"Repeat Login Campaign"

This is basically the last resort for any game developer that runs a subscription model. I mean seriously, rewarding players for logging in? That's desperate. The second bonanza this year was one thing, but literally giving rewards simply for signing in to the game is... sad. In fact for most successful games the opposite is true: gamers are provided rewards for not signing in for a while (like an exp boost, as a way to handicap people who play the game much more than casuals).

Whatever happened to gameplay content? I feel like they're going to start giving us scratch tickets as an incentive to sign in.

*sigh*

Something tells me there's a producer out there somewhere that not only cares about FFXI and loves it, but also has the intelligence to prevent this game from completely dying.

Anyways, this is just a rant. I am still shaking my head over this 'repeat login campaign'. Pathetic.

The login campaign has been extended!!!! If you accumulate 20,000, or 6-months worth, SE is giving away your choice of R / E / M !!

The worst part is that I already forgot to log in all my mules yesterday - the second freaking day. Shameful.

If I don't write stuff down I forget.

Maybe a couple months ago when Empyrean weapons were still relevant. Now not so much.
