no. who has a scythe! how dare they place a weapon similar to mine in that abomination of agame. if ff games r gonna go mmorpgs, they sure as hell better not charge 4 it. especially scince it has so many flaws to begin with. (you have to create a new character just to be on the same server as your friends)

and wow, i'm the last poster for the top 7 topics of this catagory. kinda weird.

This can be expected. New content is constantly being added, and they have server maitenance and such to take care of as well.

This is true.

This is not. Just make your first character on the same server as your friend's, and you'll never have to make a new one.

But it makes complete sense.

If you could maintain the same character and switch servers at will, you could capitalize off of the server's differing economy. Soon enough, everyone is going to start buying from the server who's prices are the least, and this will result in the price rising. They will then move to other servers, and the same thing will happen, until the process keeps repeating itself until every server is selling *wark* for more than it should.

I admit, I didn't like the idea at first either, but this reason, and more that I have thought of in the past but can't remember, are legitimate to the whole server issue in my opinion.

but surely there is an equilibrium. if the price goes up on one, they switch to a new one, so the price goes down in the first. it's just economic polotics, better know as capatilizim. so everyone gets filthy rich. that happens anyway.

I'm sorry, I just had to test it  :D
And yes, I'm a big fan of FFXI, although the game pisses me off extremely at times, I continue to play it for some reason ;_;

I'm a big fan myself, although yes, it is frustrating at times. Can you tell me your server and character? (Name, Main jobs leveled, etc.)

Mine is:

LegatoJoe
Ifrit Sever
Elvaan DRK54/WAR25
But my main thing right now is PLD23/WAR11, I think I'm done with the DRK thing.

FFXI is a really weird game. Most of the people who play it really hate it, but they can't stop playing it. Except for me, of course. I really didn't have a problem just quitting the game entirely.
