You say that, and many other people say that and (over)reacted when the original statement was made in march.
I have no reasons not to believe people like you.
Yet I think about the past, about WotG. Wasn't it said that WotG would have been the "last expansion" for FFXI? Yet I don't remember as many "doomsday" reactions from people (talking about before abyssea and miniexps).
This leads me to think that the "no more mission content" surely is an important aspect, but there has to be more than that.
It's absolutely outstanding.
Way beyond my expectations.
Makes me happy but sad at the same time because I can't avoid to think what a full far-eastern based expansion would have been... (it's been my most desired/dreamed expansion since the beginning of the game
)
Regarding the Nexon thing, call me an ungrateful douche, but I'd rather see an offline version of FFXI than playing a mobile phone version of FFXI...
