In my last post I considered possible implications for the upcoming FFXI adjustments in general. With this post I thought I'd take a moment to briefly comment on the various specific changes themselves. There was an awful lot going on here that put Fanfest 2009 to shame.

In 2009 the Final Fantasy XI Fan Festival had set the bar pretty low concerning any expectations for FFXI's future. And so I approached this years affair with heavy skepticism and mild interest. Could they possibly have anything new to say? It didn't seem likely there would be anything beyond the already well known areas and the usual additions like missions.
