If I may use a bit of vernacular, dude, that sucks.

My brother wanted to go back to FFXI at one point, they told him all his characters are gone. He got disgusted and promised never to go back, even if they somehow managed to “find” his characters.

He put way too much time into that game, like an average of 8 hours per day for 10 months. Ouch.

Well, hopefully they’ll realize that allowing people to come back to their old characters is a good thing (and I honestly have no idea why they don’t since obviously they’ve kept our characters) and won’t keep the “welcome back” bullcrap as a limited time only deal but rather as regular policy. That is, if I ever come back to FFXI.

Most games seem to have content gaps that need to be filled in. That’s the late thirties in City of Heroes, although Issue 5 should be filling that.

Who knows, maybe FFXI will fill in that gap, and you can get back to those characters.

I look forward to reading what you have to say about FFXI. I was an FFXI player (level 50 BRD/WHM and a lvl 37 THF/NIN) but quit out of spite of things to do. I honestly tried to get to 60 since it seemed 60+ was the level where most of the content was at, but I couldn’t muster up enough willpower to trudge through the farming and pick-up groups anymore. I still like reading about it, however. I feel sad that I didn’t get to experience many things it had to offer, but I just stopped logging into it. No sense in paying for something you don’t play, right?
