Im bored revising, im going to check this every 5 mins or so.

Anyway onto topic, what would you do? Personally i think i would spend more time doing much more productive things rather than just finding a different MMORPG. (this is the only one ive played)

Same as you prolly Minus. TBH I think I'd be somewhat happy... I really would. I would find something else to do. Move with life. Simple as that.

I've tried other MMOs and they just don't cut it. By the time FFXI is done, I'll be married with kids. Even if FFXI doesn't die in the next 5 years, I don't believe in parenting and MMOs. :P

I will boot up the PS3 and play FFX-2, FFXII, and FFXIII. Then I will move to the multitude of other gaming options.
But, as for MMORPGs, I wouldn't play any other unless it was attached to FF.

Well I sometimes play WoW so I would probably just move onto that.

I love video games so I'd just find another game to play.

It's just it really really feels like FFXI is controlling me. I love this game. It's amazing, but once it shuts down it's like, wow this is exactly what I need to finaly move on. Only way to help me finaly get over the addiction of FFXI. Nothing good going on in FFXI or anything at all. It's just nothing but drama and stress. The game is suppose to be fun and exciting. If you play too much and get addicted it becomes your second life and it becomes extremely hard to let go.

So if FFXI shuts down. So be it. Thank you SE.

Probably find a new mmo (although that would be very, very difficult) because I am socially inept irl and have no life.

You may want to try taking a break... just cancel your content ID and go do something else! I took a couple month break a while back and it was just enough to change my perspective on FFXI.

I've done that. Forcefully and nature took it's tole too. Always ended up coming back ASAP or nearly breaking down. There are things in FFXI too that are keeping me on. Specific things... If I lose FFXI I lose my connection to them.

#1 Write down the numbers of friends I have met through FFXI again and put them down in a place where I dont lose them.

#2 10% more Focus on college

#3 Play Monopoly

Pretty much it. FFXI has become more of a glorified chat room. Just recently my goal for Maat's Cap ha withered away. I don't even care for it anymore. Sold all my jobs gear that is under Lv75 and focused all that Gil into my currently top 75 jobs. I've not even had a normal EXP PT in almost 2 months. lol

I would be done with MMO's for good. I love FFXI, and have enjoyed it a ton, but it's just too much of a time sink. Since I got into FFXI, I haven't really played too many other games, because I feel like there's always something I need to be doing or getting done in FFXI.

It's like a "I'm gonna play some Fallout...oh wait, full moon Lightsday here soon, should prolly craft" kinda thing...

But anyways, yeah, I'd be done with MMO's. I'll give everyone my XBL gamertag on that last day, and meet up with them there for some hot "shooting each other in the face" action ^^

I had it pretty bad right away. Soon as I created Lilsanchez I had got my first job to 65ish in like 3 months, then right after I started Samurai. Gotten that up to 75 within like 3 weeks!

That was when I actually cared for the game game and not just to lounge around and chit-chat. Had a ton of great ambitions for FFXI AND RL. Even my RL ambitions has semi dissolved into nothingness. @_@ Maybe someday I'll find the will to succeed again. I'm doing quite all right living a mediocre life, but I can't live this way forever. FFXI shutting down may be just the thing I need. Who knows what may happen in between now and then.

I forgot about "Rapture". Still, don't think I will go back into MMOs, though. Offline games ftw. I love my pause buttons. <3

if FFXI shut down forever, my life would move on. I would get some offline games to play, maybe another online multiplayer game.

There are lots of servers, would be cool if they cut them down so other servers more populated. There would be anoying sides too though such as caming nms... so its a tough call but sometime would be nice to find pts quicker etc
