in Final Fantasy XI
Japanese news website Nikkei Net has reported, as partially translated by consumer website IGN, that developer Square Enix has plans to release a sequel to the PC, PlayStation 2, and most recently Xbox 360 massively multiplayer role-playing game (MMORPG), Final Fantasy XI. According to the report, the new MMORPG is in development for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Windows Vista platforms. Details are scarce, and it is currently unknown if the game will be a direct sequel, or, like other single player Final Fantasy games, will be set within its own self-contained universe that is altogether separate from Vana'diel (Final Fantasy XI's setting).

    Hmmm, then it looks like i've only got 2-2.5 more Years of FFXI before everyone moves to its sequel ~.~, So much to do, and so limited time to do it in

    If you check Playonline.com, theyve denied the rumours were true but confirm a next gen mmorpg is in production.

    I've always wondered about this...

    Good post amigo, it's about time we get a real thread in here instead of the "Should I even try this?" "Is this worth it?" "I'm thinking about it."
    Forty three threads with those titles a week.

    Neptus - FFXI - Pandemonium
    Neptus - WoW - Detheroc

    hmm, not exactly sure if I should be excited about this or not. On one hand having a next-gen FF MMO (if it's as good as the current one) would be awesome.

    On the other hand? I like FFXI alot and I've left it once already for WoW.. which was a stupid mistake. I still haven't experienced all there is in FFXI, I don't want everyone switching over on me when I haven't even experienced all the game yet!

    As much as I don't like the first FFXI I am guessing the creators were just trying to make a offline game into a massive online community now that they have been in the mmorpg business for about 5 years and seen whats out there and what people like im sure this one will be good and more what a mmorpg should be so I think I will give it a try.

    I think SE is talking about Ring of Dominion.  It's their next MMORPG that has been in development already.  I think it has been released in Japan already, not sure.  It has not been translated to english yet, and there are no news of SE ever making an english version of it.

    From what I hear, Ring of Dominion is almost exactly like FFXI game play wise.  Very few skills and attributes, so there isn't too much variability for each class.  Not sure about the long waits to find a party, certainly hope that's gone.

    Not aware of any other MMOs that SE is developing right now.

    No Square-Enix has next-gen MMORPG in development for Windows Vista and next gen consoles.(No title name yet though)  Fantasy Earth is more PvP based from what I hear.

    if the new one is kind of mixed with WoW in that there is missions u get XP from //quests, it would make it that much better, also there hsould be sudden attacks from orcs oout of no where that if no one comes to help towns can be destroyed ect. and things u do directly effect the entire world // universe
