What a Year to begin and to sepeculate
It's the brand New Year and I am very excited about Patch 7.2
I will say again I still love Dawn-Trail It is one of my favorite Main Story quests that put it close to my heart. And it's very ok if you're not interested in the story.
Some News on FFXI
alot of things
Around the Fall, the FFXI team sent out a small survey, and here are the results!! click here!!!
FINAL FANTASY XI Producer/Director
Yoji Fujito wrote a letter regarding 2025 and what they are doing
3 things are in development
Here's the cut-down version
Expanded solo play options
A lot of people wanted to play it solo since trying to party with people is getting much harder. Just like the FFXIV duty finder, they trying to improve the player experience with trust and taking a look at how they will find a way to form parties on battle content. Maybe like forming parties on the story dungeons and end-game dungeons
Autogroup improvements
Just like PF finder? They want to make a system more easier to include everyone in playing together.
Revitalizing existing content and character leveling adjustments
They trying to cut down the amount quests that will need to be upgraded to your equipment and cut down the number of missions that feel too long to complete so that way it will make it easier for the players to move forward to the end-game.
Let's not forget FINAL FANTASY XIV's "Echoes of Vana'diel"
We are still in the 1st part of the FFXI alliance raid and I am very excited to see how the story will conclude in the most climactic way.
So yeah I am very very excited to see what sort of update will be implemented in FFXI. But I am damn sure not gonna sucker myself getting it again wrapping myself in limbo lol...

I was reading somewhere online that 7.3 is the ending story and when the next patch rolls both 7.4 and 7.5 will slowly gear us towards the Next expansion. This means 2025 will give us 3 patch updates.
Hopefully, the story will open up some form of time loop dimension travel like in TMNT 3 when the ninja Turtles go back in time landing themselves in the SHogun period. Yoshi-p mentioned this last summer at the Japan Paris expo. Hopefully, all this will come in Fruition soon this year.
The spoiler questions that need to be answered at the end of 7.1
Who is the real queen?
Where's the mom lol?
Are you the father? lol
