I don't mind the world being able to buy everything... I sell part of it to them >.>

But I understand what the basis of your complaint is. We all get nostalgic from time to time about what the game was like in 05-07 era. (It was easier for some than others yes)... But you can only hope that SE continues to try to deliver content that will satisfy.

I have been playing only for 2 years so you guys have me beat. FF11 is at times fun, easy, hard, and annoying as hell. It is just the way the game is. It is still fun enough for me to play.

Want a challenge?? Grab some crappy players and do something tough. If you feel it is to easy. Make it harder.
So true, I do stuff all the time with new'ish players and that makes the game feel like it use to for me.

FFXI was ever a challenge to begin with...? I think the only hard thing that has ever existed in this game is getting people to gather on time with proper warps/maws/reraise. That my friend, is a challenge.

To answer the OP's question, old content like Nyzul, Einherjar (yus), Limbus, ect, are being upgraded for the level 99 cap.

You'll see new challenges, but will it be challenging? That depends on how good of a player you are.

This revamping of those old things sounds more like: Timesink all the things!!!

I enjoy most players theres the ones we all cant stand on vale new big thing is steal proc'd mobs in dyna if ya get 2, sucks but hey no against rules just ***play. I enjoy helping people who want it if they willin to learn it. We got a guy on valefor pink kanagi nin that just shouts to buy stuff wont help doesnt wanna learn and he'll tell ya that lol but most new people pretty cool. I rage at the experienced players who make a mule and ask for help actin like a new player cause they dont wanna do stuff lol but hey it happens

There will always be challenges. Just depends on how well prepared you are and who you play with. That makes it easy or hard to get things done.

Not a QQ thread so trollers kiss my ***.

With the shear ease of everything in this game do you think with any possible updates it will become more of a challange?

Lets face it this has gotten so mindlessly easy its borderline pathetic, for how many months have we been able to solo gods, solo dyna, hell we low man vw mobs with 4-5 people on farming.

Just hoping for something more of a challange that puts skills to test vs throw 500 bodies at it and you'll eventually win or i can solo the world. Dev threads just seem mor elike nerf all the things.


What ya think?

Try fighting
this, then see how your ego feels. There's challenge in FFXI still, it's just that nowadays not EVERYTHING is so damned challenging anymore ... and frankly, that's a welcomed change for many.

Maybe its just because you're all so awesome now. Why not start leveling a level 1 job again without books in all the original areas. Who wants to have some Valkurm fun?

I don't think the problem here is challenge , I think it is how ppl were doing things for almost 8 years then suddenly things changed, and the most notable change here was how rare items use to be to items now, like how much time did it take you to get a ridill back in the day ? Now 2 days and u have any wpn with a nice and easy 2-4 on it, hauticlare And shamshir? And back in the day when you see someone with e body/ ridill or a af2 head rdm/Dalmy on you can tell how much work and time they spent on that job cuz there is no way in hell u get that gear in 3 days like empys and many other stuff are now , but now the whole universe have all jobs at 99 and all empys just no one is like "special" like before.

I agree, people should challenge themselves more. Put limit on yourselves to make things fun. (Kinda like a low level challenge on a console game)
