SE wants to help people along to 75 where they are making most their content directed towards.
