Yeah, FFXI is really dying...

[ringthree]

Got this when I tried to log on today. I have never seen this before.

[dejet]

sever? >.> and who cares if it is! have fun lol its going to be going for years.

[Tythera]

so the most populated server by far is congested, k?

[dejet]

it made me think >.>
would this mean the other way around lol? more people logging onto that server making you not log on lol. my logic fails atm just got up.

[ringthree]

Yeah, it's Odin, but even so I have never in the entire time of playing have ever not be able to log on because of congestion.

[dejet]

so this could be a good thing no? and loloding. >.> to many people!

[ShuttleXpC]

Nothing really amazing about this, its all the free trial people congesting everything. Just because some people registered the free trial and you cannot log-in doesn't mean the game is perfectly fine.

Your logic escapes me. Please to be explaining how more people in the game means that there aren't more people in the game?

I am definitely not saying that the game is perfect, far from it, but usually a game that is dying doesn't have so many people playing it that you can't log on for the first time ever. /shrug.

peek JP time+14day free play+ fucktone of people on odin= no log on. drop SE something about it maybe they will do something. i know 10 people myself that picked it up without me telling them. think about that.

I understand the circumstances that caused the situation, that is obvious.

The important part that you are missing the novelty of not being able to log onto the game.

People playing for free does not mean FFXI is not dying, it means people are giving the game a try. Now go along and blog about this.

Another thing, if you actually think 3/4 of those accounts created are new players...that's hilarious. Most of the people I've seen even trying the free trial are people who already have accounts using the extra account for some malicious purpose.

[Lordwafik]

That's silly if they allow new accounts to be made on odin considering their constant babbling on how congested it is.

They're probably going to disperse odin again.

In before Ashira's 2 cents about how she's from odin =^-^=

Again, an obvious statement, and again, if the game was really dying a situation that would not exist.

[dejet]

its not dead/ going to. SE was just not ready to the 14day free people. thats all. give it time it will be fixed.

how many people play on odin? think about it even if 25% of the people told their friends about the 14 day thing thats up to 25% more people >.>.

[ringthree]

After I finally got on it was 6004 when I did a /sea all.

[tyven]

how the F are all you people missing the sarcasm?

[Leonock]

how the F are all you people missing the sarcasm?

I was about to say the same thing...
