No I wont go back. In my eyes I beat the game, spent years playing, thousands of hours, and my friends are gone and moved on. We will all meet again in FF14 though. It will be a glorious day. ic0n Azumanga Daioh signature ftw.
Best case senario is they will lower the price for FFXI (possibly to a $1 for the content id?) or make it F2P with paid episodic updates (ala Guild Wars). I had to log on last night just to stop people from killing themselves b/c a whole lot of people just came to the realization that everything they did in FFXI was for nothing. Not entirly true, but for a game that it has been their life for 3, 4, 5 years this news came as a gut check.
"ic0n Azumanga Daioh signature ftw." -- and thank you
I reupped to FFXI tonight... Content ID's look to currently be 1.00 each.... I saw 12.95 base with 1 character, 13.95 2 characters, 14.95 3 characters, etc.
I don't know if there will be carry over from FFXI to FFXIV but I don't know that FFXIV will release until after FF XIII, which by the way still has a December 2010 release date... So we could be waiting a long time for FFXIV
