FFXI Nostalgia/Why did I ever stop playing!?/Let's all go back to 2009/Never forget Kujata Thread

**ronin sparthos** · 2015-06-24 09:46

XI is never getting revived. What charm the game had is long gone for her stalwarts and what made XI was the community that curated her wiki entries, delved into questions like "meat or sushi?", the HNM hunger games, the long inhuman grinds, the waiting for years for QoL patches, the small glimmers of success when you finally stopped getting fucked by the system etc etc.

That's finished. I'm hoping whatever successor can do Vana'diel proud by keeping the themes, characters and job system alive. That's all I care about these days.

As for P2P MMOs? Look no farther than XIV. You're being asked to pay monthly but you could very well stop and start at any time and really miss nothing. Play a month, devour all the casual content, ignore the hardcore raid scene then come back when that's all invalidated and start the cycle anew.

Today's MMOs make it pretty easy to start and stop if you're not interested in being at the cutting edge all the time. And unlike XI they make it clear when you're constantly junking gear.

Any Kujata peeps still check this forum? Can't believe the nostalgia bomb this thread brought on.

**kuronosan** · 2015-06-25 18:33

Of course.

**Wulfgang** · 2015-06-25 18:55

Haha I hid the living shit out of the fact that I played XI.

I, just a bit, miss the long period Bahamut was on lockdown. No more gilseller tells, no more gather bots, they all got bant and weren't replaced.
And in the months before they opened it back up, when the population was low, it was so easy to get NMs.

I never made it to the end game in FFXI, but I have many memories of the game simply because of the music and people I've met on it. The big risky adventures, especially being a noob and following someone higher level through the Sanctuary of Zi'Tah, or adventuring to Jeuno for the first time from the Valkurm Dunes. The suspense involved from having to avoid mobs in dangerous looking areas that had no BGM's in order to intensify that feeling. The best!!

I had to add another "a" when Kujata died

**BaneTheBrawler** · 2015-07-08 02:42

i had to change my name completely when Fairy died. some dick on Sylph had Bane and then quit.

**Serra** · 2015-07-08 06:41

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Valefor's Serra had long quit by then too. I remember speaking with a GM about it to see if there was anything he could do (of course there wasn't) and he was pissed too because his character had to go through the same thing. I think we ranted about it for like five minutes together. Was a good time.

**Aksannyi** · 2015-07-08 08:41

Quit well before the server merges but that's one good thing about having a unique name.

**Dizzy's** · 2015-07-08 08:45

Back on Ifrit my name was Dizzy, I had to change it to Dizzies.

Some stupid bitch stole my name on purpose then spammed my inbox with crystals when Ifrit merged with Odin...Thankfully I got my name back after a few weeks, rip Jishnu.

**BaneTheBrawler** · 2015-07-08 13:32

honestly im not all that salty about it, now. it prompted me to come up with a better name. Bane was always prompting the Batman references, and that wasn't where I got it. It's just a cool word! I didn't even know about the Batman character.

Taken from the forum post about DL kill (first NA group to do it on ramuh)

"This weakshell is absolutly pathetic. WOW YOU FUCKING NOOBS CAN TELE SPEED HACK DYNAMIS wow amazing good work on killing DL. Must have been a ligit fight right? Doubt it you fucking douche bags been cheating and hacking since day one. Your Weakshell is truly sad you have to brag about killing with 35 super must love the attention for such a weak feat I bet I can find posts of other LS's doing it with less. I guess I owe you pigs another grats for killing JOL not like its that hard when u have 900000+ in zone. Wait till CAE gets in sea and starts doing things THEY BEAT YOU TO THE COP WYRM TITLE AND MY MONEY IS ON THEM TO BEAT YOU TO THE AV TITLE.

CAE has the man power to kill DL I wonder why we didnt do it. It Is truly sad Ramuh has to bow their heads to some scum bags. THANKS CAE FOR NOT KILLING DL AND LETTING akabanescheat shell get all the glory by being the first NA ONLY LS to kill DL something that cant be taken back. But I do know one, thing they pretty much got VRTRA on lock down ur WEAKSHELL WILL NEVER GET A SHOT. why cuse you pussies cant even get around the adds of vrtra to attmpt him.

YOU FUCKS FAIL GET OVER YOURSELF YOUR NOT THAT TIGHT.

BTW RAMMSES IS A SHITTY TANK any tank in CAE has more skills than that peice of shit.

you fags better bow your head when we beat to ouyru also the last wyrm king challenge I doubt you fucks will ever attempt that because of the terrible way you deal with vrtra it truly is sad you guys claim to be the best HNM but you cannot defeat the easist cop wyrm. It's not even VRTRA THAT KILLS YOU PATHETIC FUCKS ITS THE FUCKING ROOM. so pathetic you guys cant even move on passed the add room to deal with him. you guys arnt the number one shell but ill give you one guess and its not DH.

GIVE THE SERVER A GOOD LAUGH ATTEMPT VRTRA AGAIN. and i hope the server comes out and watches how truly your pathetic weakshell is when you fucks wipe and CAE has to come in and clean up your mess. GFTO quit the game you will never be better than US."

Not sure if this has been posted yet but anyone remember Duckoverrice on Bahamut? He would end everything he said with "w ok"? Does he still browse these forums?
