  1. So, FF11 stans, we love you, and you're great people but you really need to understand that FF11 is the second least played of all the final fantasies with FF2 being a close last.

    Vana'diel is incompatable with Etheirys, lore wise. One is a world where the gods made man, the other is a world where man made all the gods. There's no real way to integrate the both without it being some kind of cheap.

    References are fine, do those, but man, people don't play this game for Eureka.

  2. I would love to see this happen. Maybe a large time jump from the events of 11 to 14. It would be nice to see the zones again. The lore though seems like a barrier. But like you said a alternate version of the FF11 world would be fun.
    I’m not sure it should be like Eureka. I think the 14 people would in general reject after a short time.
    I think this conversation points to how much FF11 players want that world back. Mixing it with 14 is probably not the best route to get there, a remake I think would the best path forward.

  3. I actually restarted my XI account for a month after 10 years, and all my characters and gear were still there. Had no clue how to macro on it anymore and forgot you could only charge jobs in your mog. Did not fare well at all and forgot you had to create a party rather than jump on duty finder. Miss Beast, Pup, and Thief the most and the ability of sub jobs. It was a fun nostalgic month before I canceled the subscription again.

  4. I'd come back for a Vana'diel experience. I would also like to see a good open world experience. I only got to start of Endwalker, never experienced Eureka or Bozja(sp?), so never had good open world experience in FF14. So a good open world set in Vanadiel would bring me back from WoW Dragonflight for a bit.

  5. I think lore wise it would make sense for Vana'diel to be a shard of the source, like The First, but The Eleventh XD
    As a FFXI player from 2004, I would love to revisit the beloved world of Vana'diel in any way with a new adventure!

  6. Make Vana'diel a shard, but theres a problem in this. FFXIV's world tends to be very limited, barely any enterable buildings, so if anything its going to be a lazy prop with one or two main hubs. So I can understand why some wouldn't want it to be apart of FFXIV. They really need to start working on making the world more alive or work on their servers to have more oompf to get us a more open world with more sprawling settlements.

  7. I don't want an FFXIV version of Vana'diel, I want FFXI-2. While I will be a Windurst Mithra forever, what I want most isn't the world, it's the style of combat, the gearing system, and the job system that didn't enforce roles.

  8. My thinking is that if they do anything, it would be as a Shard.

    With that said, Yoshi P, in an interview at a recent Game conference, did name drop Vana'deil as something he might one day bring into FFXIV. He then swiftly changed the subject.

    Thanks, YoshiP. Love you too, you complete and utter tease.

  9. Given the FFXI crossover event we've had in XIV already, my headcanon would be:

    1 – Acknowledge Vana'Diel as a shard of Etheriys.

    2 – Merge the subs and give XI a graphical (and maybe a system/subsystem) upgrade on par with XIV, but leave the full experience of XI intact for people to enjoy.

    3 – For a final update to XI, hold a massive crossover event where this time the WoL from XIV comes to Vana'Diel and we learn that our PC from XI is their shard.

    4 – My utterly unhinged headcanon: Make the definitive end of XI's story a willing rejoining of Vana'Diel with Etheriys. Might not have to actually shut down the servers but a firm end. Then when XIV's story ends, transition them both into a single player experience.

  10. First off, what is going on with that inventory? You legitimately have 1 slot free. That is making an ocd person loos their crap 😛.

    Back to the topic, I'd love to see 11 & 14's subs combine so that way you could nostalgia check it out. I'm not paying Square extra. I already had to buy a ps5 because they're pretty much a first party at this point. If I wanted to play either FF game that comes out this year I had to buy a ps5. Or wait until….???
